Review of Lifeforce (1985) by Christopher A — 22 Apr 2011
A British and American joint shuttle mission (aboard the shuttle Churchill) is up above the earths atmosphere doing research on the comet when they notice something weird clinging onto the front of it and they get a radar readout and see that it is a craft of some sort, the crew is able to get the shuttle close enough to do a spacewalk and investigate the craft and Col.
Tom Carlsen takes his crew into an open spot and sees hundreds of dead bat like creatures, and they have been drained of all of their fluids. While investigating, a portal opens up and the crew decides to go inside to check out whats actually in the inner layer of the ship.
They discover three human figures, two male and one female enclosed in some sort of crystal cases. They are all drawn to the figures and loosen their cases and bring them back upon the ship. 30 days later the shuttle is due to arrive back on earth, but when they hear no radio communication, another shuttle is dispatched to dock up with them and find out what went wrong, the entire crew of the original shuttle is found to be burnt to a crisp and the three alien figures are brought back to earth.
funnily enough, the escape pod from the shuttle is missing.......
