A meteor lands behind a Scottish pub and everyone talks about it but that oddly doesn't have much to do with the plot in this talky devil-girl film. Then suddenly a rather impressive flying saucer lands and a chick wearing a hat she might have borrowed from Grace Jones and a shiny black cape struts out, and since she has an impressive flying saucer, a killer fetish wardrobe, a condescending devil-girl attitude, and a disintegrator ray-gun you'd think she would have something better to do than give a half-a-dozen boring folks hanging around a Scottish pub a hard time and be a tough-ass bitch. She doesn't and I love her for it. The film suffers when The Devil Girl From Mars isn't on screen being a bitch in a shiny black cape and telling everybody how much they suck and how awesome she is; because then you have to watch people carry logs for the fire, make tea, eat soup, be boring, and have some sort of yawn-inducing relationship troubles and no one should want to watch that. I watched The Devil Girl From Mars on Youtube because I just loaded up my Netflix queue with crappy stuff and that makes a lot of sense, and I'm ready for our invading devil-girl overlords from Mars because they'd really liven up this puny, boring planet. Here's a trailer which needs a lot more devil girl in it but it'll do for now:
