Trivia
Production caused producer Carlos Aured to completely retire from filmmaking. In a 1999 interview with Fangoria, Aured mentioned that he tried several times to get the filmmakers to take a more professional approach to the film, but the Spanish crew was too laid back. As a result, the film went over schedule and over budget, from which they shifted all the debts onto Aured, once filming was complete.

Goofs
When Mr. Bodi's corpse falls down, he is shown to have been decapitated, but in the next shot of his corpse lying down, his head is completely attached.

Quotes
Damon: Uh, Sam...
Samantha 'Sam': Hmm?
Damon: I could definitely fall madly in bed with you.

Alternate versions
Although uncut by the BBFC the UK video version featured a heavily edited print which removed all the shots of Michael discovering dead mutilated bodies and shortened the shot of the alien erupting through a man's face. Additionally, this version is also presented as "Mutant II."

Decent sci-fi horror with a bit of grue.

The young American tourists in Spain encounter lethal alien lifeforms that were brought to Earth by Apollo 14 then tested on animals aboard SkyLab.But SkyLab has now crashed to Earth and the aliens have survived,infect the locals and messily killing them.The trio of young people pick up a NASA scientist who has to get an antidote to a nearby laboratory."Alien Predator" was one of the very first horror films I have seen as the kid.That's why I can't give it a negative rating,even though the pace is lethargic and the gore is kept to minimum.However the film is suitably dark and atmospheric and offers a few creepy moments.The acting is decent and the characters are likeable.6 out of 10.
