I love space movies, especially of the 80's, but sadly most of them are pretty terrible. I ment to rent Star Crystal for years but never got around to it. The cover was appealing and the explanation on the back of the box didn't make it sound half bad. Finally I picked it up at a video store on the sale rack for a buck. Got home and popped it in. Sadly to say, was was truly disappointed. It was a chore sitting through the film. Most low-budget sci/fi films can get by if they have even just an ounce of good acting. Sadly Star Crystal lacks any good acting at all. It just ends up being another Alien rip-off much like the movie Creature (Creature is far better though) as an alien is released from a "star crystal" and attacks the crew one by one.Cheesy effects and bad acting, with a silly twist at the end makes this film easily forgotten allowing no one t sob or cry if it never comes to DVD. Not as bad as Roger Corman's early 80's space adventures, but pretty close. * out of *****

Contains minor spoiler content. . . (but hey, for this movie, who cares?) If there is anyone in the world who truly liked this film, get them to a shrink quick, because this film is truly one of the worst ones ever. Between the horrible acting, the terrible script (guess what the African American character likes? Yup, that's right. . . fried chicken!), the computer made out of corrugated cardboard (you can see the corrugations along the edges, and yes, it bends) the mostly SEDENTARY alien (except of course for his tentacle), and the ending that makes Barberella look like high art, this movie reaches new lows. The only redeeming quality? If ever there was a movie that deserved to receive the MST3K treatment, it's this one. It is a great movie to rent if you feel like popping something in the VCR, turning the volume all the way down, and providing your own dialogue (although some of the characters lines are so laughable they have to be heard to be believed.) BIGGER SPOILER -- and yes, at the end, the Alien finds Jesus and there's a music montage of humans and aliens cavorting. Or something. Ed Wood would be proud.

Set in 2032, as missions from Earth are being sent to explore Mars. After two groups of astronauts are mysteriously killed following the discovery of strange artifacts on the martian surface, the crew of the SC-37 go in to try and find out what happened. They soon learn what became of their predecessors when a bloodthirsty space monster begins lunching on members of the crew. Will any of them make it back to Earth alive? Pretty poor "alien" rip-off has lots of slime and gore, useless acting, poor editing in the "attack" scenes, and a horrible "Psycho" rip-off score (Man, that was so obnoxious!). Not worth your time.

A slimy, tentacled creature boards a spacecraft and quickly dispatches half of the crew before discovering religion and realizing that killing is wrong. You heard correctly. The creature gets on-line and reads up on some bible quotes and, in the bizarre twist ending, befriends the two survivors and plays Chinese checkers. Subpar sci-fi entry on every level, from the poor acting, directing, set design. And the endlessly long scenes of characters crawling through tunnels. Not to mention the creature that looks like a giant sock that someone sneezed on. The biggest problem is that it kills off the crew too quickly. So for the last 45 minutes we're stuck with the two survivors watching the stars, eating soup, crawling through tunnels, etc. Skip this one.

The first part of the movie was pretty dire, and the acting was really awful,but it got better after most of the crew apart from 2 were killed. Some reviewers have commented that the movie is another cheap Alien rip off but it isn't really. It does change direction from gooey killings to ET type Alien but I thought that was a nice direction to go with the movie. Some commentators have knocked the effects but I didn't really notice them; most Sci Fi space films have pan views of the ships in space and this was no different. The interior of the ship was adequate and was OK for a mid 80s sci film. I didn't understand why there was no walking decks as most of the ships access seemed to be through claustrophobic tunnels. You'll either hate it or be satisfied with it. It isn't a great movie by any stretch of the imagination but it is more than watchable. When I first put it on I fell asleep bored out of my head, but I gave it another go and I am glad I did.

i love the plot even if it was old kudos to everybody that made this movie a hit because it was piloted after a video game i thought and the music was perfect i also wonder if this movie try to compete with silent running a old space movie similar to the pilot of battle star galactic the near version win grace park and other continue the battle star legacy with the name and Cammand training on all ships in space and at sea on planet earth. anyway no i would never her a song from Acadia or silent running but if they did a back to back of movie like this i would be surprised at the station rating if they we spooled old film and add it to TV maybe if it pass in rating maybe the government would consider the copy-rite laws did deep into the vaults and maybe play these movie because science has been explained a lot better by different stars. and i think if these actors are still around because there alders they should get a Oscar or Grammy or Juno award because star crystal was good for it time but now it like other movies cant be archived like music on any movie site even Bit Torrent Junky when it starter up in the year in the year of 05 finishing in 2012 because the company closed it door because they did not want a law sauté because the copy-rite laws are new and most site no them cover to cover. great movie and this movie's like star crystal will be missed forever.

