Review of Prey

Prey (1977)
1/10
Slow, boring, pointless and very messy

Warning: Spoilers
My overbearing impression of this film was that it was messy. There seemed to be no coherence in the storyline or character actions. This randomness took away any sense of grounding in the film and made it feel like lots of messy bits edited together.

Essentially, a lesbian couple are hanging about in a house, for what reason I don't know but they seem to be taking a break from it all though it's never really made clear. Anyway, alien disguised as human man turns up, kills a few people and animals and hangs out with the two women. They don't do a lot, just eat, drink, play a couple of silly games and argue a lot. Why the alien never kills them is unclear.

Anyway this goes on for ages and gets really boring. Nothing really happens. At end, he finally does kill the women then contact his home planet to advise humans are easy prey. When it finished it just felt like a completely pointless film to me.
