Synopsis:
"A deserted ship arrives in New York
City carrying its slaughtered crew and a horrific cargo: Mutant
green eggs the size of footballs that pulsate with life until
they spray hideous chest-bursting death. But when a government
research team begins an investigation, they uncover a grisly
conspiracy of murder, space monsters and coffee. Who is harvesting
these alien hell-spores? What is their connection to a doomed
mission to Mars? And most important of all, how many actors
will die screaming in massive explosions of blood, guts and
gore?" - from DVD

My oppinion:
Contamination is a very silly movie. Resembles
Ridley Scott's
sci-fi classic Alien,
but don't think for a second that it's even close to being
as good, naturally.. The beginning and the end are good, with
some really nice gore effects of people's chests exploding
and a bloke being eaten by an alien. Problem with this movie
is the middle part, where it just gets boring. I didn't care
much for the characters and the dialogue was lame for the
most part (with a few involuntary funny comments). On the
positive side again is the cool score made by "The
Goblins". In conclusion, I probably
won't see this one again soon, but it's good enough to be
viewed once for the cool gore effects and the score.
My rating:
