Alternate Ground

Why did I watch this? The only decent acting in the movie was the kid. This is a typical alien abduction movie, except in this one there is no action, no mystery, no nothing. Why do people even bother making these low budget movies? Why not pool the money and hire a real production company, real actors, a real story, and plot, and put something out that is not this, and many others like it.

Today I logged on to IMDb - driven by an unstoppable force, set in motion by watching this film. As I endured the continuous onslaught of scenes that 'Alternate Ground' provides - I felt truly challenged to imagine a more horrifying mixture of desultory acting and zealless camera-work.

What made it a truly exceptional experience for me, was actually coming here to write the above, and seeing this title has in fact won 13 awards.

This film fully opened my eyes to the exciting new depths the bar has apparently been lowered. So thrilled to see what the future still holds!

(How I wish the Mayans had been right about 2012...)

Horrifyingly BAD, student film, or made for Lifetime movie. Yes it is that bad. Contains horrible story, horrible acting, really no effects worth mentioning. It's just bad. But, I made it to the end so it gets a 2/10.

I got through it, despite a bucket full of flaws. A low budget indie, that with a bigger budget and nice confidence from the director, a good take on the abduction genre would come to the surface.

There is something worthwhile here, don't forsake it for seeing movies as Marvel blockbusters.

When you pick a movie , you are taking your chances these days. The B movies are the worst. Made cheap, slow moving and wishing these movie makers would get a ticket for producing this crap!

The idea for the movie is great. The movie is amateurish and slow. The mom seems to be casted so badly. She doesn't even look closely related to the kids. The lady that played the doctor, should've been the mom.

The kids and fathers acting was tolerable. You can kinda tell that the kid is loosing time. Abduction kind a stuff. Casting sucked, actors boring. I guess anybody can make a movie these days. Skip it if you can.
