Did they do the CG with MS Paint?

This movie was just awful, and it takes a lot for me to say that. I didn't make it through ten minutes, and most of that was getting drinks.

Hahahahaha...I'm with you...hahahahah...(MS Paint...that was classic.)....I laughed all the way through the beginning...it's on The Movie Channel right now as I type this....this movie is HIGH-larious. I just heard the best line ever..."This sh*t's gonna blow like fireworks on the 4th of July!".

Question: How did they get Pepsi to let them show a soda machine with their logo in this movie?

Another question: Where is Mystery Science Theater 3000 when you need it. This movie is definitely fodder for those guys.

Good times...

Considering how the creature works-- with its telepathic ability to cause you to hallucinate your deepest desires-- my immediate thought upon seeing the Pepsi machine was that the black guy was craving a Pepsi.

WORST GOD DAMN MOVIE EVER!!!

It was like the CGI was the very first rudimentary attempt. Unlike other productions that keep applying more and more layers of realism to fine tune the effect, this movie just said, "Nah, looks fine as is".

I didn't make it past the first 5 minutes. I like horror movies, but when I saw the graphics, I couldn't take it seriously.
