S1E23: Galaxy of Terror/Tentacles, Tentacles, Tentacles Booze and B-Movies

    • Film Reviews

A low-budget warm-up to Aliens. A rescue party is sent to investigate a crashed vessel. Tentacles keep popping out of places. An unseen force kills off the the landing party one-by-one, using their greatest fears against them. It's a pyramid, just like the ones in Egypt. Coincidence?

If you've ever read Sphere by Michael Crichton or watched the movie adaptation, you kinda get the idea.

The guy who plays Freddy Krueger doesn't get killed, but also doesn't make it to the end of the movie. WHERE DID HE GO??

Galaxy of Terror Final Grades

Steve: James Cameron works magic on a Roger Corman budget. A likeable movie with better set dressing, costumes, direction and production than Ol' Rog usually gets. 4.2897/5

Brandon A not-as-scary space thriller. Missing a bit of psychological aspect that could have made up for a evil creature/force that's barely on camera. But, overall, a pretty good movie. Mostly a fun watch. 4/5

Cocktail of the Week:
Trader Steve's Lemon Gin Refresher

1 1/2 oz Old Tom Gin

3/4 oz Limoncello

1/2 oz Fresh-Squeezed Lemon Juice

Trader Joe's Lemon & Ginger Seltzer

Pour the gin, limoncello, and lemon juice in a Collins glass over ice. Stir to combine and top with the seltzer.

Cocktail Grade: A very refreshing spin on the classic Collins. Good flavor. Easy to drink. Makes you happy. 5/5
