THE AWAKENED is a REALLY cheap science fiction drama shot on an indie budget. The story is about a crashed flying saucer which is discovered deep in the woods and the problems it brings to those who find it. If I'm honest, the camera work and the budget are okay by genre standards, but the story feels dragged out and really misses the mark. Robert Picardo is first billed but has one of those cameo roles separate from the rest of the action, sitting in a chair with his phone clamped to his ear. It's not much of a part.
