The premise

In the distant future, a federation marshal arrives at a research lab on a remote planet where a genetic experiment has gotten loose and begins feeding on the dwindling scientific group.

Horror Vault's take

On a desolate outpost planet, a federation marshal touches down at a research facility only to find that a classified genetics experiment has broken containment and is now hunting the scientists one by one. With nowhere to run and the body count rising, the survivors must confront a rapidly evolving threat born from their own hubris. This lean, mean Roger Corman-produced creature feature delivers relentless tension and plenty of gruesome practical effects in a compact runtime. Fans of low-budget 1980s sci-fi horror will find a lot to chew on here — sometimes quite literally.
