Review of Femalien (1996) by N N — 21 Oct 2008
You kinda expect softcore porn with a science fiction conceit at its heart to be a little more artistic somehow. No, you don't. I actually found this in a discount bin and bought it for the title alone.
I can't really bring myself to watch it-- the one time I tried, I found the sex to overwhelm the plot (as expected) and the dorky sci-fi trappings to pretty effectively rob the movie of any... uh.
.. erotic appeal (not expected, though in hindsight probably foreseeable-- I'm not really the type of guy who fantasizes about hot alien girls curious about earthling mating rituals). But I guess if you've ever fantasized about robots or cyborgs, this movie would probably do it for you.
Otherwise, like I said, it looks really great on your sci-fi/horror shelf between The Exorcist and Freddy vs. Jason.
