Synopsis

Beautiful alien Amazonian women plan to conquer the world using an army of vegetable monsters. Dim-witted privates Philbrick and Penn bumble into a cave in search of atomic activity but collide instead with fierce carrot-topped tree mutants and their leaders, the 7-foot space sirens Prof. Tanga and Dr. Puna. This lavishly low-budget sci-fi romp has the bodacious aliens planning to overrun Earth with their vege-men army, but first they want the G.I.s to explain the meaning of love.

Solidrariol Am I Missing Something?
Salubfoto It's an amazing and heartbreaking story.
Ariella Broughton It is neither dumb nor smart enough to be fun, and spends way too much time with its boring human characters.
Benas Mcloughlin Worth seeing just to witness how winsome it is.
darbski For those of you reading this review, please remember that what you choose to watch doesn't define you. That said; you're insane if you think this movie is any worse than 99% of the programming about "Aliens", ancient or otherwise. Think not? Watch five episodes of "Big Bang Theory". It's FUN and that's it.There is one part I was not happy with, and that was when the Indians broke into a "Dance" of some kind. It was just not choreographed completely. Anything like Native dancing? HELL NO !! I just think the movie needed more of it, and maybe Michael Jackson, Britney Spears, et al. could have used some of the moves in their so-called dancing. They had a real chance to have some fun, but only one guy seemed to have any dancing ability; too bad.As far as the sexpot alien foxes that the heroes scored in the end, don't we all deserve a little hope? Direction? forget about it. Acting talent? Minimal. Plot? no more ridiculous than the technical advisers on "Ancient Aliens". Male characters? too stupid to contemplate. Women characters? Just really great looking, and since they're aliens, can we really understand them? Sure, with a big budget, and well, what else do you need, they could've had a "better" movie, but, WHY? This is drive-in movie fare, and is perfect for it. It's great.
Michael_Elliott Invasion of the Star Creatures (1962) BOMB (out of 4) This sci-fi film is without question one of the worst ever made. Two soldiers, acting like Abbott and Costello, land in a cave where beautiful women try to take them hostage. This film clearly tries to rip off various sci-fi films from this era but it also goes a step further and tries to rip off various Abbott and Costello films. It's rather shocking no one tried to sue this film for those reasons but personally I'd put a lawsuit in just because of how bad this movie is. I love bad movies but this one here is beyond bad and never enters the "campy fun" nature of something by Ed Wood. The performances are horrid, the women boring and the jokes are worse than something a three year old could come up with. I'd still recommend people watch the film just to see how bad the monster is.
sergio choren This is the worst brain damaged, ultra cheap, super stupid, silly, pointless piece of trash I've ever seen, an unbelievable garbage of instant cult status among fans of the bizarre. If you think that Ed Wood's "Plan 9" is bad, well... let me tell you, looks like "Citizen Kane" compared to that one. ¿Special effects?...again, "Plan 9" is "Star Wars". ¿Acting?...Thor Johnson is Al Pacino... so it's beyond bad, really. But if you are looking for that kind of incredible movies, it's for you! I'm a fan of American International for so many glorious horror movies, the Price-Corman-Poe saga and some great blaxploitation stuff, but with "Star Creatures" they descend right down to the Z level. Of course, my 1 out of 10 works in reverse if you like to watch bad movies for fun (the guy playing an Indian chief is great) so have fun and enjoy... if you can.
Lee Eisenberg I stopped short of giving "Invasion of the Star Creatures" 10/10 due to some cringe-inducing scenes involving Indians. Other than that, it's pure corny sci-fi fun. In this case, a pair of loopy soldiers find a cave housing two sexy women sent from another planet to colonize earth. Naturally, the soldiers try to stop the colonization.Personally, if those two babes were going to take over the world, I would immediately submit! And moreover, this movie was clearly intended more as a comedy, with the sorts of lines that one expects in a Laurel and Hardy movie. As long as we understand the stereotyping of Native Americans here, we can enjoy the rest of the movie.Tanga and Puna! Hubba hubba...
