Inseminoid (1981): The Alien Franchise Without Subtext, Budget Or Talent. But With Special Guests!

Ben & Rob Netflix & chill with the hosts of the Ctrl Alt Critique podcast for ‘Inseminoid’, Britain’s 1981 answer to the age old question: “Can you make Ridley Scott’s sci-fi classic ‘Alien’ but with a fraction of the budget, talent and schedule?” Well obviously not, but we’ve got Adam, Amber and Bailey from Ctrl Alt Critique in to help us dissect all things ‘Inseminoid’, from its bizarre plot to its awfully dated effects, tone and subject matter. Banned in the UK with copies legally required to be destroyed by police, ‘Inseminoid’ stars Judy Geeson, Robin Clark, Victoria Tennant and Stephanie Beacham as a crew of space explorers attacked most intimately by a mysterious extraterrestrial force.But how on earth did this bizarre ‘Alien’ ripoff become so strangely successful at the UK box office? Is it even a ripoff of ‘Alien’, or do its roots run to deeper sci-fi influences? Can a podcast with five people hosting work in any meaningful way? And how does Ben keep managing to force his friends and co-host into watching these bizarre films from a past we’d rather forget?!CONSUUUME to find out all this and much MUCH more!Find us on your socials of choice or WATCH this episode at www.linktr.ee/everymovieeverpodcast and our lovely guests can be found at linktr.ee/ctrlaltcritique
