Alien Blood Trailers

Spoof science fiction. An alien mother and her child are pursued across England by a bunch of incompetent government agents and take refuge in a house full of vampires. Homage back to the camp tone of British directors of the 1970's such as Ken Russell, (The Lair Of The White Worm), Robert Fuest, (Dr Phibes Rises Again), and Joe McGrath, (The Magic Christian). Distributed by Troma in the U.S., it contains violence, nudity and exploding bagpipes.

It's complicated... I really like the directing, acting and writing but, there are issues with the way it's shot that I just can't deny. As much as I love the storytelling and the fantastic performance but, there are also certain scenes that didn't need to exist.

Although I seem to have had higher expectations than I thought, the movie is super entertaining.

Exactly the movie you think it is, but not the movie you want it to be.

It is a whirlwind of delight --- attractive actors, stunning couture, spectacular sets and outrageous parties. It's a feast for the eyes. But what really makes this dramedy work is the acting.

OK, so just to show the other side of a review for this movie..Firstly the movie contains huge amounts of slow motion footage, presumably to pad out the running time for DVD sale.Secondly the movie is filmed entirely without dialogue for a large part of it!Music IS running in the background (like some old black and white silent movie, with music dubbed over the top), so for most of the time it could qualify as a silent movie with music!I only paid 99 pence (about a dollar ?) for it, but I was still a bit disappointed!Could have been better, much better!Okay, it is an amateur film (aren't all Troma films?), filmed cheaply in the UK, but YES the story has potential..

This film is awesome! How can you not like a film that contains the following: ***WARNING -- SPOILERS*** (although I defy anyone to spoil THIS film) 1) A lecherous farmer, who has the first lines in the film following what is essentially a twenty minute introduction filmed in an "artistic" manner . -- "Do you like horses lad?" 2) A house full of Cumbriam vamps (that happily walk around in the daytime, dressing each other. Yes thats right. Dressing) -- headed by none other than the prince of darkness, Dracula himself, who for the purposes of this film, is also known as "James". He is an ageing sleaze, and locks his current bride in the basement with the hope of biting some of the other random vamps floating around. Apparently Dracula is not what he used to be -- he jumps at small noises, nearly biting off his tongue when surprised by the other members of the household, including a psychic, who spends 95% of her screen time in the bath. He also says sh!t when turned down for a biting.3) A french, fruit-eating alien. Who kills Dracula with a handgun.4) Vamps stripping because they are "too visible" 5) A fire juggler who is assassinated by the "Men In Black" 6) A bagpiper who meets the same fate.7) You would have thought that a director that can get away with using the same piece of film...exactly the same piece of film..12+ times during the invasion scene couldn't get anymore awesome..You would be wrong. Sorenson puts his masterful directing skills to work -- and reverses the shot! GENIUS!! And Finally : hearing the sound man sneeze (its either that or random sound effects, the inclusion of which is beyond me) Anyway..watch it, its great for a laugh ;)

I got this film in a dirt-cheap double DVD pack for the amazing price of £1.42, not bad XD. The description on the back was somewhat misleading as it mentioned "A house full of vampires", but actually the "Vampires" are only people having a fancy dress party (i didn't think Count Dracula's real first name was Frank anyway). There are a few faults with the film, such as a LOT of stock footage towards the end, how many times do we see the same two ..er.. badguys fall off a hill, one being zapped mid-drop. Also there are a few odd sounds dubbed on for no real reason (like farts and burps), and nearly every dying enemy moans in the same way. Plus at the start you don't really know what is happening as there is zero dialouge, except for a farmer talking about his horse. when people do talk its generally very quiet and hard to hear. Also near the end one woman takes off her big red frilly dress and says "we should get into something more appropriate", except she just stays in her underwear, not really the right clothes to hold off an armed siege. Finally the CGI spaceship looks pretty dodgy, they should have used a model suspended from fishing wire, it probably would have looked better, and been cheaper!. Still, this is quite a good film overall, if you can get past those "bugs", its kind of like a cross between The X-Files and Heartbeat (at the end they are all wearing 1960's clothes, if only one of them was driving the Ford Anglia seen on a farm...).

After purchasing this film from a nearby scrubber shop I was most astounded by its graphical brilliance. Jon Sorenson went all out on the alien special effects and in my opinion has achieved something particularly commendable. Full of twists and turns along the way, this awesome storyline kept me on the edge of my seat. I particularly enjoyed the bit where you watch a bunch of ugly losers the house for about 1 hour, the best bit being when Tom p***es on his shoe. During the film the camera crew can be heard sneezing and farting on numerous occasions which all adds to the sci-fi atmosphere. The fight seens are breath taking, the best bit being when the woman hits the butler in the face with a tray and then kicks him in the shin, OUCH!!! Overall I have given this film 10\10 and I expect you will do the same when you have seen it, go buy it now it only cost me £15.99 for the DVD, BARGIN!!!
