Great 70s SciFi-Horror Flick

Rating: 7/10 (10 January 2011)

A crew on a spaceship receives a strange signal and they land on a planetoid. One of the crew members gets attacked by something that appears to be an alien life form. Regardless of the warnings of another member, they escort him back into the ship, along with the alien being. From there on they have to face the threat of being trapped in a ship with the aggressive alien.
The camera work and the lightning on this one are amazing. What also makes it unique is the outstanding design of the alien character.
The movie builds up very slowly and after a short while creates a very creepy atmosphere. Everyone is sitting on needles knowing that the thing is waiting for them. The characters are very believable. All in all its a more than satisfying movie : A true horror classic.
