Reception

edit

TV guide stated, ". The script is a stew of recycled sci-fi conceits that don't really add up to much and the generic characters (almost all of whom are named after comic-book writers and artists) are saddled with dialogue that would daunt far more skilled performers."[1] According to Mutant Viewers the film "belongs to a category of B-movies that invest in many time-wasting and pointless scenes because there's no budget for anything else."[2]

Moira called it "a modestly interesting little B film. The central idea of an alien-possessed motorcycle is rather silly but the film carries it off surprisingly well."[3] Retrospective critical assessment insisted on the poor filmic qualities of the production.[4][5] Collider considers the film is "so-bad-it's-good" and "ith awesome costume designs reminiscent of the ‘90s Power Rangers, it's hard to decide who to root for."[6]
