Lifeforce Review
Review of Lifeforce (1985) by screenqueeen: π 4/5
HOOPTOBER 9.0 12/32
Hooper directs a Dan O'Bannon ALIEN-like story, but if the aliens made their way to Earth. The way the creatures' abilities even out naturally throughout the film through Hooper's visuals of the fantastic and grotesque he does so well makes this already a contender for my favorite film of his. This is all based on the theatrical cut, and I'm convinced this will need to be revisited anyway. The fact that this feels like a different version of PLANET OF THE VAMPIRES (one with a lot more fighting and struggling than talking and space shots) makes me extremely happy. I'm glad this has gotten the big 4K upgrade.
