Tagline: Killer music.  Alien airwaves.

My rating: 6.5/10

Will I watch it again? No.

If this had come out in the mid-80s, I would have eaten this up.  It's not that bad.  With a fun concept and story mixed with some good acting (for what it is) including the scrummy original MTV VJ, Martha Quinn, some gore and creature effects with a score by Blue Oyster Cult, you've got yourself 88 minutes of goofy fun.  Too bad they didn't sleaze it up a bit.  That would have made it the horror/comedy/exploitation picture people are clamoring for.
