We should take a break and take a shower together. whose corpse becomes absorbed by Subject 20, which divides it into gooey, bloody chunks. Their sexy time is interrupted by the gory death of lab tech Jimmy Swift (Michael Bowen, better known as Pussy Wagon owner Buck in Kill Bill). Moments later, he’s steaming up the scream with lab assistant Tracy (Dawn Dunlap of Laura and Barbarian Queen) while crew member Brian Beale plays a weird glass saxophone (and he’s played by Ray Oliver, who has an awesome quick turn as Dr.

A week of only watching Alien ripoffs? Sure.
