Q: In this task, you must classify if a given review is positive/negative, indicating your answer as P or N.
one of kyle mclachlan 's earlier cinematic features , this movie has had an obvious influence on such films as the terminator ( 8/10 ) , species ( 7/10 ) and the more recent , fallen with denzel washington .
plot : a science - fiction picture set in modern times , this thriller follows the exploits of an " entity " from outer space , who likes to inhabit human bodies , use them up until they are completely worn out , and then switch over to the next available receptacle .
fbi agent ( mclachlan ) and local top cop ( nouri ) are charged with the capture of this " thing " before it 's too late .
critique :
this fast - paced , urban equivalent of the thing ( 8/10 ) , checks in on all cylinders for ultra - violence ( god knows how many people died in this movie ) , action and an overall rock ' n roll attitude .
then again , how can you go wrong with an " alien " that likes the ferraris , guns , heavy metal music and sexy girls ? !
granted , the plot is n't the most elaborate of tales ( alien bad , find alien , kill alien ) , but i can honestly say that i was never once bored during the viewing of this entire picture .
i would n't recommend it to those who do n't like car chases , murders , and bland acting , but for all the rest of you out there , those who enjoy putting away their brains every now and again , sitting back , slamming back some salsa'd nachos , and relishing in the cheeze some call film . .
. have a blast ! !
two scenes to watch for are both within the first ten minutes of this gore - fest .
the opening sequence is one of the most rockin ' scenes to open any action movie , and the subsequent extra - terrestrial " transformation " is another eye - catcher .
even the late 80 's special effects were okay .
followed by the hidden ii in 1994 .
little known facts : this film was kyle maclachlan 's first non - david lynch foray into the world of feature films .
his first two movie appearances were in lynch 's wretched dune ( 4/10 ) and the sensational blue velvet ( 8 . 5/10 )
