VOYAGE OF THE ROCK ALIENS

Cinemavixion Review

James Fargo's "Voyage of the Rock Aliens" offers a unique, if somewhat campy, blend of science fiction and musical comedy. Set in the fictional town of Speelburgh, the film charts the arrival of extraterrestrial visitors intent on discovering the origins of rock and roll. Their quest quickly intertwines with a local teenage scene, particularly involving the characters Dee Dee and Frankie, and their band, The Pack. While the plot may tread familiar ground, the film's charm lies in its earnest execution and vibrant musical numbers. Craig Sheffer anchors the human element, while the alien characters provide ample opportunity for comedic and musical exploration. Though perhaps not a critical darling, "Voyage of the Rock Aliens" provides a fun, nostalgic trip for fans of 80s B-movies and musical adventures, celebrating the enduring power of rock music across the galaxies.
