All of these films share one commonality, that being a kind of emotional center that humanizes a cast of monsters.

One of the worst ways to make a cult movie is to set out to make a cult movie.

Mercifully this movie is short. Even as it is short, it is much too long. In short, Earth is invaded by bug-creature/space-dinasaurs/alien-mongrels with definite orc qualities, apart from that the larger one seems self repairing. Of course earth defenses are over-run in 3 days. While the larger ones are self-repairing, the smaller ones are killable by axe. And while earth forces are putting up token resistance, earth seems to have developed scripted explosions and falling aircraft parts that avoids maiming the main characters of the story in explosions in the range of 10 meters. But this is nothing to the deficiency of the unstopable invaders that create indestructible war ships, manage space flight, but can't equip photographic arms with 350 degree lenses.If you still think this is a good a worthy film to spend your time on, please remember the Internet saying "What has been seen, cannot be unseen." I am talking about the ending of course. Why someone in any fram of mind would think that spending the rest of your miserable life in a cell surrounded by dead or dying people waiting to be harvested is a hopeful ending should be beyond any rational thinking being. But apparently not, and it is probably the only derense that works against the aliens - poison them with idiot brains and ideas....The ending deducts 2 from the total score.

for those who are looking for good reviews, there aren't any.. i just joined IMDb to rate it 10/10 and maybe f*ck someone over. this movie can be used for making all other bad movies suck less highly recommend this for i have no problem watching any other movie after this one. it is also good if you are a masochist and you have so much free time and you don't know what to do with it

Cannot for the life of me understand the low rating but I presume it is because of the more true to life ending and lack of the usual clichéd American happy ending.For a low budget movie this one pulled out all the stops and is in my top ten of alien invasion movies.This is what would happen if aliens arrived - no schmaltzy good guys win in the end and that's what makes this a true classic as it veered away from the usual story lines and did its own thing. If an alien invasion force were able to navigate space to come to earth we truly would be ended - Just ask Stephen Hawking!Loved the main characters too and for the budget in which it was made it has to be commended. The truly original special effects; even the sound effects which were novel and not stolen from some other movie this deserves its place in the all time scifi top 50!

A man and his pregnant girlfriend visits his very wealthy brother for his birthday. Meanwhile, they encounter a couple of strange light beams which shine very brightly and attract anyone who looks at them. As predicted, they're being attacked by aliens so a painful fight for survival begins.It is a movie which tries to present an alien invasion but fails miserably in every single aspect imaginable. Its characters are as retarded as they can get, although we're talking about grown up men and women, almost every single action or decision taken makes you scratch your head in wonder. They simply insult your intelligence with everything this movie depicts, from the way aliens attack and can be attacked to the way each human being decides to fight back or stand and wait for rescue. I thought that its visuals would sweeten even a bit the sour taste that its retarded, pointless and mind boggling events left me, but they didn't. I'm not saying that they're bad, but it's very hard to enjoy some good CGI when the characters that interact with it desperately want to be killed and are capable to do anything in accomplishing their goal, although they try to tell you that they are struggling for survival.Furthermore, to put the cherry on top of the cake, the finale is as stupid as it is unexpected. I'm not going to tell you what it is in case you actually want to see this garbage but it is as disappointing as the movie itself. It makes me wonder...How hard do you have to try to realize a movie as bad as this one?It is by far the worst movie I have ever seen in my entire life and I pray to God to let this one be the last "creature" of its kind I am to see. I honestly tried to like it but as every second passed, it became even more unbearable. For your own intelligence's sake, don't waste your precious time or even worse, your hard earned money, with this abomination.
