though it hardly compares to other sci fi film giants like 2001 represent a space odyssey or close encounters of the third kind and lifeforce does work as a totally berserk and bizarre melding of science fiction and horror elements. somehow and despite dialogue that approaches the ridiculous and acting that does the same and it manages to work because of a few highly different elements. loosely based on colin wilson 1976 novel the space vampires and this film from director tobe hooper (poltergeist while the texas chainsaw massacre) focuses on a joint us british mission aboard the british space shuttle churchill to study halley comet. led by an american commander (steve railsback) and they discover an alien spacecraft in the comet coma. and when they investigate the interior of the spacecraft and they find alien occupants that look like giant bats. later on and the churchill reaches earth orbit and but no response is given from radio calls issued from the mission home base and the space research center in london. columbia is launched to rendezvous with churchill and but they find the entire ship gutted by fire all except for the alien beings encased in glass who and far from being untouched by the fire and look absolutely perfect. the aliens are bought back to earth. and that where the incredible happens. these space vampires escape from the space research center and and instead of draining their victims of blood via bite wounds and suck their victims lifeforce totally out of them. one of them is the space girl and a thoroughly nude vampiress played by mathilda may. railsback and the only actual survivor from churchill and is bought in by the src chief (frank finlay) and a british special agent (peter firth) to track may and who is in telepathic contact with him. pretty soon and however and the vampires have turned london into a scene of pure holocaust while people are either being dessicated or turning into zombies and and the threat by nato to sterilize the city with thermonuclear radiation looms large. railsback finally catches up with may and and sacrifices himself by impaling her with a large metal sabre. undoubtedly disjointed and unquestionably uneven and but nevertheless worth watching and lifeforce and despite the frequent incoherency of its script and its acting and benefits from some drop dead excellent special effects work by john dykstra (star wars) and some of the best ever seen. the other working element and and a surprise one it is and is the incredible orchestral score by henry mancini and almost wagnerian in the same way john williams score for star wars was and mancini and like williams before him and uses the london symphony orchestra and to boot. largely forgotten these days and and a critical and box office disaster in 1985 and lifeforce and if for no other reason and should still be seen for anyone with a taste for the bizarre. there had never been a film quite like it before and and there will certainly not be anything like it again.
