Pretty good - but some things to take note of

Rating: 8/10 (21 September 2004)

I Saw the movie. It was pretty good - but just a few comments (some of you budding film directors ought to take notes).
The Aliens were too ugly up close - the bad guys have to look cool - these critters looked too much like zombies or cheap horror movie creatures up close - from a distance they were OK - dark and scary and alien but being so disgusting up close ruined the effect..
There were a couple of good scenes - good atmosphere, and the movie almost went over to being a war of the worlds type picture - would have made a great serial if the aliens kept at it...(A world ruined..scary aliens rounding people up..)
Second the religious aspect was overdone - it's OK to make having faith part of a movie- but the whole religious thing almost made it into another "Prophecy" or "Excorcist" or some other dark corny backward religious-horror flick..Not that I have anything against religion - but religious horror flicks are too dark and somehow uncool I think..
