This looks PAINFULLY bad


The trailer looked like something from 1981. Still, it might have some comic value.

Considering the man-power it took to create the trailer (1 guy and his dad as actor) it looks great and I don't mind I love "Indie" movies.

I like them too. On MST3K.

$50,000 budget. Somehow I doubt this thing is going to be the next Close Encounters of the Third Kind...

It not only looks PAINFULLY bad. It is!

I think it looks great, but then again I love independent Sci-Fi/Horror.

This thread is the equivalent of saying,"HEY EVERYONE LOOK HOW STUPID I AM!!11"

Maybe you guys should hang on the Transformers forum where the budgets are huge and everything looks perfect. Maybe let the people who enjoy independent movies like these make up their own mind.

Its a shame IMDB doesn't have better moderating to filter out pointless crap threads like these.

For $20,000 this was actually pretty decent. Although it did start to drag towards the end & the end in general kind of sucked. The production value was great for the money, it had some good looking chicks & the acting was good enough that it didn't stick out. Lots of cliche's but watchable, I've seen tons of worse films for 10-20X the cash.

Give me $10K and I will make a better one with my cell phone camera.
20K is a big amount for this piece of junk. It deplorably sucks even at its own level

The "storyline", as posted on the main page, sounds very intriguing. I am really interested in seeing this movie. So will it eventualy be out?

You could make 6,250 movies for $20,000 apiece and still spend only HALF of what it cost to make John Carter.

(I'm not making these figures up.)
