Tries to be horror AND a comedy. Fails at both.
Some nonsense about Skylab, alien microbes and Spain. Oh, and there is a kinda cool dune buggy.

How It Feels
Read from this film's synopsis, keywords and credits, and used to work out what it sits beside.
A taut alien-horror thriller that traps its protagonists against an otherworldly threat with nowhere to escape. It's a high-stakes battle for survival where trust becomes as dangerous as the parasitic menace.
