good back-story, and good acting

By the time the dramatic fireworks start popping off, each one feels earned.

Although I seem to have had higher expectations than I thought, the movie is super entertaining.

Exactly the movie you think it is, but not the movie you want it to be.

'Evil Aliens' is Britain's answer (or rather 'homage') to 'Evil Dead,' only with aliens, obviously. It's about a camera crew who travel to Wales to film a local's story about how she was impregnated by an alien baby and, once there, they discover that there's more to the country than just a rogue sheep.There are no recognisable actors in this film (unless you count the cameo from Norman Lovett from Red Dwarf and even he's hardly on form). Therefore, the cast appear largely as novices to their profession. Please don't expect any form of Oscar-worthy performances here. Secondly, the special effects are pretty hit and miss. Those created by CGI are pretty below par and akin to something you'd expect to see on the Sci-fi Channel's worst offerings. However, the effects created by generally ripping people apart and severing limb with garden tools are actually pretty decent (if you like seeing people being run over and splatting under combine harvesters).With it's poor acting, clichéd dialogue and so-so effects, 'Evil Aliens' is a pretty poor offering. However, it does have one saving grace. It KNOWS it's a poor offering. It never tries to be a great work of art, therefore it does come across as quite 'knowing.' It knows what it is and it never tries to be anything else. That leaves you to just sit back, put your brain on hold and enjoy watching people being chopped up in as many and varied ways possible.No matter how bad it gets, the classic scenes just keep coming. I've already hinted to the combine harvester, but there are also such delights as alien sex, alien 'Jerry Springer' shows, inbred Welsh farmers engaging in a stand-off against psychotic, bloodthirsty monsters and a low-grade dominatrix who just so happens to be an awesome shot with a shotgun.If you're looking for a deep and meaningful film, you won't find it here. If you're looking for a fun, gore-fest to generally laugh at how bad it is, then you should appreciate it.

The Camera work was extremely bad. The acting was also bad and sounded like it was being read from a script. The story was pure rubbish and the special effects looked like it was made without any kind of budget.The fact this can even be classed as horror is a joke, it's more like a terrible comedy with the worst costumes for the aliens. The 'horror' scenes are so predictable it's almost boring.This was clearly aimed at the teenage boy audience since it contains aliens and women showing their bust for 80% of the 'movie'.If you're looking for a good movie, this isn't it. The only decent bits were with the farmers who added some decent comedic value to the movie, who were soon killed off, making the movie boring again.

This was one of the worst movies i've ever seen. I appreciate that you are on a low budget but there's no excuse for this kind of garbage. It's got every kind of cliché, from the down home country folk to the sex obsessed aliens. There's sex all over the place and really bad gore. It's about as fun as watching the Parliamentary channel while drinking a flat diet coke and waiting for your desperately needed turn in the bathroom. The characters are all cardboard cutouts. There's the dumb hot girl, the gay guy, the nerd, the country girl, the weird country brother, the serious hot girl. When one dies you really won't care. I would avoid this.

It's difficult to describe the tone of this movie, which walks somewhere between "Shaun of the Dead" and "An American Werewolf in London". As other reviewers have stated, it is perhaps most similar to Peter Jackson's "Brain Dead"/"Dead/Alive". If you like this genre, you'll probably love the movie. If you don't, you won't get the humor and the whole thing will seem infantile and disgusting.I'm not sure what the budget was for EA, but the director and producers did a pretty good job for what they had to work with. The CGI alien ships are a bit distracting, but the CGI crashes and explosions are pretty hi-quality. The practicals aren't bad either, though you wonder if it's really that easy to pull arms and legs off (TFIC).The homages to other films come about every three minutes, so you do have to decide if you're going to consider them to be rip-offs or loving tips of the hat. I personally think it would make for a great drinking game..."OK, that's from 'Evil Dead' so everyone take a shot." The acting is about par for these types of films, but much better than most modern B-film horror. The Welsh farmers are hilarious.Check it out. My girlfriend would just roll her eyes at it, but I've watched it three times and it remains consistently interesting and hilarious.
