Factual error: After Dr. Derry's hand is crushed by Calvin, it dangles and flops every time it is seen so that the audience can see that the bones are severely broken. However, in zero-g, the hand would float rather than swing limply.

Life takes the idea of Space being dangerous right into the International Space Station where 6 astronauts' joy at discovering a Martian life-form turns to terror as the slimy beast quickly hunts, grows and kills them one by one. Being set in zero gravity and having the creature evolving to better consume the crew give the film novelty, but the premise is still very familiar to anyone who's ever seen any "alien running amok killing people" movies. If you're looking for a grim and fast-paced science fiction horror feature film to curl up with awhile, you may enjoy having this one's tentacles ensnare you.
Miranda North: I know what I feel is not rational, not scientific. I feel hate. I feel pure fucking hate for that thing.
