SPOILER: The movie itself is good, I did not like the main actress, it did not seem charismatic, and it got annoying, the ending is completely meaningless, and this is what harms the movie. An alien invasion, facing military, so far everything ok, but then the aliens kidnap the main character and turn him into a monster? Serious?

for those who are looking for good reviews, there aren't any.. i just joined IMDb to rate it 10/10 and maybe f*ck someone over. this movie can be used for making all other bad movies suck less highly recommend this for i have no problem watching any other movie after this one. it is also good if you are a masochist and you have so much free time and you don't know what to do with it

Cannot for the life of me understand the low rating but I presume it is because of the more true to life ending and lack of the usual clichéd American happy ending.For a low budget movie this one pulled out all the stops and is in my top ten of alien invasion movies.This is what would happen if aliens arrived - no schmaltzy good guys win in the end and that's what makes this a true classic as it veered away from the usual story lines and did its own thing. If an alien invasion force were able to navigate space to come to earth we truly would be ended - Just ask Stephen Hawking!Loved the main characters too and for the budget in which it was made it has to be commended. The truly original special effects; even the sound effects which were novel and not stolen from some other movie this deserves its place in the all time scifi top 50!

This movie is in my top 3 of the WORST "heroes" ever.Rarely have I watched a movie where ALL the main characters are such a bunch of stereotyped stupid, whiny, obnoxious, bickering, self-centered jerks.This KILLED the movie for me. The characters are so insufferable that it's painful to watch. In fact, you're relieved when they die/are abducted! In addition to that, the script was none too good, and the ending was stupid (total Deus ex machina, so lazy!).Too bad, because as a B-movie (I really like those), despite -or because of- the outrageous main idea, it could have been funny, but in the end, it's not. What a waste.I'm giving it a 3 because the effect were good, but I think I'm being generous here.
