The Rating System

All opinions are my own. We are all different. What I may think is great, you may this terrible. Don't let my opinios stop you from exploring the vast world of horror in all media.

~Mind Blowing: Search for this movie immediately. It can only be described as pure greatness and possible an instant classic.

~So Good: Highly recommended because for one reason or another it stands out above the usual fair. Put the movie on your radar as it wont disappoint.

~In the Middle: The movie is a nothing special, average affair. It may entertain in the short term but it will be easily forgettable in the long haul.

~Warning: This movie is a cliched driven slop of familiar territory. Only watch if you're really of fan of this type of material.

~Steaming Pile: The movie is absolute garbage, a complete bore, and not worth the time or effort.

Contamination (1980)

Starring: Ian McCulloch, Louise Marleau. Marino Mase
Director: Luigi Cozzi

Premise:
A ship enters New York containing a strange egg looking thing that infects and kills people once it's bursts open. A team of researches must find out it's origins.

My Take:
Sort of a low budget, Italian, Alien ripoff (pods, eggs, contamination) except the story is set on Earth and the alien was brought back with an astronaut who went to Mars. The movie managed to keep my interest though I was unsatisfied with the results.

Rating: Warning (maybe slightly better)

Watched: Amazon Prime
