Jim Wynorski directed this somewhat interesting remake of the original Roger Corman classic. Arthur Roberts plays the alien from Davanna who is seeking human blood to replace the supply on his home planet.
Enter Traci Lords as the nurse who takes care of him and you have an exploitation masterpiece that only has one flaw as far as I can see, and that is too much stock footage from Humanoids From The Deep.
I enjoyed the heck out of this film, but I am sure there are film purists who didn't, but to each his own. Shout Factory must again be thanked for making this available with a beautiful transfer and a great interview with Traci. Recommended!!
