Dear Creature Feature, I really enjoy Friday, and Saturday night's. I sit down with a bowl full of microwave popcorn, some chocolate candy, and a soft drink, turn out the lights, and watch the movie. I always anticipate seeing Vincent, Tangella, and Mr. Livingston.

Super Cool movie "Dead Space". Vincent, Tangella, Mr. Livingston and guest Eitan Manhoff with the cool comics were so awesome on Creature Features. Great show, I love it!

[@fultonpierce8484]

Not to be confused with the wildly popular game franchise, this movie has been compared to Forbidden Planet, Alien & Star Wars,,,, if done by Roger Corman, so Creature Features apologizes ahead of time 😜 The film does star a younger Bryan Cranston, proving he was Breaking Bad years before,,,

[@jadedheartsz]

makes me wonder if EA took inspiration from this film haha, i rented this one from Family Video in the 2000s well before I knew about Cranston so that's neat.

[@fultonpierce8484]

@@jadedheartsz I think EA may have been more inspired by Alien for the game, the way creatures could be & usually are, hiding in the shadows definitely reminds me of Alien. My older brother probably rented this one, OMG he had a sixth sense for questionable to bad movies, THANK GOD for that hot girl at that one video store who was a John Carpenter fan, went from nazi zombie surfers to The Thing, Escape From New York, etc.

[@dillipphunbar7924]

Livingston's smirk was priceless. Tangie, as cute as ever.

For a second i thought this was "Dark Side of the Moon" abd thought "Wait they showed it already"

This came out directly to blockbuster VHS I bet!

It had a very limited release.

I love how the isolation box which should be airtight has ventilation fans on the side. 24:55 So much so containing anything.

[@kkumi1782]

They'd be fairly rare, these days. Most were no longer required, by the mid-'90's.

[@Starteller]

14:47 The good old how to fix an electrical device. I miss those days

Percussive maintenance.

[@luthermcgee3767]

Ive never seen this movie before even though i'm a sci fi freak. THANKS CREATURE FEATURE.

[@michaelmertig2897]

Whats up folks with Features that make you look like Ceatures. Just found the Channel and it is so much fun. I was wondering who sings the opening Theme Song ? It is awesome some good ole Glam Sleeze Metal Thanks

I bet the Marc Singer-Bryan Cranston connection has opened up many new pathways for Six Degrees of Kevin Bacon" practitioners.

[@martinboyle9163]

Growing up, I remember buying early X-Men and She-Hulk to add to my impressive collection of E-man, The Peacemaker, Spiderman and many others from a very large stack of various comics from the 1960s that I once got at a yard sale for a song. I remember one comic I had bought had a full-page ad for Rocky Horror Picture Show action figures, but back then, I hadn't joined the cult of Rocky yet so I had no idea what having that collection would be worth today. I mean, there's Sea Monkeys and X-ray glasses, then there's iconic memorabilia. All I remember is that the price was ridiculously low, even for back then. But those were the days before knowing the thrill of attending a midnight movie.🍿 My most absolute favorite comics in my collection were the very many Tales From The Crypt, Creepy, Eerie and first-edition Vampirella comics that I'm sure would be worth much today. They had an intrinsic value far beyond the monetary to me and they served the primary purpose of being a great comic perfectly. I'd sure love to read any of those comics once again. It certainly explains why I love Creature Features and why I'm so smitten with the lovely Tangella! ❤ Great show! Best to you all!

I think I could recreate this movie with my Halloween fog machine, a few sheets of plywood and a few old TVs and some spraypaint. I might need 3 more fog machines. One thing I won’t need is more than a few dim light bulbs.

[@mikeflix1598]

I loved how Tangela took the candy from the table from corner of the screen, so classic yoink. And she slapped the butler's hand away when he touched her candy. Haha.

The intro to this show is completely AC/DC Bon Scott era. Love the intro, and yes I know it isn't really Bon Scott but it sure sounds like the way he sang. That voice would have been great after he died but we got Brian Johnson instead.