I can't begin to try and get across how absolutely awful Star Crystal is. I knew it was going to be bad, but nothing could prepare me for this pile of steaming doo. The acting makes most grade school plays look like Oscar material. I mean, did these people really yell "cut", and then pat each other on the backs for a job well done? More often than not, the sets are just a black stage with a spotlight on the "actors", and the ships are nothing more than dime store models dug up from a garage sale. Lets not forget the alien. Where's the alien from the box cover??? THAT is the movie I wanted to see. The alien here looks like a slimy reject from Fraggle Rock! Worse yet, this mess was supposed to have had some resemblance to a sci-fi horror movie, but instead turns into the Muppet Family Hour at the end! Thank God for my DVD player's fast forward function. I would have never gotten though the last 30 minutes without speeding this trash heap up to warp 6. My grade: F (and that's still to kind)

Oh this wasn't good. Far from it! The problem here is that isn't entertaining and it seems to get worse as it goes along, but 'Star Crystal' is a hard one to get your head around. Everything looks bare bones and it is. But what does it in, is that it just lounging about aimlessly. It was completely dull and uneventfully drawn out. Wooden performances, drably second-rate sets and vapid dialogues in the mould of 'Alien (1979)'. Truly routine, but a z-grade rehash! We get some tentacle action as the meagre crew are quickly picked off when they encounter the threat. So it's the survival of the fittest, with some minor hopeless diversions. Then it spontaneously changes course in the last 10 minutes (you'll see), and I don't know what the film-makers were thinking. It was so unhinged and ridiculous; you could be mistaken in asking "Was it the same movie?" However talk about cheese super cheesy and laughable! 'can we just get along?' And wait for the sweetly weeping closing song about crystal Oh why? Saying it was goofy is an understatement, but hey you can't see this one coming. The special effects must have received top-billing, (no it did, but scrap the meteor shower sequence) with few icky inclusions and dashes of blood, but it's still a spotty display. The creature is mixture of a slug and fluorescent E.T., as we watch it morph from a puddle that dripped off some outerspace crystal. The score has that dreamy, soft edge that seems to meld in quite well.

I remember watching this one as a child and it was not exactly the most original movie starting out. Clearly one of the many "Alien" clones out there this one features the ship that takes on a crystal and said crystal spawns an alien. I shall call said creature star creature for the purposes of this review. Well star creature methodically kills the crew of this vessel and he does so very quickly with kills that are typical of low budget horror. We have the typical vent scenes, a lab death and things of that nature. Star creature seems nearly indestructible as plan after plan fails to stop this beast from killing the crew. Then we are down to the last two members of the crew and it is time for the final showdown, right? No, wrong! It is time for the people to become friends with star creature and make the first part of the film with all the death a distant memory as this alien becomes friendly. You get scenes of him and the last two survivors helping each other and having a fond farewell scene. Excuse me, star creature butchered the rest of the crew and now it is friendly? I mean it tries to explain that it was defending itself, but really now how much danger is a creature that is nearly indestructible really in, seriously? At least they did not have the last two remaining crew throw their arms around the thing at the end and go "we are going to miss you so much, star creature". Though I can see the female going "goodbye, though I still don't understand why you killed everyone" and the guy going "shut up, it is almost gone and we will finally not have to worry about that thing mutilating us if we happen to startle it". All in all a bad "Alien" rip off, that I will say got a bit original when the alien got friendly. Thankfully, in the "Alien" movies you never had scenes where Ripley had tea with the aliens in an effort to understand why they must shoot their offspring into the mouths of other living things to procreate.
