It's definitely a SyFy Channel wannabe, but actually with a far better plot and cinematography. The biggest con is it takes forever to truly get to the action with the "aliens". While the build up is decent it lacks energy. The direction and story building is there but the actors for the most part seem to just go through the actions. The fact that the build up takes so long and you invest in watching for a payoff the payoff comes slate and leaves the movie open as if this were a pilot or the beginning of a series of movies and with the premise used. Sadly, because of that the ending was empty as a standalone.

Low budget is not a curse untill it meets low scriptwriting, confusing shooting and editing, hilarious dialogues, sound probably recorded on Nokia 3310 and... well THAT acting. Actually this movie is quiet a masterpiece. You can show it to a film school students as an example how do NOT make movies.

The Mayan curse is revealed....expedition to jungle...locate evil reptilian aliens from the Pleiades. Carla Ortiz is our sexy low budget Angelina including bikini, tight clothes, sex scene, and side nudity in case you miss Lara. The space ship you see on the DVD cover is in the very last clip. Most of the film consisted of drama as they look for the hidden Mayan location. The Pleiades is a group of stars. While they look bunched together, they are really many light years apart. The whole idea that one race evolved in the this group on separate planets and with a need to consume human souls light years away didn't make it in my book as something well thought out. When it comes to science fiction, I understand you have to give a mulligan or two, but their origin details were like a ridiculous episode of Ancient Astronauts. Guide: F-word, brief sex, side nudity.

This is one of the worst movies I have watched in quite a while. Story line is terrible and so is the acting. There is no continuity in the story. Things happen for no reason and the story jumps in time. The ending was horrible. If you have time to kill and you enjoy terrible films, then this is for you. Otherwise, stay away from this junk.
