Absolutely brilliant and creepy.. A woman, a mirror and the world which attacks her. It ends with her gaze at the mirror, at her image, or are her images looking at us. In any case whatever you think the meaning might be the emotional impact and the genius editing are undeniable and where else do you get to see the heroine attacked by sprocket holes!

"An elegant meditation on time and a biting commentary on the temporal fragility of celluloid, Outer Space sums up our fears and nightmares in one apocalyptic vision of cinema." LOL, no thanks!

The prelude to so much of what the 21st century is and is becoming. See Prefuse 73 or HairyBo if my claim is doubted.

Reminiscent of E.T. spying through the kitchen window on Elliott's mom, except E.T.'s vision doesn't work the same as ours; he's got the multifaceted compound eye of an insect; and he's a violent menace to humanity. As E.T.'s rage peaks, his vision disintegrates into seizure-inducing strobe effects. The woman or women (?) in the film get swallowed into a white light, which might be a tractor beam, for further study.

Tscherkassky n'est pas un grand cinéaste expérimental. Tscherkassky est un grand cinéaste, point ! "Outer Space", son chef-d'oeuvre, construit avec la plus équilibrée des économies visuelles une fable morale qui, par les moyens seuls du cinéma -art encore matérialiste, en 1999-, interroge la légitimité accidentée et les modalités d'apparence de la violence hollywoodienne dans le champ du sensible.

Peter Tscherkassky reconstructs Sidney J. Furie's The Entity through an unfathomable level of optical effects and film processing to a point where each frame is in danger of destroying the next, crafting a reflexive and frightening take on horror film that will linger in your mind longer than you like.

Tscherkassky takes footage from the 82 Barbara Hershey horror film 'The Entity' and strips it to its core. Reverting it to black and white images and applying his cutting and collaging methods with both image and sound he creates something new, primal and horrorfying in its own way. A cool little watch that made me wish I had a copy of 'The Entity' to rewatch. Well done.

Nothing is clear, no point, no plot, a study in film techniques that hurt the eyes.

Grande tecnica che nel 1999 riesce a suggestionare l'atmosfera del luogo in cui si guarda. Linguaggio interessante.

El excelso lenguaje sensorial sobre la narración trasponen el drama a la expreción estética en un lenguaje cinematográfico asombrozamente artístico

liked the editing and heightened tension plus the off the wall sound design.

Very bad. It's not a "premonition of a horror..." it is just horrible implementation of a very blunt idea. IMHO, of coarse.

Good black and white photography if taken as stills, but the pace of the sequence went so violent that it felt more like mechanic techniques than genuine expressions.

Extraordinary technique and "under drugs" Lynch-style, that's all.

    Have to agree with João; definitely not lynch style. It really reminded me of the book "house of leaves"

    Under-drugs-Lynch-style is not simple Lynch-style.
