What the hell IS this movie?

[Dolph Lundgren]

Oh my god, words can't even describe this one.  X-Entertainment has an article reviewing a movie called Nukie, which looks like a cross between E.T. and Mac and Me, and, although I'm sure it's inferior to the genius that is Mac and Me, I bet it's better than E.T.  Anyways, have any of you guys ever heard of this movie?  Or are privileged enough to have seen it?  God, just watch the video clips.. I'm legit cracking up over here, I can't believe what I'm seeing.  I'm betting that SOMEONE on this board has seen this movie.  Maybe I'm making too much of a big deal out of this movie, but it looks hilarious.

Anyone ever even heard of/seen this movie?  Here's the link:

Several people around here have seen it.  I know where I can rent it but, along with Star Crystal, haven't quite worked up the nerve to

I haven't seen it, but it has been reviewed at B-notes.  The review covers the whole movie, so be warned.

Of course, judging by the review, this baby can't be spoiled; it's already there...

Dude thanks, I've been looking for this movie since I saw it on Showtime in 94 which was when I was 14. There is a part 1 to this one I remember with the kid from "Flight of the Navigator" be sure and check it on the IMDB. Either it is part one or another movie with a cute ET looking creature also with large ears.

Thanks,
Tito

Way back when my wife and I had just bought our video player and it was a brand new toy, she hired a clutch of videos.  One of them was "Star Crystal".  

My comment on it?   Well, you know that scene in "The Thing" when Palmer see's Norris' head growing legs and running away?  And you know his comment?  Well that's mine!

"Of course, judging by the review, this baby can't be spoiled; it's already there..."

Yif.  Tell me about it.

I wish I could remember off hand which one it was.  I think it was Exorcist III.  Plot exposition describes a priest who'd administered an exorcism that turned particularly horrible; his hair turned white overnight.

Nukie gave me a lot of white hairs.  Someday when I tire of this life, I may watch it back-to-back with Mac and Me.

How bad was it?  Apostic stopped reviewing for a year and a half rather than complete his review of Nukie.  It was THAT bad.

(All right, the googletuple bypass surgery probably contributed too...)

Shoulda done a little more looking around before posting.  I didn't know this movie was so well-known amongst the b-movie community.  Anyways, thanks for all of the comments.  If I ever see this movie for cheap, I just have to see how bad it truly is.  If b-movie guys are saying it's bad, then it must be absolutely horrendous.
