I owe much to this episode because it was my “gateway episode” for Brandon’s channel. Funny enough I was watching the trailer for Contamination and this video was one of the suggestions.
I went on TH-cam to find anything about the movie, ‘Slugs’ about a couple of months ago, and catch some scenes that I had remembered from when I first saw it years ago. I saw a great thumbnail for a review on it, and it was one of Brandon’s. Been a big fan of his ever since I went to watch that review.😁
"Yep, just shoots it in the eye. Crisis averted!" Honestly one of my favourite lines from your reviews. I've even started doing variations of it myself when riffing other movies with friends. :)
Same here. Some wonderful memories watching this with my older brother, and noticing that NONE of the gore was cut out.. on a local channel (I loved how when the first guy blows up on the cargo ship, it would flip back-and-forth to Elvira waving her hands in front of her eyes as the guy was blowing up). It didn't hurt to have my mom pop up around the corner asking "what are you watching?" right before the finale and giving her the ole "oh nothin.. just another horror movie", and being completely horrified if she came in and actually SAW what was on the tv screen.
There was a 90's Brazilian fps 'Incidente em Varginha' where you play as some guy having to save some aliens from the government as well as from some other aliens. This movie gave me similar vibes to that game.
Call me crazy, but that early scene of taking a flamethrower to a cave of eggs had me wondering if the makers of Aliens, which came out six years later, ever caught this.
Inspiration comes from all over. I've seen things in obscure and unheard of movies that are remarkably similar to things in games that were made much later. I think the original Resident Evil probably took inspiration from at least ten different weird old films we've never even heard of.
Not sure if you are aware of this, but Romero was originally to write and direct Resident Evil and it was suppose to be much closer to the game. Time for a Jill Sandwich.
I'm not going to lie, I like the status quo "everyone lives happily ever after" endings. I used to dig the fucked up endings, to an extent, but now in my life things around me are too depressing as they are and when I turn to entertainment I'm looking to escape this fucked up world.

Excellent review. All your hard work is paying off. Thank you very much. By the way, (fun fact) Luigi wanted Caroline Munro in the lead but, the film's producer didn't for some reason.
No joke; there's an Italian actress called Caroline Munro. She's the female helicopter pilot that Roger Moore blows out of the sky in "The Spy Who Loved Me", and was the princess in "Sinbad's Golden Voyage".
That film was made it in Barranquilla, Colombia too. I loved to see mi city in 80s the hotel is "Hotel el prado" and the coffee company was Café universal, today not exist.
The Cyclops is...fairly impressive, I guess; sure, unlike the Xenomorph Queen (or even the alien cucumber creature in It Conquered the World) it's firmly stuck in one place, but the crew working behind it is giving it all the life they can and its method of devouring Kramer head-first is pretty squicky. But seriously, who knew that squib torsos could become boring? (Note to whoever's remaking The Fury...don't overdo the corpseplosions.) Thank goodness for (The) Goblin. I can't watch Contamination in one sitting, but I can listen to its soundtrack album.
I remember watching video nasties in the 80s and seeing the trailers for Contamination and The Living Dead at Manchester Morgue back to back, and they were always about 15 minutes long, practically showing you all the best bits of the movies.
I think Luigi Cozzi also made a psycedelic godzilla (Cozzilla) film, and with the huge demand for a godzilla film review this movie could probably be fitting? (not sure though)
Oh geez... I watched this years ago, and had forgotten everything about it aside the guy's death by alien vore... Not knowing which film it is has bugged me for ages. Thank you for finally putting that question in my mind to rest.
you know in Alien the point of the chest burster was to give birth to a new Alien. can someone tell me what the point of the chest bursting was in this movie? was it just to kill people? wouildnct guns be faster and more effective at that? poison gas? germ warfare?
Yeah, that's why that ending shot makes no sense, the alien that laid those eggs is dead, so no more eggs. Sure a few more people might die, but there's no more egg supply.
It's your typical "Italians see ALIEN, chest burster grabs people's attention, so hey! Let's have chests bursting with eggs in it!" It didn't have to "make sense", it just have to have alien eggs and chests bursting.
Im rewatching this one right now, and it just hit me how much the monster looks like Phantoon from the Metroid games. Does anybody know if theres any connection? I cant find where the inspiration for Phantoon's design cane from.
Brandon....interesting note....one of the reasons that Italian directors would "Americanize" their names was simply for distribution purposes. In a lot of the tradeshows win for an investors, and most the time American investors or distributors, would come and try to pick up movies to see if they could pass off as the real deal, they would gravitate towards Italian exploitation. They were usually just presented with a poster with very few names attached to it. That way, not even the investor would really see how many foreign people worked on the production. This proved handy when going straight to video towards the mid-80s after their run on grind house circuits.
Also, in some instances, it was done as a sort of "Alan Smithee" deal. Basically if a director wanted to distance himself from the project but had contractual obligations, they would do this as well. Bruno Mattiei comes to mind. Forgive the typos
"I want to take a shower!" Hmph. Well ya better take two, lady, cuz you *stink!* :P Also, excellent self control, resisting the urge to joke about the "NO MOLESTE" sign. "Time to come"..."to the cyclops!" But on that one you just plain weren't paying attention! That alien looks so much like Phantoon from Super Metroid. Also, the way he took it down with just one bullet right to the eye was totally like an old school Resident Evil final boss defeat cut scene! Really reminded me of Dead Aim (most underrated game ever), but too bad this film's hero fellow didn't have a real one-liner handy. :I
terrible movie... i remember watching this few years ago and thinking to my self the same thing you said in your video "theres nothing going on on this shit"
So the cop that’s been in the whole movie dies 5 minutes before the end while the astronaut we meet halfway ends up surviving. It’s like somebody watched Jaws and reversed the Brody and Quint roles.
It's actually from this movie, but they reused it in Hell of the Living Dead. In fact, most of Hell of the Living Dead's soundtrack is from other movies...
7.00 They go to see Hubbard the only 'Survivor' from the Mars mission (Get it? Ian McCulloch from Terry Nation's Survivors). Oh, and... the cyclops monster is rather like the creature from the Space: 1999 episode Dragon's Domain.
I was reading the Wikipedia page for giallo films while watching this and I read "the Italian band Goblin" at the exact same time he said "the Italian rock group Goblin". Weird.
strangly, this movie has some parallels with a Space 1999 episode called, Dragons Domain, specifically an astronaut, played by an Italian actor who finds a monster in space, no one believes him, and the monster cab telepathicly coerce it's victims into letting it eat them. Then it spits their burned husks back out.
I've seen this movie before and I never thought it was an Alien knockoff, it's more like a Quatermass movie with Quatermass removed. So there's no hero, lots of people dying and no resolution or summation by an old guy telling us what we learned. What would be different? There'd be an old guy telling us we'll do better next time.
Ummm, what? How did the cyclops get to earth? Why does it lay alien hand grenades? Why is this movie called contagion? Was something contagious? I'm just going to shake my head and back away slowly from this one.
I remember here in Spain, this movie came with the powerful title of "CONTAMINATION: ALIEN INVADES EARTH" on those years, the video rent shops was full of italian ALIEN cheap copies, like that, or "ALIEN2" (Alien sulla terra) that add to all those other italian exploit movies about zombies, post-apocaliptic road warriors, or sword & sorcery barbarian adventurers.
Hey Brandon, I know you propably have at least the next 5-10 reviews planned already, but how about after this Alien-Month (which so far has been one of your best theme months) a review of an extremely cheesy Taiwanese Martial Arts flick, Return Of The Kung Fu Dragon.
Season 1, episode 8, "Dragon's Domain". The monster is hokey-looking but the screams it made really sold it. I was a youngster when it premiered. Still remember it to this day.
Oh boy, looking forward to Lily Cat. That anime brought up a valid and interesting point about hypersleep and nicely seeded points related to it through the movie leading up to it. Also, there's an alien, I guess.
Hmm.....the beginning scene in the ship reminded me of The Relic. Investigating a ship that's full of dead bodies, a jump scare.....yep, sounds like The Relic. Which happens to be another Alien clone. Sort of.
"... has gone from being Scarface to Cosmo Kramer." Funny, really funny. And you just had to wait until I had a drink, too. Waterworks galore. Then again, watching a movie like that, I guess, "sober" is not a option.
4:46 I have a pet rat that looks just like that named Buffy. I almost puked when I saw that! And you were right, you can't have a sci-fi movie without cruelty to animals.
Always thought this was one of THE Goblin's better soundtracks. Kind of a meh film though. And neat, you're going to do Lily C.A.T. A old Saturday Anime favorite of mine.