[@uncoolmartin460]

soo... you're not only a novice to creature features, but you don't know much about AC/DC either. Good job.

[@daniel_wilkinson]

So this came out 17 years before the video game. I should not expect it to bear any resemblance.

do we ever get to see Tangella in a bikini?

[@DevlinDomini]

If you can accept Corman movies for what they are, you should have a lot of fun with this one. Even more than the original, everyone seems more concerned with hooking up than about the monster.

Mark Singer from the wildly popular V mini-series from the 80s is the commander. Bryan Cranston from Malcolm in the Middle and Breaking Bad is Dr Darden.

[@jacobshelt01]

Mark singer also did beast master

[@pjhue6607]

That was surprisingly very Good cheers

[@jaxflfreebird]

Marc Singer was so overused as a sex symbol. And once again he is exploited here. He was in some movie where he ran around in a loin cloth. Just seeing images of it was enough cringe to keep me from wanting to see the movie.

[@chriswood7794]

This film is terrible. Shockingly bad special effects, paper thin plot, even the 'scary' bits are laughable. Sorry guys, it's a D+ at best. Probably more an E.

[@tackyman2011]

And starring Mark Singer and his epic nostrils!

[@TorontoJon]

Yes, the only things that have better epic flaring nostrils than Marc Singer are horses at the Kentucky Derby. I didn't realize that Marc (not Mark) Singer is a Canadian-born American actor born in Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada. ;)

Remember kids: when shooting your alien world outside views, make sure you don't pan the camera round to show all the cars in the background....

[@danieljob3184]

Marc Singer was always good at these kind of 'A-hole Hero' roles. I have long suspected that he was first pick to play Val in Tremors, the role that was filled by Kevin Bacon.

[@MrMightyZ]

He looks like Bacon’s big brother.

[@DrChrisZimmer]

If this wasn't CF, I'd swear it came from that hermetically sealed lead lined porcelain receptacle known as: The Ghoul's Vault of Golden Garbage. 🚽🚽🚽

[@RSK412]

Marc did a great job in V

[@darrenrunning5415]

Good old Roger Corman. Never one to waste that 'Battle Beyond The Stars' footage.

[@1kylecurry]

Another Roger Corman spectacular...a remake of one his own movies, "Forbidden World" from 1982 aka "Mutant". Both are a "homage" more & less to "Alien" 1979. "In Roger We Trust...".

[@troyhickman4904]

With its running time, it's not good, but at least it's over quickly (I haven't heard that phrase since my honeymoon).

[@Diamondbackf1]

Looks Sus...

[@slant757]

I never knew Dead Space was a actual movie from 1991.... always thought it was just a game.

[@yeoedwin1619]

Wonder if EA got inspiration from this movie to develop the game called Dead Space?

[@luminousfractal420]

😂😂 They stole the xenomorph from red dwarf (uk series).

[@wyqid]

One thing everyone knows is that every high tech science lab must be dark and foggy in every room.

[@msinternacional1]

I believe this is a Roger Corman flick, or a remake of his other one made in 82 called "mutant" or "forbidden world"... should get that one as well

[@harryalpert8002]

i'm that old guy that watched these cool and fun midnight movies when i was a kid in the 60s! lol! you're still making it fun! thank you!

I love the Dead Space animated movies too.

[@drewrosecrans9728]

Did anyone hear the bionic eye sound FX??? While during of being on the ship

[@carv5playa]

My review: Well it’s another bad movie that borrows ideas from Star Wars and Alien. TV guide called this movie “weak” with pretty decent monster effects although it looks more like a dinosaur than a mutated human. This is one of Bryan Cranston’s earliest roles.

[@gordons-alive4940]

It's an unofficial remake of Forbidden World. (I don't think the screenwriters of that one got mentioned in the credits - but maybe they didn't want credit. LOL.) It's the same plot, but with the sleazy elements removed. No attractive female crewmembers discussing their situation while showering together.

[@ludditeneaderthal]

There's also a canadian remake of this one from the early 00s. I guess everybody loves a lousy script, lol
