      Audience Member I knew it would be like a bad Syfy tv movie, but it surprisingly found ways to get worse and worse. Makes little sense, schlocky, laughably inept alien incapable of getting by mattresses, cheap looking, poorly acted, and a climax where the alien is a fat guy in a t-shirt walking around a warehouse. Rated 0.5 out of 5 stars 01/25/23 Full Review Audience Member Ejecta is an ambitious and imperfect movie, but I don't think it comes close to being as crummy as some reviewers found it. I can see how it would have a hard time finding its audience - imagine if Samuel Beckett, in need of ping pong money maybe, had banged out a script for Roger Corman. A lot of the writing is excellent, and Julian Richings and Lisa Houle are wonderful actors. This is a good movie to watch if you prefer seeing somebody fail at being brilliant rather than succeed at being conventional. Plus, it has a truly scary monster - and I don't mean the alien. Rated 4 out of 5 stars 02/03/23 Full Review Audience Member Ejecta: Some of the scares in this low budget "aliens land in the woods" flick are actually good, just not nearly good enough to overcome a lame, nonsensical story. If only the filmmakers had spent as much time on a plot and character development as they did special effects... You will want to "ejecta" this one out of your DVD player long before its ending. C Rated 2.5 out of 5 stars 01/14/23 Full Review Audience Member I have no idea what the hell they were thinking. After an hour absolutely nothing has happened. Rated 1 out of 5 stars 02/07/23 Full Review born k Terror / Thrillers / Scifi on the same way of The X-Files...but this time a total failure. Bad (horrible) acting, bad story, bad efects, you name it, this movie have it. One of the worst things I watched this year. 3,0 / 10,0 Rated 1 out of 5 stars 03/31/23 Full Review Audience Member Maybe it's not the great movie but has a few good moments.

      Scott Tobias The Dissolve Burgess' script has an ingenious structure that leaves the middle of the story blank, but Ejecta doesn't improve by sketching in that central mystery. Rated: 2/5 Mar 2, 2015 Full Review Alan Scherstuhl Village Voice The whole never makes much sense, and there's entirely too much screaming, but the directors stage the shocks with wicked aplomb. Feb 24, 2015 Full Review Drew Hunt Slant Magazine The cogent character study nestled inside all the bombast remains crafty for its rare commingling of artful storytelling and genre nonsensicality. Rated: 3/4 Feb 23, 2015 Full Review Jared Mobarak The Film Stage Richings is fantastic as Cassidy, possessed by vulnerability yet never presented as weak. Rated: B Feb 28, 2016 Full Review Heather Wixson Daily Dead Over the course of Ejecta's 83-minute runtime, it felt like I was watching three very different movies at once, but they never quite all come together cohesively. The film also squanders a strong performance from Julian Richings. Rated: 2/5 Jan 6, 2016 Full Review Matt Donato We Got This Covered Ejecta is just another sci-fi flick without a true identity, playing off extraterrestrial stereotypes that have been used time and time again. Rated: 4/10 Mar 1, 2015 Full Review Read all reviews
