DVD : Galaxina [1980] (REGION 1) (NTSC)
Galaxina may well be the dumbest, most boring science fiction film ever made. I was revving up to launch a full-scale assault of a review before the infinitely long opening credits ended - but now two things are holding me back. First of all - and heaven only knows why - this thing started to grow on me toward the end.

Second of all - and more importantly - the tragic death of Dorothy Stratten looms large over Galaxina. This beautiful young woman, who really wasn't all that bad an actress, never lived to see its release - or her twentieth birthday. Hers is not the only ... Read More:

4.The Incredible Melting Man [1977] starring: Alex Rebar, Burr DeBenning, Myron Healey, Michael Alldredge, Ann Sweeny

DVD : The Incredible Melting Man [1977]
It's a low budget affair as you would expect and starts with stock footage of spaceships floating around.

It relies on spurious 'scientific' reasoning (radiation from looking at the Sun through the rings of Saturn) to explain the astronaut Steve West's affliction. The plot then cuts straight to his hospital bed.

Similar to 'The Quatermass Experiment' in many ways, the 'creature' , (Steve) displays very little signs of humanity and is totally anonymous.

The film seems more about the guy trying to catch him - Dr Ted Nelson and his pregnant wife. The film revolves around their relationship and the threat Steve poses to their happiness.
