'Contamination' (1980) – Luigi Cozzi.

Over the years the relatively underappreciated oeuvre of 'colourful' Italian film-maker Luigi Cozzi's has deservedly grown in popularity, this is, perhaps, due in no small part to his exhilaratingly enthusiastic 1980s homage to pulpy Sci-fi/Horror 'Contamination', which enjoys a deliciously celebratory vibe no less infectious than the tyrannically toxic, rib-cage rupturing alien goo erupting from the multitudinously malevolent eggs, this especially vile contagion hidden within the cumbrous bowels of a doomily deserted ghost ship, being covertly borne into the ill-prepared city, and not long after their arrival, dipso commander Hubbard (Ian McCulloch), and his feisty, red-headed superior colonel Stella Holmes (Louise Marleau) determinedly follow the increasingly grisly trail of ruinously ruptured corpses to some formidably hot, far flung, hellaciously humid locale in order to locate the eerie epicentre of these extra terrestrial terror tactics, only to discover themselves sinisterly submerged under the malefic extra sensory thrall of some diabolically dreadful, slime-slathered cyclopean entity! and B-Movie maestro Cozzi certainly doesn't stint on the galactically gloopy gore in a dramatically demented, mind-over-bloody-matter, cosmically-inclined climax with an especially lurid-looking, mesmerically malign Lovecraftian monstrosity! With its brisk pacing, grievously groovy Goblin soundtrack, and bodaciously blood-spattered, knock-about action, 'Contamination' is a celestially creepy close encounter of a cosmic unkind!'