I saw this one as a little kid in 1981 when I was 6 years old on TV as part of the "Elvira, Mistress of the Dark" show.
Same here. Some wonderful memories watching this with my older brother, and noticing that NONE of the gore was cut out.. on a local channel (I loved how when the first guy blows up on the cargo ship, it would flip back-and-forth to Elvira waving her hands in front of her eyes as the guy was blowing up). It didn't hurt to have my mom pop up around the corner asking "what are you watching?" right before the finale and giving her the ole "oh nothin.. just another horror movie", and being completely horrified if she came in and actually SAW what was on the tv screen.
Elvira Mistress of the Knockers.
I just watched your "Galaxy of Terror" review, and now this one, and I must say, I love that intro!
Such an awesome and underrated channel. Keep up the great work.
There was a 90's Brazilian fps 'Incidente em Varginha' where you play as some guy having to save some aliens from the government as well as from some other aliens. This movie gave me similar vibes to that game.

As a fellow bass player I also appreciate the funk.
I love how so many 70s and 80s movies have downer endings where everything was for nothing.
I'm not going to lie, I like the status quo "everyone lives happily ever after" endings.
I used to dig the fucked up endings, to an extent, but now in my life things around me are too depressing as they are and when I turn to entertainment I'm looking to escape this fucked up world.
the 70's in American film making was infamous for this
Where everything was for nothing = All for naught
Chinatown and Black Christmas are both good examples

Excellent review. All your hard work is paying off. Thank you very much.

No joke; there's an Italian actress called Caroline Munro. She's the female helicopter pilot that Roger Moore blows out of the sky in "The Spy Who Loved Me", and was the princess in "Sinbad's Golden Voyage".
And she's hot. Although Marilyn Monroe would have proven to have been an interesting choice, considering she'd been dead for a very long time.
She's actually English-she just happened to be in a several Italian films as well as English and American films
I think she lived/lives in Italy.
i love seeing your channel grow slowly but steadily :)
Green alien chickens!! That explains the green eggs.
Literally just checked your channel for a new review, good timing I guess! The infiltration of the factory later on reminds me of Quatermass 2.
I wish he'd review the Quatermass films/miniseries!
03:01. The Chief's powers of observation is spectacular. Give that man a Nobel Prize... for being so obvious. :)
That film was made it in Barranquilla, Colombia too. I loved to see mi city in 80s the hotel is "Hotel el prado" and the coffee company was Café universal, today not exist.
that cyclops looks like it came out of an episode of H.R. Puffnstuff
One of my favorite Italian horror movies. Mindless fun that only the Italians can do so well
It's chestbusting awesome.
I commend you for being able to sit through this dumpster fire. Very entertaining review for a very dull movie. Great job!
I remember I rented this vhs when i was a child and I spent the whole movie waiting for Ripley to show up.
😆

Cozzi also directed two Hercules movies starring Lou Ferrigno.
Whaaaaaaaat.
A guy named Hubbard who claims he has secret knowledge about aliens.
Sounds familiar...
This is the second Italian cash-in of a famous '70s American movie I've seen where the hero screams "DAMN YOU!" before blowing up the monster
"Don't call me a young man"... lol
Funny. The actor who plays the astronaut Hamilton used to captain the German version of Love Boat. He died just recently.

Me when I saw this video in my subscription feed: "Alright, who's going to get ripped apart in this episode?"
You know, this reminds me of the Quatermass movie - Quartermass 2: Enemy from Space. A 1950s sci-fi horror movie.
"I want to take a shower!" Hmph. Well ya better take two, lady, cuz you *stink!* :P

Best way to pass the time while at work !

Hard to believe this was made AFTER Alien...
evidently Luigi Cozzi wanted Caroline Munro but the producers said no. they told him the wanted someone "ugly"
