Captain Picard was in Lifeforce.

Post by TrailerParkJawa »

Anyone remember the movie Lifeforce? I just noticed Patrick Stewart is in it. If you've never seen the movie, its a B grade sci fi flick about vampires coming from space.

I thought it was great stuff as a young teen, especially the girl. Now, I watch it and think its pretty cheesy. Except for the girl, she is still has one of the best bodies Ive ever seen. I guess you never grow up. :wink:

It was a pretty bad movie. It's hard to believe that the girl is naked for most of the film (at least it seemed that way when I saw it back in the 80s). :)

Oh yeah i remember the movie well. I saw it recently on one of the late night channels and it sucked, but when i was 12 it was one of the best movies i'd ever seen. What was the name of actress who played the female vampire?

You only just noticed this? Pah. Last time it was on I was more concerned with Harry from Spooks being the protagnonist.

Ah, yes. Old Patric had his face melt, didn't he. Good stuff. The red head chick was pretty yummy as well. Good way to exorcise a vamp spirit, rip her night gown off. :twisted:

Patrick Stewart actually lost all his blood through his mouth, nose and eyes.
He made a significant enough impression on my 18yo self that when I saw him in Dune, I recognised him. Or was it vice-versa? :?
Seeing Steve Railsback almost make out with him is high comedy, too.
And, the score was done by Henry Mancini, of Pink Panther fame. Cheesy flick, but it had it's high points.

I was 13 or 14 depending on what year this came out, but I saw it on video first, so it was probably more like 1987 or something.

It is me, or did it seem like the the American Colonel made it from Texas to London in the space of a few hours?

Did Excalibur come out before either of those two movies? That's the first movie I remember seeing Patrick Stewart in. It also had Liam Neeson Sir Gawain) and Gabriel Byrne (as Uther, who demonstrated the fine art of boning the diretor's daughter while still wearing armor). :)

her tits are indeed nearly perfect. there aren't very many women that can come quite that close to perfection as far as breast shape goes.

Im sure her breasts are the primary reason she was hired. Movies like this are the reason why as a kid I thought most women looked like this naked.

It may have been the first actual movie movie for all three. I think the director said it was the first for Gabriel Byrne and pretty close to the first for Neeson. Neeson ended up hooking up with Helen Mirren for awhile because of the movie.

No, actually, he just puked like a metric ton of blood, which took the shape of a head and then splashed all over the helicopter (IIRC, haven't watched that shit in ages).
