Trivia, insights & behind the scenes
Roddy Piper filmed this between They Live callbacks and wrestling retirement, reportedly taking the role because he wanted to 'do something with aliens that wasn't just punching them.'
This arrived in the direct-to-video dead zone between Event Horizon and Sphere, when studios kept trying to make 'haunted house in space' happen on budgets that couldn't afford ghosts OR gravity.
