Review Summary
This movie is good or bad according to peoples tastes. Here's a basic story line. A American and British shuttle goes to Haley's comet and find an alien spaceship. Inside are 3 humanoid aliens. 2 men and a hot space babe played by Mathilda May. The hot space babe or 'space girl' is completely nude through the whole movie. There's a total of 2 scenes when she has clothes on and soon the clothes are taken off. Anywho, the shuttle arrives in orbit around Earth everyone dead but the aliens. Of course we take them to Earth, Britain I believe where the space babe wakes up and sucks the 'lifeforce' from this gaurd. Excellent graphics as he shrinks to nothing but skin and bones. Then she escapes leaving a couple bodys behind. They discover the captain of the shuttle(Railsback) in an escape pod and bring him to Britian(London?) to help find space babe. She hides her body and moves from body to body for awhile, with a Colonel(Firth) and the Captain trying to find her. They do and discover a couple things like why he survived when everyone else died. And then she returns to her body and they don't have a clue where. Well alot of stuff happens like the city becomes lifeforce sucking vampires. And eventually the captain is drawn to her. In the end how ever he stabs her whilst they are mating and both are sucked(alive) into the giant ship that is sucking up the souls of the vampires.
