McTiernan’s "Predator" meets Kitamura’s "Versus." – Beyond Hollywood
In medieval Japan, no one can hear you scream. And no one can prepare you for the arrival of a great big honking rubber alien who wants to party in space-invader style–meaning tearing off heads and ripping out intestines. This sick extraterrestrial freak even wants to impregnate our species with its hideous jelloid babies. It’s unstoppable. It’s unkillable. It’s unbeatable! Almost–it’s not ninja-proof.
