Powered by a driving rock score, this is by turns sleek, reckless, and smoothly effective, like a Ferrari with a psycho killer at the wheel.
Derek Adams, Time Out
Rotten
A jokey sci-fi horror movie about the desperate pursuit of a vile ''thing'' from outer space.
Vincent Canby, New York Times

Too predictable, and even though wickedly fun at times, it's only halfway as awesome as it might have been.
Peter Stack, San Francisco Chronicle

Its virtues are ones that you almost never encounter in movies of this sort; it's really a unique little item -- if there's such a thing as punk soulfulness, then this movie has it.
Hal Hinson, Washington Post
