Watch Alien Blood For Free
Alien Blood
Spoof science fiction. An alien mother and her child are pursued across England by a bunch of incompetent government agents and take refuge in a house full of vampires. Homage back to the camp tone of British directors of the 1970's such as Ken Russell, (The Lair Of The White Worm), Robert Fuest, (Dr Phibes Rises Again), and Joe McGrath, (The Magic Christian). Distributed by Troma in the U.S., it contains violence, nudity and exploding bagpipes.

If you don't like this, we can't be friends.
It’s not bad or unwatchable but despite the amplitude of the spectacle, the end result is underwhelming.
An old-fashioned movie made with new-fashioned finesse.
It is encouraging that the film ends so strongly.Otherwise, it wouldn't have been a particularly memorable film
ALIEN BLOOD is a very bizarre indie-budgeted fantasy/horror film which is heavily influenced by the old horror films of the 1960s and 1970s. It was shot in the rural wilds of Cumbria and has a plot that defies explanation, except that it features a woman being pursued by a vengeful pursuer. Oh, and aliens are involved somehow. Put out by Troma, this is an abstract, arthouse-style offering that might be described as Les Miserables meets Jean Rollin meets Fire in the Sky. Plenty of effort has gone into the visuals but the plot is real mess and the whole thing soon descends into incoherency. The lengthy slow motion sequence of the two naked women dressing each other has to be the low point here.
I happened to find this film in a double DVD pack in the bargain bin at blockbuster. 1.99 for two such spectacular sounding films!! How could anyone resist? Surely a film with a blurb that involves not only aliens but vampires as well (hence the witty title) couldn't possibly be bad? After watching the truly FANTASTIC cinematic work that is Alien Blood, I must confess I have somewhat questioned the logic of my decision. The film has, as I can see, nothing even remotely resembling a plot. The story, so far as I can tell, is about some ugly women and a spooky kid who are being chased, as the blurb says, by 'a group of killers'. Possibly some sort of bizarre 'killers day out', I don't know, this is never explained.The incredibly limited dialogue that does appear in the film (it can't be more than about 10 lines) is delivered in such a wonderfully badly acted way that it makes one want to chew off their own fist in sheer embarrassment. The cast mostly consists of blokes dressed all in black with, for some strange reason, what appears to be bandages wrapped around their heads. I think this is more than likely to disguise the fact that they are in fact all the same person as they can't actually afford more than three actors on screen at anyone time.The rest of the cast are the ugliest bunch of people you could ever hope to see and have between them the acting abilities of a damp dish cloth. The best of all being 'Dracula', who in this film appears as a Cumbrian known as 'James', during the limited time he is in this film before being shot by a (clearly not) French alien he seems to be drunk off his face. I can't help but wonder if he even knew he was in this film!! I can imagine that Sorresson woke up the day after making this film, with a bad head ache and a few empty bottles of whiskey, seeing the video tape and going 'God no!! I've done it again!' Despite being without a doubt the worse film ever made, this is truly hilarious and I would recommend it to anyone!
After purchasing this film from a nearby scrubber shop I was most astounded by its graphical brilliance. Jon Sorenson went all out on the alien special effects and in my opinion has achieved something particularly commendable. Full of twists and turns along the way, this awesome storyline kept me on the edge of my seat. I particularly enjoyed the bit where you watch a bunch of ugly losers the house for about 1 hour, the best bit being when Tom p***es on his shoe. During the film the camera crew can be heard sneezing and farting on numerous occasions which all adds to the sci-fi atmosphere. The fight seens are breath taking, the best bit being when the woman hits the butler in the face with a tray and then kicks him in the shin, OUCH!!! Overall I have given this film 10\10 and I expect you will do the same when you have seen it, go buy it now it only cost me £15.99 for the DVD, BARGIN!!!
This film is a unique vision, outside any genre placement; despite its' being ostensibly science fiction.What might have been possible with a larger budget who knows, given that it uses CGI before that medium had been either properly defined or developed.Perhaps large amounts of money wouldn't have been an answer, but there's no doubt it would have helped the film reach a larger audience. It's been said often enough, but it's still true: Funding ten low budget films, giving new directors a chance, is more likely to reveal that elusive new vision than a single 'formula' blockbuster for the same money.
