Redwarmin This movie is the proof that the world is becoming a sick and dumb place

GarnettTeenage The film was still a fun one that will make you laugh and have you leaving the theater feeling like you just stole something valuable and got away with it.

Twilightfa Watch something else. There are very few redeeming qualities to this film.

Murphy Howard I enjoyed watching this film and would recommend other to give it a try , (as I am) but this movie, although enjoyable to watch due to the better than average acting fails to add anything new to its storyline that is all too familiar to these types of movies.

Leofwine_draca Despite being an adequate low-budget ALIEN rip-off which at least offers a nifty pacing and plenty of grue for your buck, TITAN FIND doesn't have much to recommend it at first glance. Firstly is the no-name American cast of never-were actors and actresses and the bad sign that a front cover-billed Klaus Kinski only appears for fifteen minutes or so. Secondly, the low budget, resulting in often enthusiastic but cheesy special effects. Thirdly, the openly derivative nature of the script and story, which throws two spaceships into the plot (one German, one American) instead of one, but which still goes through the same old motions and even employs some movie references before its time (THE THING FROM ANOTHER WORLD gets name-checked AND ripped-off, which must be some kind of achievement).Somehow, TITAN FIND still proves to be a fairly enjoyable venture, if nothing particularly special or memorable. As mentioned previously, the pacing is fast and the story light, and with a wealth of low-budget action to keep things sliding along nicely. The film does attempt to build some atmosphere, with lots of suspenseful stalking through dark corridors and dry-iced landscapes, which works on occasion. And although the special effects are cheap, they are at least plentiful and sometimes extraordinarily gooey, incorporating all manner of mangled cadavers, splattering blood, and a surprisingly graphic head explosion into the action. Also included are a slimy man-in-a-suit who plays the chief creature (again totally ripped off ALIEN in appearance) and some slimy space slugs which attack themselves to the brains of the dead and can use them as zombies.The cast does well with the script (at least those who have developed characters and who are not just easy cannon fodder) and some of the performances are surprisingly charismatic. Klaus Kinski is always good for entertainment value and this later role provides him with a mad German scientist, who gets to babble on about aliens whilst grinning inanely and molesting female crew members - a case of art reflecting life, perhaps, for the notoriously perverted actor? It's just a shame the he doesn't get more screen time. The film stops and starts with a series of mini-climaxes before the credits finally roll, climaxes which include an ultra-cheesy and hilarious "electrocution" special effect for the alien, and an amusing race-against-the-bomb-timer finale. Although the film is often too dark for its own good, thankfully this doesn't prove much of a hindrance. Fun and cheesy if you're in a forgiving mood.

JoeB131 Although to be be fair, Ridley stole his idea from other people.But anyway. so the plot is that an ancient find is discovered on Titan, and even though two ships have been wiped out looking for it, they decide to send a third one with reckless disregard for things like "safety".This is where they pretty much rip off other people's better ideas, mostly Aliens and John Carpenter's The Thing. And even though the characters are pretty much warned that this alien can take over other people's bodies by a highly under-utilized Klaus Kinski working for booze money, the proceed to fall into a couple of alien traps.The acting and special effects don't make this worth watching at all. I'm sorry I did.

Bezenby Is that his real voice he's using on this one? Man, it makes him even creepier than usual, not only that, he's doing a Stuart Hall and feeling up the female crew of an...wait...getting too far ahead. Y'see what has happened is this - there's two rival companies, one German, one American, messing around on Titan doing mining and stuff, only something's gone wrong and the American's have to send a rescue mission out there, only to find an alien zoo where one of the creatures has escaped and seemingly wasted a German crew...except for Klaus, who makes himself known by grabbing the boob of one of the Americans. This creature can control your mind if it gets close enough to plant some sort of leech on your head (kind of like the brain slugs from Futurama!), and it promptly begins taking over the crew and killing them off in various ways. It's like Alien, basically, with some zombie types thrown in, but it's rather good!There's a few gory scenes to keep you going, from faces being ripped off, heads being bitten off, and a head explosion, and it must be said that the majority are right in saying that the film does slow down a bit towards the end, it's still worth it if you're into these early eighties films.

ZeppelinB9 (SPOILER ALERT: As per the guidelines and term agreement, this review may contain spoilers. Continue reading at own risk.) Okay, it does "borrow" heavily from Alien (stalled ship on an unknown planetary body, an abandoned spaceship discovered therein, and something that kills the living crew of the stalled ship, etc.) But, the plot seems like the things that Dan O'Bannon was influenced by (anyone with the Director's cut of Alien on DVD can read that he drew from a story about a life form that stole people's minds. On another note, this plot seems to be drawn from an episode of Buck Rodgers that dealt with a space vampire. I will admit it...I am a child of 70's and 80's sci-fi.) But, I can say that it is the mirror form of Alien; the venerable Lyman Ward makes no doubt about his siding with the corporate interests (alluded to in Alien, and acts like a suit when script called for it) or that Diane Salinger seems like Ash(creepy...in my opinion) Unlike Alien, as others have noted, this film capitalizes on gore (but, for good effect.) It is cheesy, but I still love it. I put it up there with Roger Corman's Galaxy of Terror as the memorable rip offs of Ridley Scott. Nothing avant guard, but what movies were originally: an escape for an hour or two before getting back to reality.
