*SPOILERS GALORE*
I have to say I enjoyed the film a great deal. Overall the special effects were good - I also liked the idea that stones circles were being used as landing pads (reference to star gate) I did hope that the aliens would look a bit more alien, but I can understand that a lot of the money must have gone on the CGI and gore effects so there had to be some compromise. I hope that the director continues with this kind of genre and slaps out some more of these kinda films.
I did think a few of the characters were a bit cheesy - namely the mad welsh lass that had the alien baby inside her, she was good up the the point of the alien climbing out of her body - then she seemed to just run around loony tunes, her family started out a bit cheesy - but I kinda warmed to them later when they battled the "Evil Aliens" it was nice to see a love interest in one of the funniest and strangest combinations of couples trapped together.
*************************** Most enjoyable moments **** ***************************
Character actor getting crucified up his ass! - has to be the best special effect I have seen in a long time!
Combine harvester - bits of bodies flying everywhere - looked a lot better than i thought it might!
head on a stick - literally!
************************ Most Cheesy moments **** ************************
Alien slipping on a banana. (bit too cheesy for my liking)
Woman getting her legs ripped off (sorry but you could SO tell she was laying on the floor with half her body under the floor!)
This film definitely has repeat viewing value - good thing to as its movie night tomorrow and guess whats on :)
