    Took on a concept it couldn't handle.

    Take out the horrible cgi, i mean disgustingly bad. They should never have even added that one creature, all that did was make me go, wow this is horrible 20 times. it holds onto the girl for 10 minutes , pulls her away from the torch when shes stretching to get it but guess who still managed top grab the torch even though she was suppose to be farther from than before....

    The ship and tech these aliens have makes me think, mankind can go raid a planet with what we have now, the inside of the ship with the lever to steer or shoot looks like a freaking OLD ship. Only thing more advance was those crappy laser that buddy couldn't hit anything with 2 feet away.

    Fight scenes weren't the worst, what i expected from it. very coincidental how everything plays out so well, riding a ship back to earth yet not being detected by these aliens. we have tech to see if anythings in our airspace so why couldn't the aliens? when he landed it was next to the few survivors left... luckily.

    Crumby acting or just how the aliens acted in general, their fight scenes sucked. they look like there wearing masks. everything felt so scripted or convenient, too predictable.

    That being said, wasn't a bad movie. probably a 5 if it wasn't for the pointless monster scene, all that did was make me hate it and the whole alien concept, don't make something you cant make look at least half decent, come on...

    so just make this into a normal movie basically, based on end of the world and meeting people like Kelly mad dog and their adventures with harry would definitely have been better.

    Dumb, Fast Moving B Movie Trash = Fun!

    Dumb, Fast Moving B Movie Trash = Fun!

    Its about aliens.....well....look its a mix of star Wars, planet of apes, buck Rodgers and taken gun.

    Just fun.

    An interesting Sci-Fi mix.

    This movie combines Star Wars, Battlestar Galactica, Mad Max and Ray Harryhausen stop motion monsters. There's even a Sylvester Stallone look-a-like and a girl from Virginia with an Australian accent. While that all sounds very unoriginal, it worked out better than you would think. It's not as good as any of the movies it steals from but it's worth watching.

    Fans of no budget, creative film making will enjoy.

    This no-budget genre rollercoaster starts out as a futuristic heist movie, then turns into a space opera, then becomes an isolated man survival story and finally resolves into a post apocalyptic road movie. And there's stop motion aliens.

    Wow.

    The first half was a tough watch.. it feels like a student film that they are taking way too seriously and yet simultaneously don't realize it's not as funny as they think it is. Only the Hero character seems to have ANY acting experience.

    In the second half they seem to finally find the tone of their 'so bad it's good' movie and we get incredible dialogue such as: 'prison... it's not the character building experience they advertise' and my favorite: 'Oscar Wilde... for a fag he had some good ideas.'

    Along the way we meet a Zach Galafianakis style stoner woodsman and a Tom Savini biker lookalike.

    Recommended for only fans of creative film making with NO budget, ala Miami Connection or Dark Star.

    A teenage boy's fantasy

    The plot of the film seems like the late-night fantasies of a teenage boy. It is a fairly generic by-the-books sci-fi action film, navigated by a hero who never fails in any task. Elements of the production (particularly the special effects and costume design) are rather charming in how cheaply they appear to have been done.

    • Trivia
      Brett Piper said in a 2011 interview that making this film was a nightmare. They ran into trouble which caused them to go over schedule, and then all but one of the actors started demanding that their pay be doubled for every additional day and that they receive their money in cash each day before they'd shoot. Piper said that meant he spent half the day running around trying to get the money which drove them further behind schedule, which cost even more money. In the end the cast was disappointed with how the film came out, saying it looked cheap and rushed. Piper said, "Gee, I wonder why?" He added that if that happened today, he'd fire everyone and rewrite the script, but he was too inexperienced at the time.

      In about 50 minutes of the movie when main character is fighting the huge alien creature nude, he is clearly wearing jeans when lying down on the ground and naked again in the next shot.
