The plot is....well, uh...it's...very confusing. Basically, it's about the last remaining humans from an attack on the world by an alien robotic race called Ro-men and one of the Ro-man's mission is to kill the survivors. The story has so many plot holes that if I point them all out, will be here forever.
The Monster of the film has to be one of the silliest monsters I've ever seen on film. It has a Gorilla body; it wears a scuba diving helmet with an antenna on it; and speaks it in a badly acted Robotic voice. Instead of actually killing the survivors, it spends most of the time walking around in a cave; contacting the ruler of the Ro-man race; threatening the family by some how contacting them, but doesn't seem to know their location; and playing with a Bubble Machine (What the Hell?). The Ro-man also has a love interest, but that's played in a very dull way. What I don't understand about this Monster is why does it take him so long to find a simple family of survivors? He has high intelligence and high tech equipment, but it takes him forever to locate a family? Next thing you're going to tell me is that he can't open pantry doors. I also wonder why can't the leader kill these humans if he has all the power and equipment? He can kill them by just using his powers and not even leave his lair. I'll never understand these Ro-man.The family of survivors is just straight out bland and their acting is god awful and annoying.
The special effects are just completely terrible. Whenever the Ro-man destroys something with it's ray; we get an annoying sound effect and so many flashing lights that it's enough to hurt a person with epilepsy or worse damage a person's eyes. Even when the leader uses his powers at one point, it looks so phony that it's laughable. The only special effects that are good is the random Dinosaurs and creatures that show up and destroy the planet, but sadly that wasn't made for the film, it's stock footage from better films. The film was made to be a 3-D film for the time, but the only 3-D effect I see in this movie is that stupid Bubble Machine. The movie is only an hour and 2 minutes long and guess what, it has AN INTERMISSION! I guess the only thing that's kind of cool is the cave where the Ro-man lives, because that cave has used in so movies. The cave is best known as the entrance to the Batcave in the 1966 Batman show starring Adam West.
This is indeed a terrible movie. It's so terrible that the director tried to kill himself with a gun. I was expecting this film to be so bad that it's funny, but no it's not funny, it's ridiculous. I don't highly recommend it, but it's one of those movies that's so bad and ridiculous that you just have to see it for how bad it is, especially with the Ro-Man character who never stops being laughably ridiculous.
RATING 2/5
