Grotesque Sentimentality

Rating: 1/10 (12 March 2019)

The grotesque imagery mixed with relationship anguish and sentimentality is indicative of Korean and Japanese horror cinema. But the story is purely Invasion of the Body Snatchers with an astonishing amount of CGI.
Wireless communications don't work in the first fifteen minutes of the film. So why didn't they just drag a hardline into the danger zone? Stupid question, I know, which would negate the whole story - going into the unknown and coming back.
I wish I had just re-watched the 1978 masterpiece with Donald Sutherland and Brooke Adams than suffering through this visually unappealing nonsense.
