Ste B This film starts as a semi ok cop movie And ends as terrible alien film. I appreciate that this a low budget film, And the production shows this. To give everyone the benefit of the doubt. They probably worked with what they had. There are a million things that don't make any sense in the plot. Answers no questions it raises at all. The acting feels like they are not in the same room together, And the cuts between scenes feel at random. (Feels like this is covering a poor location set/clearly it some very different areas) Jail house main door is clearly not in the room it's supposed to be for instance. The aliens are bad in movement, and the FX are poor and distracting. There is no real plot or character development. The whole thing would of or probably been better if it was 20 minutes shorter and didn't take it's self to seriously. The score isn't bad though. I personally like watching low budget films. But this isn't something I could in all good conscious recommend anyone watching. Rated 1.5 out of 5 stars 04/16/24 Full Review Audience Member So insanely boring!!!! Rated 0.5 out of 5 stars 02/07/23 Full Review Audience Member Sad, very sad. Acting bad, everything bad. Now my mood bad. Rated 1 out of 5 stars 01/11/23 Full Review Audience Member I'd definitely nominate this low-budget, poorly-scripted, poorly-acted, incoherent, incomplete mess as the worst movie of the 2020s. Rated 0.5 out of 5 stars 01/26/23 Full Review Audience Member This movie just could not keep my attention. I started watching it but was quickly bored. Ended up letting it play in the background for a while while I played games on my phone until I couldn’t even take that anymore. A lot of movies that have come out the past little while have been low budget, so that wasn’t a deal-breaker, but the acting was horrible, the dialogue was weak, and the special effects looked like they were done by a high school drama club. I was underwhelmed. Rated 0.5 out of 5 stars 04/11/21 Full Review good g really, really bad alien movie. the aliens having super-duper spaceship technology and cannot "grow" the blood they are feeding on? c'mon! and then they have to turn on humans to harvest blood from them? why not cows? then: the aliens have no carry on weapons, no security, no robots, no drones, so bad. the flew all the way to earth, to be so unprepared. while flying towards us, they obviously didn't wathch TV. and last but not least: why do aliens have to be always so ugly? really, not worth your time.
