Atomic Brain Invasion

I grew up on movies like The Goonies and Explorers. These movies shaped me, drove a childhood of pure imagination and remain some of the favorite memories of my life. With ATOMIC BRAIN INVASION, Richard Griffin created a film that took me right back. Atomic was a master achievement in writing, directing, acting, and production design. Amazing effects and design give the film a distinct flavor of 1950's Sci-Fi Drive-In style, and the authenticity is stunning. Ted Marr's production is spot on, and detail oriented. The cast is brilliant and funny, hitting all the right notes in their delivery of fun, pure character driven performance. Kudos to all. My kids will grow up with this film.

I saw Atomic Brain Invasion at its premier and loved it. This is old fashioned sci-fi at it's best, with a modern twist. The story line had laughs and chills for all ages. It's reminiscent of Jim Hensen's work in the way the same lines work for different age groups for different reasons. Griffin is masterful at building suspense and directing his cast for the maximum effect. And the cast really caught the flavor of the 50's and the genre. Almost as much fun as the movie was the audience response. I've never been to a movie before where everyone stayed through the credits. This movie is just a wonderful romp of a film. Definitely go see it!

I like Richard Griffin's movies. But this is not a good one. The only thing that made the movie watchable was a very strong indie cast. I think the writing was good. But I have a feeling the actors were left out to dry by the director.

Michael Reed , Sarah Nicklin, & Brandon Aponte really stand out for actors. The effects were pretty solid for a low budget movie. The monsters were really pretty cool.

Griffin's best is Exhumed of Nun of That. His worst may be this one or The creature from the Hillbilly Lagoon. It's a shame because I really wanted to like this movie.
