Damn, this shit fucking rules. I mean, what the hell, dude? This crazy mystic space demon guy, Yuko Moriyama as a badass intergalactic bounty hunter, great moody lighting and fog. It's a hell of a thing they did here. Even the comic relief is good.

I like that the villain, Zeiram, has a special character design for each act of the film, plus a surprise final form, each more unsettling and grizzly than the last. The first two aren't really separate forms, he just takes his clothes off, but they still feel totally separate. The final two forms feel like nightmares inspired by Harryhausen monsters and Carpenter's The Thing respectively.

Sweaty, grimy, goopy, violent, scary, and even funny. I didn't mention it, but the soundtrack of this film is also jaw-droppingly good. What more could you possibly want?

"Now, we'll be stripped of our license."

Needed way more iria and less of the electricians. Cool monster designs though

Feels like being dropped into the most formative mission for a cold hearted bounty hunter. But kind of executed lame. Obviously effects and character design were awesome though. Need to watch the sequel.

not as tight as some of amemiya’s other work from a plot perspective but man there is so much to love about this. the creature design in this is off the charts and the use of colour is wonderful throughout. what a good time!
