It's reminiscent of Alien and the Shining, and it had the misfortune of being released concurrently with E.T. Despite a derivative premise, Carpenter unfolds a compact story and builds a credible amount of suspicion between the trapped researchers who battle the adaptable alien life form. Rating: B+
