| Plot: | Jack Caine (Dolph Lundgren) is a Houston vice cop who's forgotten the rule book. His self-appointed mission is to stop the drugs trade and the number one supplier Victor Manning. Whilst involved in an undercover operation to entrap Victor Manning, his partner gets killed, and a sinister newcomer enters the scene... Along with F.B.I. agent Lawrence Smith, the two investigate a spate of mysterious deaths; normal non-junkies dying of massive heroin overdoses and bearing the same horrific puncture marks on the forehead. This, coupled with Caine's own evidence, indicates an alien force is present on the streets of Houston, killing and gathering stocks of a rare drug found only in the brain... Caine is used to fighting the toughest of criminals, but up to now they've all been human... |

Jack Caine: Either you're Santa Claus or you're dead, pal. [after blowing away the police chief, who was trying to kill his partner] Jack Caine: [to Laurence Smith] Never trust nobody; Caine Manual, Chapter 1, Page 1. Bad Alien: I come in peace. Jack Caine: But you go in pieces, asshole. [repeated line] Bad Alien: I come in peace. Arwood "Larry" Smith: [trying on a jacket from Jack's closet] Hey, it fits perfectly! Jack Caine: It should... it was mine when I was 12. Jack Caine: Fuck you, spaceman! Malone: You've been gone eight days, Jack. A week I could understand, but EIGHT FUCKING DAYS! Jack Caine: [while being chased by the White Boys, Larry produces a huge firearm, which resembles a cannon more than a gun] What the hell is that? Arwood "Larry" Smith: A Christmas present from my mother. Jack Caine: [at the murder scene, Larry and Jack are nearly decapitated by the alien disc] Now, that's a murder weapon. Market Customer: No shit, Man, he had to be at least seven feet tall. I saw him about two blocks down the street. Market Clerk: Yeah, sure you did. Last week he saw Jimi Hendrix at the laundrymat, remember that? Security Guard: Right, with a dryer full of tie-dyed shirts. Arwood "Larry" Smith: [studying the disc weapon] The human body carries a small electrical charge, right? You tune the disc to the charge and then... [makes a slashing motion across his throat] Bruce the Scientist: Flathead's basically right. S'like turning your radio dial to K-I-L-L. |
