    An underrated sci fi horror classic

    Pretty cool flick. One of my favorite sci fi horror films. I saw it on screen when I was a kid and it scared me to death . One of a kind..featuring Steve Railsback (Helter Skelter 1976) and Patrick Stewart ( Star Trek TNG, X-Men). I highly recommend. From director Tobe Hooper (Texas Chainsaw Massacre, Poltergeist).

    "Lifeforce" should be called "Laughforce"

    Steve Railsback plays an astronaut on a joint American-British mission to explore Halley's Comet. He discovers a derelict alien spacecraft which contains a beautiful - and completely naked - space vampire played by French actress Mathilda May. Through a series of unlikely plot convolutions the Space Girl ends up in London, where she wanders around naked infecting people with the vampire disease until Railsback finally kills her and himself by driving a sword through both their naked bodies. This is one of those movies where the audience never reaches the minimum level of "suspension of disbelief." Every new plot twist is less believable than the one that proceeded it, and the silliness level rises to the point that the only positive consequence is laughter. Seeing Mathilda May is almost worth the price of admission, but otherwise this film should only be viewed by people like myself who enjoy unintentionally hilarious filmmaking.

    Great sci-fi sleeper, with first rate talent both sides of the camera. Minor problem; no subtitles, and a poor quality soundtrack. Of course, the plot has major holes anyway.

  • Great Sci-F- horror entertainment!

    This is one of my favorite Sci-Fi flicks! It has been underrated for decades like "The Thing" or "Dune" I wanted for a long time to add it to my collection!

  • Space invaders consume humanities "life force" in a "Trump" like way.

    Frank Finlay at his best.
