Prey (1977)

Prey: Directed by Norman J. Warren. With Barry Stokes, Sally Faulkner, Glory Annen, Sandy Chinney. A deadly shape-shifting alien infiltrates a country house occupied by two lesbians, and proceeds to study their behaviour, for a sinister purpose.

“Alien lands on earth and takes on human form only to end-up being a pawn in the lives of a bickering lesbian couple.u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eThe premise of Alien Prey alone will give one a glimpse into the off-beat weirdness that is this strange low budget sci-fi/horror show. Among the crazy offerings youu0026#39;ve got animal-men attacking people, an alien in drag, some howlingly bad dialog, a party for a dead fox – its difficult not to find this a tongue-in-cheek effort. Also this bizarre flick has enough sleaze for any exploitation fan thanks to some drawn-out sex scenes. This is all capped off with a surprisingly violent (and bloody) finale and one pleasingly nihilistic ending.u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eThe direction isnu0026#39;t bad and the filming locales are nice. The castu0026#39;s performances are just erratic enough to add even more weirdness to the film. Sally Faulkner throws out a perfectly u0026#39;bitchyu0026#39; vibe only matched by Barry Stokesu0026#39; deliciously odd u0026#39;stowicu0026#39; performance as the alien – who you just might be rooting for in the end.u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eAlien Prey is simply a hoot for cult fans. Thereu0026#39;s definitely no other film like it and whether you laugh or groan youu0026#39;re bound to be entertained regardless! u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003e*** out of ****”
