shockingly suprised


this film was not at all what i expected.from the first scene of what looks like a model spaceship that could of been purchased at wal-mart i thought i would be tuning out quickly.this is a B movie but it packs a wicked punch.no doubt this films roots are in Aliens,Resident Evil but then again many attempts have been made to reproduce these types of films including some of the sequels and spin offs and have not been as good as this film.
i have not yet researched who the main cast was and were they were from but it was the strong performances of the major players in the film that keeps it going along with alot of fire power,some well placed gore and an evil element that adds another dimension to the film rather than a genetic experiment gone bad film wich we have seen over and over in the past 10 years or so.
this movie is not the end all but it is entertaining and suspensful and doesnt fall into the same formula traps that most genre films do.i really enjoyed this film..i would have to rate it a 8.0 on the curve with budget and all..compare it to a film like alien vs predator requium and this film is far superior on every level.thats just my opinion

well done folks!!!i loved the bloody mess!!!

It's hillarious you can so easily find the vested interest posts. By vest interest I mean somebody, somehow associated with the movie coming in with the "worth a look" to the "quite unexpected after all the trashing"

There's no set up. No back history. If this is in anyway acceptable to you, than I suggest you start watching Mighty Morphen Power Rangers...we're talking Deniro, Bridges, Hanks level acting compared to this! You'll be screaming "how was this pased over by the Emmies?"

"it was the strong performances of the major players in the film that keeps it going along"

OMFG... Are you kidding? This was absolutely horrendous... Specially the "actors".

I agree- I liked this film- it had a retro feel to it, and I just love australian b-movies I dont know why. It should be enjoyed for its cheese and aussy feel.
