The Leprechaun
The weakest entry in the Leprechaun horror film series is Leprechaun 4: In Space. The fact that it is set in space is precisely what makes it so mind-numbingly fantastic. A fantastic illustration of how to take a completely ludicrous idea and make it into something really "unique" is in the movie Leprechaun 4. You'll laugh out loud at the movie's realistic effects, inventive killing techniques, and hilarious Leprechaun lines. Leprechaun 4: In Space is a must-see if you like the Leprechaun series or horror flicks in general.
Pinhead
The series' interesting continuation, Hellraiser: Bloodline, also acts as a prequel. The 1700s, the 1990s, and the 2200s are the three eras that the tale takes place in. Let's face it: I'm really just here for Pinhead and the other Cenobites, so I didn't have very high hopes for the fourth episode of the series. Doug Bradley retains that chilly, menacing, and demonic vibe, making it a delight to see him play. Who cares if this is tough to understand and makes no sense? Bloodline is worth seeing even if you've watched Hellraiser in its entirety because of the gruesome Pinhead moments. Definitely give this one a look if you like Hellraiser or any of Clive Barker's previous books. Even if there isn't a lot of logic to it, the trip is quite enjoyable.
Critters
I'll confess that the announcement that Critters 4 will take place in space piqued my interest and got me excited. I mean, how could they possible beat the work that they had done in the prior Critters movies? But then I looked at the cast list, and it didn't appear very good at all. Where is Brad Dourif? Angela Bassett? And what about the renowned Danish actor Anders Hove? I simply couldn't fathom how something like this could work out.
And my fears were confirmed when I finally saw Critters 4. The story was bad, the characters were bad, and it was just a rip-off of other franchises set in a terrible location. What really hurts from a fan perspective is that the very things that made the previous entries Jason Voorhees in space unique and entertaining are either completely stripped out or just not present at all. Critters 4 is a complete mess and a huge disappointment.
Dracula
One of the very few awful horror films that is so horrible it's almost unwatchable is Dracula 3000. I adore detesting Dracula 3000. Even though it's terrible the whole time, my primary complaint is that the finale was a complete cop-out and left me feeling absolutely disappointed. "Dracula in Space" wasn't as horrible as I had imagined it would be; rather, it was dreadful. The concept is interesting, but the performance is poor, and the conversation is intolerably annoying. If you want to have a bad day, I suggest viewing it.
Also, Coolio. Coolio is there. Did I say that?
Jason Voorhees
Jason X is the most notorious horror film sequel in which the antagonist travels to outer space. Jason Voorhees is the man, the tale, and the myth. How he entered space is irrelevant. Why he is in space is of little interest to anybody. The only thing that counts is that Jason is in space and prepared to cause chaos.
In my view, Jason X is worth seeing for easter eggs and nods to past Friday the 13th movies, as well as his metamorphosis into Uber Jason.
While this movie isn't everyone's bag, it's a great watch for horror movie fans that love campy, cheesy, slasher films.
