action

In 1939, four escaped lizard-like extraterrestrial violent criminals crash land on Earth from an intergalactic prison planet. Two couples watch the crash and examine the wreck. After the aliens have forcibly seized their bodies, there is a slaughter with a group of World War II veterans. After a short time they have to go into hiding because they find that the technology required to repair their defective spaceship is not yet available.

After fifty years, construction workers discover the aliens working on a building. They come out of their hiding place and go in search of plutonium in New York, which they need to repair their damaged space glider. They act extremely ruthlessly against the people and cause a bloodbath with many dead. Meanwhile, an alien bounty hunter has tracked them down and pursues them in order to bring them to justice. The comic artist Matt, for whom the events is a welcome inspiration for his comic series The Space Avenger, is drawn into this whole mess . When the bounty hunter takes over Matt's ex-girlfriend's body, the chaos is perfect.

criticism

The lexicon of international films says: "Idiotically prepared science fiction horror, just as brutal as it is rough in a few jokes".
