If you love seeing Bruce Campbell in low budget films, this movie is a definite must. This was filmed in Bulgaria just before Man With The Screaming Brain and many of the "actors" can be found in both films. Terrible costumes, poor acting and an oddball script make this movie pretty hard to forget. As low budget as it gets, this movie has some redeeming qualities. The special effects aren't half bad and there are a few good one-liners. Bruce Campbell and Renee O'Connor make a pretty cute onscreen couple especially if you are or were a fan of the television series Xena. But overall, don't expect anyone who doesn't know who Bruce Campbell is to enjoy this film. It's only good because he's in it and he takes his role seriously.
This film is really silly but also fun. Alien Apocalypse stars Bruce Campbell. (star of Evil Dead movies) Campbell stars as arrogant astronaut Ivan Hood, who along with three colleagues, including love interest Kelly (Renee O'Connor), return to Earth after a 40-year stint in space only to discover that it's been conquered by extremely large termite-like alien race who like to eat delicacies such as human heads and fingers! Although the surviving humans are being used as slave labor, Ivan convinces several jittery volunteers to participate in an uprising, despite the fact that they are vastly outnumbered and outgunned. Saying that the plot isnt one that would be taken seriously (bunch of huge termite aliens take over the world so they can use the humans to work in sawmills, sell wood and make money??) but Bruce Campbell's fabulous sarcasm and hilarious one-liners make the film. The final scenes in the film are the best with the doctor leading his raggy bunch of freedom fighters against the termites and heads are bitten with blood spurting and bug limbs are chopped off with lots of bright green slime. Totally ridiculous and totally cheesy but still a great tv movie.Read full review
If you like big termites with ray guns this is your movie. Bruce plays the hero and kills em all. I guess Bruce is getting old. Reminds me of old 60s movies. Stuffed termite suits, crazy. Almost made me laugh.

If you like Bruce Campbell, Sci-Fi movies or "B" movies, get this film. You won't be disappointed. The graphics are great & it's Bruce at his best. The supporting cast is excellent. This could have easily been a box office hit among sci-fi movies. It received the highest ratings in Sci-Fi channels history for any movie ever aired on it. And for a great reason. This film is spectacular.
