10/10
One odd...& brilliant movie from Tobe Hooper !

Wow! I can't really imagine this kind of movie. What is it?? A space vampire?? Whoever ever think about this kind of movie?? Based on the novel "space vampire",Lifeforce made out as a success movie in the 80's. I was tend to watch this movie when i found out at the IMDb which was given an average rating of 5.8. This is actually an unknown movie for there are only about 5000 people who votes on Lifeforce, so, i'm giving it a chance. The main reason i watched this movie is likely because my friend want to watch a sci-fi movie. Then i search all around in IMDb and found this one. Tobe Hooper have created good movies recently especially Texas chainsaw massacre, funhouse and some others..so i think i should try out Lifeforce.

At first, the movie is full of suspense, not because of its special effect (which i think quiet cool for the 80's), but the acting, the music and how the story lines goes. Actually, it makes feel very confusing.. but i kept on watching till i found out what the hell is it all about. At the end, i still not fully understand the whole matter of Lifeforce, but it is already enough for me and my friend to conclude that this is a good movie. The only thing that i hate about this movie is the sex scene,huhu...overall, the plot line is interesting, the acting is not incredibly brilliant, but still there are good performances from the actors, surely not an Oscar material, but still a good one.

I think that this movie deserves a second chance, find it and watch it. I'll rate this movie 10 out of 10..not because it was perfect, but just giving it a chance. Honestly, i don't think Lifeforce should be given rating of 5.8 out of 10. It should have been higher.
