I rented this movie many, many years ago because the title interested me. I was exposed to possibly the worst movie ever made which left me bitter and very angry.

No one important

I have just received this movie and can't wait to watch it, it really cant be that bad.

I think...the actors are very very bad

Just got it from Netflix, it is bad, very bad. But in a good way, if you enjoy bad movies its worth a look. It has its own charm (thats probably not the right word)

Biohazard was really good too.

I think Fred Olen Ray is a cool dude.  

By now he's directed and produced dozens of low budget action/horror/sci-fi flicks, and this was only his second one and his first "real" production.

While this is not a comedy as such, you can't take most of Fred's productions seriously in any way.  They are just good old fun, silly movies like they used to show at the drive-in theaters back in the 1950's and 1960's.

Taken on that basis, I found the Alien Dead to be a fun way to waste 90 minutes, and old-timey movie star Buster Crabbe does a great job as the old coot.

An enjoyable bad movie.  Since most of these comments were left here, this movie has come out on DVD.  The DVD is well worth getting, and includes an informative commentary track by Fred himself...this commentary track is required listening if you are an aspiring low budget and/or horror film maker yourself. :thumbup:

Quote•   5 mins - Why does it sound like someone farting in a tub while we watch footage of space?  :buggedout:
•   10 mins - Stuck to the seat were we? (You'd have see the scene and hear the sound.)
•   16 mins - Focus... ...ahm... ...focus... ...focus damn it!
•   25 mins - This band's lead singer must be a ventriloquist.  :bouncegiggle:
•   28 mins - Half a person is breathing? And the dog's eating it too.  :buggedout:
•   33 mins - The boat sounds just like a chainsaw.
•   38 mins - That's the same boat Tom and Shawn had earlier but now these two hicks must have bought it. Should have purchased the motor too.
•   41 mins - RANDOM GRATUITOUS BREAST SHOT!
•   71 mins - The truck is on a two lane paved road, no - a dirt road, no - a one lane paved road. Hey, what gives?  :bouncegiggle:

Now THAT chased away the Monday blues.  :thumbup:
We shall meet in the place where there is no darkness.
