This right here folks, this is what you call a quality bad movie. Everything that's shoddy about this movie only serves to making it more entertaining. At the time of (re)writing this review, I recently finished my second viewing of this cinematic marvel in order to properly compare it to its (inferior) sequel. It was every bit as good as I remember it being, if not better.
There are a myriad of elements worth mentioning: the acting, the time captions that make the movie look like a news report, the poorly CGI'd UFOs, the paper mache aliens, one which kills a guy by poking him in the neck (the sticks used to move his arms are too clear to miss), the abduction, the iconic hospital scene, the... actually... I should probably stop there. It's better you see this for yourself to fully grasp the power of these scenes anyway.
The only flaws are some drawn-out scenes where nothing happens, and the alien's growling which gets grating on the ears after a while.
Still though, I cannot comprehend how it is possible for any human being to hate this movie? Do you hate fun? Do you hate laughter? Joy? The fact that the Polonia Bros. were even born is solid evidence pointing towards the existence of an Almighty creator - or maybe two!
