excellent detective work rsigley,but apart from the fact that they've changed position( i.e. the aliens now on top), it does beg the question 'Do you think you might have a bit too much time on your hands?'

Take one for the team? You mean watch Feast? My friend, Feast is a GREAT movie. Much of Feast is bad, but it's all intentional as the movie was very much meant to be a parody of the horror genre. It makes it very obvious by having descriptions of characters in the beginning, including telling viewers how long they have to live.

By the way, I have to commend the TC for this great find. I had not realized this myself either. If the movie was meant to be an imitation of Feast, it's a pretty poor imitation.

Pleased to meet you.

No way someone can compare this movie with FEAST, Feast is awesome! And this one is really bad :(

My sentiments exactly.

I'm watching it right now. So far FEAST is 1000x better.
