Mjeteconer Just perfect...
Dirtylogy It's funny, it's tense, it features two great performances from two actors and the director expertly creates a web of odd tension where you actually don't know what is happening for the majority of the run time.
Lollivan It's the kind of movie you'll want to see a second time with someone who hasn't seen it yet, to remember what it was like to watch it for the first time.
Mathilde the Guild Although I seem to have had higher expectations than I thought, the movie is super entertaining.
suite92 Old friends get together for a weekend in the woods. Sandy and Hayden hit it off immediately, sharing sex and drugs. Michael brought his photographer friend Brian. Robert and Jenny are together, but are bickering. Annie and Glen seem to be unattached. They look at the stars which are very clear out in the middle of nowhere. There are also shooting stars. One lands relatively nearby. Some of them are high, and decide to go find it.Hayden does not come back, so they go looking for him. They find him, a bit worse for the wear. Thing move back toward normal, somewhat, except for Jenny's telling Robert that she is pregnant. Shelly disappears about the same time that the lights go out. The search is on. They find her, and she's a bit garbled in her responses. They decide to leave, but none of their four vehicles will start.Then the elimination derby is on. One after another the aliens take over the minds and wills of the people in the party.Will anyone survive the onslaught? ------Scores-------Cinematography: 7/10 Well done for a low budget film.Sound: 8/10 Not too bad.Acting: 0/10 Michael Cornacchia and Anne Griffin were absolutely terrible. Stacy Jorgensen was also rather bad. The others were unconvincing.Screenplay: 2/10 There are lots of inconsistencies about what the aliens can do. There was a large percentage of the film that was just plain boring. The pointless yelling sequences were very irritating.SFX: 2/10 Amateurish; special effects were laughably bad.
GnarfleTheGarthok I saw that this movie had only one good review. So, I wanted to know if that one person was a wacko, or not. Anyway, the movie was not as bad as the other reviews said it was. Don't get me wrong, it wasn't great! The characters are pretty flat, and the drama they tried to build with personal relationships didn't really work. That being said, there was a little creepiness as long as they weren't showing you anything. Then, they pulled an "Insidious" and showed you too much with regards to the alien abductions and the experimentations. And provided a bad ending, to boot. All in all, if you have no other movies to watch, you could do a lot worse.
dchionsini Let me just say this at the beginning, don't waste your time on this. The only other movie worse than this is Chu Chu and the Philly Flash, which I didn't rent but suffered through. How anyone got 1.5M to make this is beyond my understanding. Goes absolutely nowhere in a hurry. Almost couldn't make it through the first 10 minutes and considered turning off. After sitting there for 30 minutes, I realized I'd made a bit of a time commitment and needed to see it through to the end. There are so many stupid aspects of the movie that it makes you wonder how the writers could produce this while laughing so hard. Haven't look to see what kind of return they got on the movie compared to the 1.5M. Would be interesting to see.
marc-cheyne This is probably the worst movie that has ever befallen me in my whole career as a movie-buff / slouch.Horrible writing - a 9th grader could write scarier scripts. Horrible acting - the cast make Ben Afflek look like de Niro. Horrible f/x - on par with Sesame St. Good location - but thoroughly neglected. Half-decent plot - besmirched & buried beneath everything else. Production - isn't too bad for a budget film.It would be in everyone's interest if Kai Blackwood abandons his dream of a directing career, and concentrate on his day job instead. Look out for this gem in your local supermarket's bargain bin!
