The Device Trailers

Abby and Rebecca Powell haven't seen each other since a traumatic event in their youth ripped them apart. Reunited for the first time in over a decade, the sisters take a trip to spread their mother's ashes at a secluded lake. As the sisters reconnect and try to heal old wounds, something waits in the nearby woods. A strange object, made not by the hands of man, beckons them to it. As they begin to try and unlock its secrets, Abby is plagued by nightmares of an alien presence that seem all too real. Little do the sisters realize that this object is actually a device, one with a purpose too horrible to comprehend. As the events of the past and the present begin to merge, new discoveries will threaten to tear apart their newly reformed family, and the inhuman creators of the device will attempt to finish a terrible experiment begun years before.

I enjoyed this move and would describe it as a sci-fi mystery thriller rather than a sci-fi horror.Two sisters (Abby and Rebecca) who are reunited to scatter the ashes of their dead mother come across a heavy, solid metal sphere, about the size of a tennis ball, in the mud. They have gone to a family cabin near the woods where something bad had happened to Rebecca many years ago which resulted in her having a termination of a pregnancy. Rebecca is not happy about the sphere and thinks they should leave it where it is but Abby is excited about it and takes it back to the cabin to show her boyfriend Calvin.Calvin becomes obsessed with the sphere, Abby starts have increasingly disturbing nightmares and Rebecca has a feeling of impending doom.I really like the dynamics of the relationships between the sisters and Calvin. There is no flirting between sister and sisters boyfriend which is refreshing. It's obvious that the sphere is alien but as a viewer of the movie the mystery as to what it is and what it does is intriguing. The effect it has on Calvin is also interesting.Although this isn't a 'fantastic' movie and could have done with more depth and development it still rates as a pretty good mystery sci- fi.

This is a real sleeper. Let me spare you the horror of wasting 90 minutes of your life and brain power watching this garbage.Here's the gist of the movie: 2 estranged sisters reconnect after the death of their mother. They travel to their ancestral cabin in the woods where the younger sister suffered a trauma many years ago. What was thought as an abduction/rape by her then boyfriend is later revealed as alien abduction and impregnation. they stumble on crash site where they find curious looking black sphere. The black sphere (the device) is a beacon to tell the aliens (greys) their location - so they can come and collect the alien baby growing inside the host (the older sister).I hope I've convinced you to avoid this.

That's the worst film I've ever seen! It's terrible in all aspects.A black ball (a cheap wood billiard ball covered with cheap acrylic black paint) is found and brings white plastic aliens that kill by making people bleed by their noses -- like not even a half cup of fake blood is spilled!Don't waste your time with this piece of shizen!It's not really a sci-fi movie. I bet it was made as a fake production intended to scam the sponsors -- probably from government funds.Special effects? I think they've created a new category in the film industry: "C Movie" -- C for CRAP!Write down this name "Jeremy Berg" and avoid it!

Let's start by saying this movie is really bad! The acting is poor, I was so upset.. None of the 3 main actors can't act! The whole script felt short! The cover of the movie has nothing to do with the context in it! The whole movie is about a black ball and a tall mucus looking alien that does nothing but bring lots of light in dreams .. I was waiting for something to happen but it never did! I don't understand how this is a horror movie! There is no horror at all not even comedy that's whats sad! The whole thing is about 2 sisters whom haven't seen or talk to each other in 12 years, go all the way to a cabin, find a black ball and weird dreams ! I actually fasforward the movie a couple of times, that's how bored it got!! Save yourself from this nightmare... This movie failed the alien theme... No alien at all just a black ball!
