I was hesitant about renting a Blockbuster exclusive SciFi DVD because there is so much cheesey stuff on the SciFi channel and I thought this might be one of them. I took a chance and rented Outlander anyway and it is pretty good. Good story, good special effects, good acting (no major stars), good aliens, good monsters, good Vikings. If you are in the mood for a good SciFi, it is worth a rental. I don't want to say anymore and spoil the plot.
