The earth is threatened by mutants whose only goal is to reproduce. One of them is Katie, who puts her human mother in a wheelchair in a mysterious accident and maintains a good relationship with her murdering pet bird. She really wants a little brother, who would also be born as a mutant due to the nature of mother’s uterus. Will her wish come true? John Husten as a babysitter of transgalactic wisdom, Franco Nero as Jesus out of space and US-Enfant Terrible Sam Peckinpah: The cast is as unique as the story, which can hardly be summarized in a few sentences. In terms of film history and style, it is somewhere between Alejandro Jodorowsky’s early work and the films of Richard Stanley.
