Trailer Synopsis Cast

Beautiful alien Amazonian women plan to conquer the world using an army of vegetable monsters. Dim-witted privates Philbrick and Penn bumble into a cave in search of atomic activity but collide instead with fierce carrot-topped tree mutants and their leaders, the 7-foot space sirens Prof. Tanga and Dr. Puna. This lavishly low-budget sci-fi romp has the bodacious aliens planning to overrun Earth with their vege-men army, but first they want the G.I.s to explain the meaning of love.

Frank Ray Perilli as  Pvt. Penn

Roughly chronological, from 3/96 to 11/96, with a coda in spring of 1997: inside compounds of Aum Shinrikyo, a Buddhist sect led by Shoko Asahara. (Members confessed to a murderous sarin attack in the Tokyo subway in 1995.) We see what they eat, where they sleep, and how they respond to media scrutiny, on-going trials, the shrinking of their fortunes, and the criticism of society. Central focus is placed on Hiroshi Araki, a young man who finds himself elevated to chief spokesman for Aum after its leaders are arrested. Araki faces extreme hostility from the Japanese public, who find it hard to believe that most followers of the cult had no idea of the attacks and even harder to understand why these followers remain devoted to the religion, if not the violence.

The film creates a perfect balance between action and depth of basic needs, in the midst of an infertile atmosphere.

Not sure how, but this is easily one of the best movies all summer. Multiple levels of funny, never takes itself seriously, super colorful, and creative.

This is a coming of age storyline that you've seen in one form or another for decades. It takes a truly unique voice to make yet another one worth watching.

Soldiers on a base near mountains go out to search for aliens. Two privates are the stars Philbrick/Bob Ball who is smaller but jerky and Penn/Frankie Ray. There is a lot of overacting but funny scenes.Philbrick has a water hose that goes out of control in the beginning of the movie. He squirts everything, himself and the other soldiers around him.They later talked their Colonel into letting them go look for aliens in a cave. The Colonel lets them go because him and Philbrick belong to the same club and are wearing the club rings. They find aliens, ones that look like tall vegetables but very strong who capture them.They later meet the two alien women in charge a professor and a doctor. The woman are tall and pretty. The men from their planet start off as plants grown by the women. Philbrick and Penn are attracted to them but the women are all business.Later Philbrick and Penn escape with the veggie men chasing them. They try to get help from some Indians on horses so they can stop the aliens invasion of earth.The Indians don't understand English. One of them does a little and does a dance which is so great and funny lots of turns, very talented. He also has a club ring like Philbrick. They all end up getting high by smoking a peace pipe and drinking something. The Indian dancer says "I don't smoke" but whatever it was they drank and smoked they all ended up laying on the ground later. This movie had some really funny part is in but very stupid language. Example: Their Sgt use words like "man, dig, hey man what's going on here, like man what's going on here, hey listen both you cats". The movie tries to use words that are supposed to be cool but are not. Other word like "chicks, babes. dolls, you send me, your cool, daddio, crazy man, getting hitched, like slaves" just did not seem right.The movie was funny but very immature and Philbrick talked a lot of baby talk and was hanging on Penn too much. It is a black and white movie made in 1962.The best part of the movie is the head Indian with a cowboy hat and long dark hair that did the dance. There was no name given to him so I could not find out who took the part. If anyone knows please let me know on the message board.

I stopped short of giving "Invasion of the Star Creatures" 10/10 due to some cringe-inducing scenes involving Indians. Other than that, it's pure corny sci-fi fun. In this case, a pair of loopy soldiers find a cave housing two sexy women sent from another planet to colonize earth. Naturally, the soldiers try to stop the colonization.Personally, if those two babes were going to take over the world, I would immediately submit! And moreover, this movie was clearly intended more as a comedy, with the sorts of lines that one expects in a Laurel and Hardy movie. As long as we understand the stereotyping of Native Americans here, we can enjoy the rest of the movie.Tanga and Puna! Hubba hubba...

Let me start by saying that I understand that Invasion of the Star Creatures was meant to be a parody of the sci-fi films of the 50s. I understand that none of it is to be taken seriously. The problem I have is that none of it works. A parody should be funny and this one just isn't. Not once during the entire runtime did I so much as crack a smile. In general, I am easily entertained, but I couldn't find a sliver of entertainment anywhere in Invasion of the Star Creatures.I knew I was in trouble right from the beginning. The two "stars" make their screen appearance with one of the lamest gags imaginable - a water hose they can't control that gets them both wet. These two come off as Bowery Boys wannabes. Why anyone would want to mime the act and persona of the Bowery Boys is beyond me. After the less than illustrious beginning, the movies goes on to feature comical chase sequences, dancing Indians, vegetable men, decoder rings, and other assorted unfunny bits. It's all just a complete waste of time.I bought this on the double feature DVD with Invasion of the Bee Girls. That movie is Academy Award winning stuff in comparison with Invasion of the Star Creatures.

This movie is on the top of my list for must get a copy of!! My TV tape is long since been worn out. I would love to find a good copy on DVD.Many people mentioned the stereotypes and how offensive it is...geez...its kinda the point with this movie. I mean when the alien chick pulls the "kiss? What's kiss?" line, you gotta know they were going for parody city here!My favorite thing is the long pauses between dialog with Philbert and the poor mic treatment. It sounds like they had only one boom for a huge room so everyones voices are picked up at different levels...pretty funny.I give this one two snaps in Z formation. It is that good!
