The Alien Files

 Sometimes it makes a difference when someone like James Spader stars in a movie. He made this thriller,worth the time and the price. It works.

I bought this disk with four alien movies because I love this genre (sci-fi). The film ALIEN HUNTER is by far the best film of the lot and it starts off a little like STAR GATE with James Spader giving a lecture. This time he is not lecturing to colleagues but to Berkeley students; in fact, he has quite a reputation with female students. As it turns out, one of his former conquests in working at the Antarctica outpost that Spader requests to visit in order to examine a UFO.

The setting of the film remains at this ice-bound location, and here the film resembles Howard Hawkes' THE THING FROM ANOTHER WORLD (not the two THING remakes) with Kenneth Tobey and James Arness as the alien creature. At the end, we see a resemblance to CLOSE ENCOUNTERS OF THE THIRD KIND. Both of these similarities are handled in a positive manner (i.e., they give cool points to the film). Even though I predicted the end of the film as the only way the remaining humans could survive, I was pleased that this if what came about. If you have seen this film, you will know what I mean.
