As much as I think Bruce Campbell is cool, then it was just difficult to fully get into this movie and be entertained by it. It was cheesy to the point of being painful to bear witness to.
The story is about astronauts Col. Jason Grant (played by Walter Koenig) and Ray Tanner (played by Bruce Campbell) who explore an abandoned space vessel and bringing back a several thousand year old corpse from space and a strange pod. The pod, however, contains a homicidal entity though and humans are such easy prey...
Storywise, then the movie was campy, cheesy and too much off a rip-off of other more famous Sci-Fi movies, such as "Alien" to mention just one.
For a movie of this particular caliber, then you know what you will get in terms of the acting talents and the script, and "Moontrap" does deliver what is expected of it.
"Moontrap" is boring, rather uneventful and not particularly enjoyable. And not even Bruce Campbell managed to save this train-wreck - or should I say space-wreck - of a movie.
