Sometimes I enjoy a low budget science fiction film like this, mindless fun. Interesting that Chakotay from Star Trek Voyager is in this film, it took me a minute to figure out it was him as he looks a little older and has gained some weight. There is a really cute news crew camera lady that gets killed off in the film, could not find her name in the cast list. I read the main review but disagree as this is not a big budget film and I don't expect to great special affects and great acting, but I enjoy seeing minor B level actors sometimes. I saw the film today in Thailand on my cable TV Syfy Universal Channel. So if you just want to relax and watch a fun film and see some rookie actors with some seasoned B level actors, this is worth a look.

I thought that Cheryl Ladd was very good and the troubled little girl that played her stepdaughter did an excellent job. My only negative comment would be the male lead actor was a little week, but everyone else did a great job. Also, interesting to note, the little boy (about 8 or 9 years old) is now the teenage kid on 3rd rock from the Sun. This is a 3-4 Kleenex film.
