...and from one viewer in the US...

"This is a Troma Team release, a pick-up, not an original, so therefore it's not typical Troma. Which sometimes is good, and in this case, yes, this is good. Weird, definitely. This begins something like a melding of Man Who Fell To Earth with Land of the Lost and perhaps a dash of Laserblast thrown in for good measure. A blond woman and her daughter are wandering through the English countryside and they're obviously "not from around there" because there's people hunting them. The hunters look like an army of Invisible Men, because their heads are wrapped in white bandages (?) and they're sporting shades. Anyway, this woman happens across this house in the country that's the sight of a fancy dress party, for New Years, I guess, and either some of the people in this house are vampires or it's just part of their costumes, that's never really explained and when these folks are under fire and defending themselves they don't take out their fake vampire teeth, unless they're actually MEANT to be vampires. Who the heck knows. Anyway this blond woman and her daughter take refuge at this house and the bad guys are systematically dealt with via gunfire and even scanner-type activity from the little girl. I'm not doing so well at describing this because it really is a fairly decent movie, with beautiful cinematography and a very different atmosphere to it. There are a lot of inexplicable things in this though, like what are those sounds one hears while the camera is roaming around the house? They almost sound like a needle being dragged across a record or perhaps maybe farting noises? Anyway, that's mostly inconsequential, this is one oddball and fascinating flick to watch and pretty damn good for some little independent film. 8 out of 10 and check it out, you may be surprised how good it is. Or not". (From IMDB, "Theatre X"). 

There is a new absolutely inspired review of "Alien Blood" written by someone called Ben Platt now up on the internet. Click on image left to be taken to it. See comment below.

Sorensen comments..."This brilliantly revealing hatchet review by Ben was apparently written on Friday 13 July 2007! This little movie was released a full 7 years ago...and they're all, globally, still buying, renting, or, in poor old Ben's case, in a darkened room, biting their nails to the quick, eyes out on stalks, chewing on their beanies, and repeatedly watching their DVD's of "Alien Blood" and obsessing about me and my personal career before writing page after furious page!  I am definitely following in Ken Russell's footsteps. Wonderful stuff!"

...and...last but not least...from IMDB!...

"Crappy wannabe cult movie". (Mr S Vidar of Norway).

Recently...

This movie has been re-released in the U.S. by Troma Entertainment as part of a DVD Triple-Bill...
