In this unauthorized Italian sequel to “Alien” a group of spelunking bowlers (Or are they bowling spelunkers?) discover that their favorite cave and favorite bowling alley are infested with alien monsters that hatch from rocks.
Review Snippet:
Now we are subjected to another ten minutes of watching the group perform a spelunking rescue in every detail. Once Jill’s inert body is hauled back up, the only person at the top is Rod. He starts the process of rigging the ropes so the others can ascend. Unbeknownst to Rod, the camera is slowly panning back through the cave and up Jill’s body to her face. This takes an additional four minutes. So, for the last twenty-four minutes the only thing keeping my attention has been complaining about the complete lack of anything to keep my attention.
Lesson Learned:
Spelunking is an important branch of physics.

Something I’ve always wondered about this movie: who in their right mind would bring a full-sized typewriter on a spelunking expedition?
Bowling ball, maybe… but a typewriter?

Well, it sounds like it would have been a better Alien sequel than either of the last two…

That word…”Spelunking.”
It just sounds so dirty. Filthy, really. It sounds like some kind of dank and unpleasant sexual fetish that orginiated in San Francisco in 1973 and just ended in sadness and chlymidia for all involved.
I know the movie didn’t invent the term, but blech, that word.

Oh, Calvin and Hobbes, is there nothing you can’t make better?
