Being

An absolutely awful indie attempt at a sci-fi thriller. A group of obnoxious characters shout and argue inside a farmhouse while a bright light occasionally shines in through the windows. Lance Henriksen and Robert John Burke have about five minutes screen time chatting. Avoid.

If you want to watch a movie where a bunch of Christian nuts believe that an alien being is a demon, then this one is for you. If not, then skip this one, not worth the 90 minutes.

Ok, so you saw the funky looking cover then saw the venerable Lance Henriksen in the top title - Yeah it is marketing garbage at its worst!

Poor old Lance seems to just take any old crapulous movies these days to pay the bills - From Aliens to this tosh it is pretty sad when you see such accomplished and great actors in films like these but get it right; he is only in the movie for about 5 mins as with most of his movie cameos these days, yet they stick him in top billing - marketing eh!

As for the movie, it bears nothing in regards to the advertising picture - there is nothing but people chatting in a room (badly) throughout the entire movie; presumably as the budget was spent on all the pretty once Grade-A actors like Ben Browder and Robert Burke - how sad, I actually felt sorry for them having to wade through this quagmire of calamity, a miasma of putrid script writing, a tragedy of photographic ineptness, a cataclysm of Cgi...you get the drift!

Avoid this film at all costs it is one of the worst films I have seen this year, the type of film you can use as a soporific to summon sleep --- yawwwwwnnn!

OK, I did have a Jack Daniels or three which may have helped, and Lance Henriksson was in Alien.. I can't explain what it was all about, it was like an undergraduate maths lecture, understanding seemed much closer than it actually was, It held my attention, and I think I might have actually enjoyed it, try it when it comes to Netflix or Prime, which will be soon. Definitely worth a viewing. Keep the JD handy....

Why? because this is so weak technically, and far too slow progression, and daft story to catch the big audience, e.g. me and you, maybe not you in the corner, but nearly almost all of us.

its a story about a bright light, no kaboom, just a blink of light, and a big hole in the ceiling... sounds like a good start but... so after that youre towed into the interrogation room where two police detectives dig and grills one person, how he did it, where the victims are, why he did it and so on. the rest of the story is a tell tale by the innocent culprit by using the flashback storytelling method. could be good but... in the end though you will be in for a surprise though so hang on to whatever to reach that goal...

end of my story spoiling, acting, well there are two persons that do stand out above the others, and the interrogated caracter does a good job, very natural . the rest seems to be on a sunday school trip to the other side of space, traveling the wormhole highway inside a wornout tear down ready rural house out in nowheremansland.

i guess the whole mystical scifi thing is called the holy trinity, where jesus, God and the holy spirit is the main caracters. there are some philosophic passiars and dialouges that may make you start thinking sincerely, but the rest makes you think of all the aerends you really have to do before going to bed, hopefully without neutron bombs, power outages, electromagnetic pulses, and telephonelines still working, yes they work... after an emp... there are quite a few inconsistencies believe me. this film is parsecs away from starwars and back to the future quality, and in the U.K's FA soccerdivisions, its 3rd above the bottom line in the second division , so its not premier league, championship nor first division.

so break a leg hillbillies out there, the pain might be better than this torturous experience thinks the grumpy old man. just two stars to illuminate their shine the light problems so they dont fall into that black hole of their vicinity
