A 92 minute-long
1991 Japanese monster movie directed by
Keita Amamiya. It's about a female
bounty hunter named Iria, played by
Yuuko Moriyama, who comes to
Earth with her computer,
Bob, to capture the escaped
bioweapon monster, Zeram, who eats human
flesh to create his
repulsive minions. It ends up that two Earth
dolts get involved and end up having to help Iria
defeat the evil
space brute.
The movie's not that bad. It's big on
rubber suit
special effects and low on
actors like most Japanese
monster movies i've seen, but Iria's pretty cool. She kicks ass and has an bad-ass
attitude.
Zeram
spawned a sequel, Zeram 2, and a pretty good
anime series called
Iria: Zeiram the Animation. Iria's a lot like the
live action, but has better "
acting" and humour.
Zeram can also be found under the titles Zeiram and Zeiramu.
