If you're in search for a couple of laughs, with supposedly dead-serious sequences you aren't supposed to laugh with, I can warmly recommend "Bio-Force 1". However, if you want to burst out with hysterical laughter, I do insist also checking out the trivia-section here on IMDb afterwards. There it is stated director David A. Prior originally wanted to cast Arnold Schwarzenegger, Jean-Claude Van Damme, Michael Ironside, Dee Wallace-Stone and Bill Duke for this film. Well, sure... Personally, I want to have a baby with Scarlett Johansson, but I'm pretty sure I don't have the money, nor the talent, nor the competences, and nor the Hollywood status to attract her attention. Maybe, just maybe, the reasoning is similar for you, David... Truly sorry!
But don't let the absence of the aforementioned stars ruin the fun for you! First of all, there are replacement stars, albeit admittedly not of the Schwarzenegger-caliber. We have Wilford Brimley, but I think he flew in from a beach holiday in the Bahamas just to cash his paycheck, because he wears a Hawaiian shirt and sunglasses even though he's supposed to be an army general. And Powers Booth, but I guess he starred for free because he gets a kick out of depicting the most cold and heartless villains imaginable.
The plot is vintage Prior, meaning dumb but amusing. The US-military created a biohazardous weapon so deadly and unpredictable they allegedly decide to shoot it to the moon. Instead, though, super-mean army dude Frost deliberately lets it crash in a backwoods area and sends a bunch of soldiers after it to test how the effects. The further the plot unfolds, the dumber the situations and dialogs become. Also typical for Prior-screenplays is explicit but un-shocking violence, shamelessly stolen elements from other (better...) blockbusters, and a too-ridiculous-for-words finale. Thank you, David A. Prior, and rest in peace.
