Leni Riefenstahl both directed and starred in this film, playing a free-spirited gamine who dares to climb a precipitous mountain peak. Because she is the only member of her community to accomplish this, she is regarded as something of a witch. When she discovers a hidden crystal cave, the villagers change their tune and follow her up the mountain, stripping the cave of its riches....

0 votes and 0 Reviews In Theaters: September 26, 1980 (limited) R | Fantasy, Horror, Sci-Fi This goofy sci-fi/horror nonsense plays like ’50s-style alien-invasion schlock with a dollop of ’80s-style blood and gore. The invasion – such as it is – is perpetrated on various backwoods hunters and campers by a scarcely-seen alien that looks like a menacing Star Trek guest star in a glam-rock outfit. The alien’s rather simple frontal attack employs an arsenal of toothy, pulsating frisbees that glow in the dark and glom onto the necks and backs of various flannel-clad denizens of the woods....

2 votes and 0 Reviews R | Fantasy, Drama, Horror This uproariously bad sci-fi horror oddity plays like a modern version of a cheesy ’50s alien invasion flick, only not as clever. The filmmakers deserve some credit for throwing everything but the kitchen sink into the plot (and perhaps even the sink’s in there somewhere), which involves the diabolical plans of three silver-suited aliens, played by – ready for this? – John Carradine, Julie Newmar (TV’s Catwoman), and Tina Louise (Ginger from Gilligan’s Island), who hire a couple of drunken wrench jockeys (Neville Brand and Aldo Ray) to help them abduct a bunch of lame-brained teenage campers for use in the production of a youth-restoring serum....
