Description: Space Expedition explores comet Halley and stumbles upon a new form of intelligent life – a sort of space vampires who draw energy from their victims. After taking away the monsters in theface of a very beautiful naked woman and two men on board, the astronauts made ​​a terrible mistake. Not only all of them except one have died, vampires have penetrated the Earth, where they began a massive billet of lifeforce, taking it from the people to turn into something like a zombie. All this is reminiscent of the end of the world.

Review: In the distant future traveling near Comet Halley space crew finds lost in the starry expanse of giant ancient ship, which is stored in the belly of the body in suspended animation for the perfect beauty of people. The bodies will be transported to Earth, where come to themselves and begin the process of capture of the planet, sucking the lifeblood out of its inhabitants. Fantastic film from the classic thrash movie Touba Hooper on the famous novel by English writer Colin Wilson “Space Vampires”, written in 1976, was shot nine years after the publication of the book on a very solid for those age 25-million budget, which, however, not paid off.

I watched the movie Lifeforce and read the novel, and I can say that the film, unfortunately, came out a little worse. Of course, this movie is a childhood movie, I have seen a long time ago and causing a deep sense of nostalgia, so the review it was a pleasure. But if the novel was a first science-fiction detective, strongly written and fascinating, where the emphasis was placed on the investigation and prosecution of people traveling on the bodies of space vampires, Hooper decided to add here a little action, so that for the final tape to see some scenes of mass disaster roam flooded flaming zombies London, and one of the main characters running around the streets with some strange sword in an effort to pierce them extraterrestrial invaders.

As a result, the film director’s innovations as it is divided into three parts. The first – to find the ship and delivery beings, and – their awakening, the most interesting. Second – The leader of the persecution of space vampires, much more boring. Well, the finale begins mass action. In the film, there is no harmony, and – sadly – no need talent. One introductory scene to find unprecedented in size vehicle can be removed so that the audience would be running around mad, but the director of her crumpled and cut the maximum, having lost that wonderful atmosphere in the book. All too quickly, so that the audience just does not have time to penetrate.

But there is a movie that struck me then, and again impressed now. This actress, who plays vampire matriarch – Mathilda May, for which it is the appearance on the screen was the debut. Director was to find a reference to the role almost a woman, the one whose image is as close to the dreams of most men, the ideal of femininity. And he almost succeeded. In any case, found the girl in the picture looks just great, bewitching beauty. And besides, most of the film she goes naked, that is good.

In general, the film “Lifeforce” is not particularly remarkable, although interesting. On shesterochku. But for the nostalgic, good special effects for the time and Mathilda May gave him eight points.
