They were on that ship when it blew up, now I don't know where they are, but that song at the end is the best thing about this whole thing. Also, that image in the credits has no relation to ANYTHING that happens in this OVA.

  • I still have my Betamax spanish dubbed tape of this... until this day, never understood the ending...

  • @Padauy Haha, I love obscure items of obscure shit, I never thought this was ever dubbed into any language other than Japanese, and released on Betamax of all things. Nice possession. 

  • Looks like it had a lot of potential.

  • Based on the cover art yes, based on the actual content? Fuck no.

  • To be honest, when they wake up in the alien hell, I do think it's genuinely creepy.

  • I will kinda agree, it is a bit effective.

  • Very soothing end tune.

  • The thing about 80s anime was there were plenty of titles, especially OAVs that were never officially distributed in the US, that were bad from generically mediocre to epic stinkers. This is a whole other special level of awful and, AND it was officially released in the US. It was like CPM grabbed it as an afterthought.

  • I remember watching this when I was seven years old, my mom rent it in an old video club here in mexico. The title was translated as "Criatura del Espacio" (Space Creature). I used to watch it over and over again because at the time I have always seen "happy" endings and this ending is JUST CRAZY!!! By the way it was the first time when i saw too much blood in a cartoon.

  • the ending theme - "space Labyrinth"- was sung by Kumiko Kaori;i'd love to have the karaoke version...

  • i think that the movie called "Event horizon" Its based in this OVA, dont u??

  • @RockoMyler Keiko Han (Athena from Saint Seiya) also made a good voicework on Moira... (Aries Mu seiyuu also was on this)

  • @VendavalEste Thanks... BTW the anime in this region (Latin America) was called "Alien X"

  • reminds me of the ending to The Beyond
