I watched this movie a while back and holy *beep* is the worst piece of garbage I have ever seen..its unwatchable. Never have I fast forwarded a movie before and the only reason I did that is because I was compelled to see what directorial terrors await. This movie is so bad that it goes beyond b-movies, past the letter and into numbers.
shareHi, entity. You might get some chuckles from this review, which ironically, is one of my favorites:

TERRARIUM (aka WAR OF THE PLANETS) is definitely career start up fodder - a no budget flick, shot in a backyard, yet got a huge release. The trick is to take these kind of 'Z' budgets and make them seem much bigger. I've learned some new tricks, since shooting TERRARIUM, in 2000'. EXILE is next and it could be a movie that you really like. :>)
I enjoyed the movie...it was a little stiff and slow, alot was left unexplained, and the effects cheesy, but for me it was a fun flick.

I have to agree. The writing stunk--dialogue was terrible and the acting was beyond bad. Plot was stupid...just a bad movie.

Oh come on, yes the writing and acting were not great, but the plot was actually pretty sound. With a bigger budget and a more workable script this story could have potential....people being the ones being probed and poked and torn apart, locked in cages and tormented. There are way worse movies than this one.

This movie was not just bad; it was *jar-droppingly* bad. Everything was very amateurish, as if it was a college film student's project. The computer animated effects were worse that those found in most video games. The sets were minimal. The acting was bad. The "alien" was horrible. Truly a masterpiece of garbage.
shareI disagree. I thought this film was quite enjoyable. Moreover, "Manos: The Hands of fate" is much, much worse.
