Galaxy Of Terror (1981) Ultra gory Roger Corman sci-fi horror cheesefest. I did actually like this a lot more than I expected to. It is very confusing at times but things make sense as it progresses and as the death scenes get more bizarre and warped. These are very very good but also despite the cheesiness of the setting, characters, dialogue there is still an oppressive atmosphere with some surprisingly majestic set pieces for such a low budget production. There are a lot of familiar horror fan friendly faces here-Sid Haig and Robert Englund to name a couple but there's a few others too. It does even feel rewarding while you unravel what is actually going on but the messy delivery may not suit everyone as will the frustrating lack of clarity some scenes possess as you have piece it all together in a weird retrogressive way that for me means I will enjoy watching this again :)
