During the reign of the Vikings, a man from another world crash-lands on Earth, bringing with him an alien predator. The man must fuse his advanced technology with the weaponry of the vikings to fight the monster.
Daft, obvious but hugely enjoyable, 'Outlander' is superior trash.

An unexpectedly enjoyable science-fiction adventure that should be generating louder fanboy buzz than it has so far.

Outlander is a cheesy, low-budget, space alien Viking monster movie. And seemingly proud of it.

In its second half, Outlander falls apart completely, becoming nothing but a violent, mindless monster movie along the lines of Alien vs. Predator.

In Outlander, the nuttiest hunk of junk in many months, Viking warriors and a stoic intergalactic traveler join forces to combat an enormous beetle with whiplash stingers.
