Alien Showdown: The Day the Old West Stood Still

This was the worst movie I have ever seen. The effects where just terrible. The acting was bad. I did not even finish the whole movie. The aliens looked so HORRIBLE. I can not really say anything for that part because I obviously have not seen one before. But you can tell the first alien was a person in a costume. I would not waste my time watching this if I where you. One out of ten stars.

Writing, acting, plot and effects are just awful. They forgot to put in punching sounds on the fist fights which were nearly silent. On the plus side, Robert Amstler has a great body and fills out his costume nice. That's what the three stars are for.

Alien Predator War (2013) is the Cowboys vs. Aliens vs. Predator nonsense production that Asylum would have been ashamed of.

In this cheap flick, we get some kind of Roswell alien and a Predator dumped on the screen, who come to Earth and encounter unruly cowboys.

There's a time jump, and now we're in the present. There, Prof. Hermit and Dr. Hotchick are bothered by an alien artifact and records of alien invaders. We alternate back and forth between the Wild West and present. All clear so far?

The Predator has developed a few irritating habits on Earth. He finds bare-breasted women quite tasty.

The debris Predator made of rags and rubber scraps is one of the movie's lowlights. He is reminiscent of the waste product of a 4-year-old dropout from handicraft workshop.

The lighting and camera work are also bungling. The movie would have benefited from a lighting technician. In the forest, the actors' faces are constantly in the shadows. And they're actually traipsing around in the forest all the time.

Effects like fire and smoke look like they were added with a cell phone filter.

And what's with that stupid laser railgun with which the Predator never hits anything despite continuous fire? I could go on and on. But I am now calling it a day.

Aaaaah, no, there are sequels! Plural!

I enjoyed this film for what it was, just plain entertainment. There is some nudity. The plot is interesting. The acting was OK. Great scenery. At least it's interesting.

It is clear that I am rating this higher than others here. My reason is that I can see what could be with enough resources, acting, writing, and directing. It was easy to see the connection here with the Predator movies. I have been hoping to see a movie with a Predator in the old west. I am a fan of westerns and the Predator franchise. I hope this will inspire someone with the resources to take another attempt of making a better movie about cowboys and Predators. The effort here was good with what they had to work with and the movie held my attention until the end. Good job folks.
