Star Crystal!

From 1986, Star Crystal is an odd duck. It begins as a horror movie — an Alien clone, in many ways — but then, almost on a dime, it turns into something more closely resembling a family-safe sci-fi movie.

It’s not too much of a spoiler to mention that the movie features an alien, and my God do I love the design of that guy. He kinda looks like an inside-out E.T., covered in Jell-O.

Star Crystal had some fun moments, but make no mistake, it was still a horror movie! (Well, more sci-fi than horror, but people bleed!)

Enjoy. It’s pretty perfect for a lazy Saturday night.
