An Exercise In Nonsense
There are moments in this movie where the great movie it could've been peek out... They're fleeting, here, but they're worth savoring, and they happen often enough to make it worth your while.
Worth seeing just to witness how winsome it is.
This has all the makings of an underground camp hit, but just barely misses the mark. It is funny and totally does not take itself seriously. So if you are looking for a serious sci-fi, horror, or gore pic--well this is the wrong flic for you. And you will be offended. If you want a mindless somewhat funny pic for some late night watching, this might be worth a viewing.The film does not have any big "names" in it, or actors that really have become big in the 12 years since it was made (as of 2007). Is this good or bad . . .well you don't wonder how the actors decided to so something so silly. Much of the female acting is pretty good. It is good enough that you don't see the jokes coming. The male acting is too silly and it predicts the jokes to their detriment.There are visual as well as story homage to some of the low budget sci-fi films of the 50's and 60's. This is good.The reviews and comments that pan the movie for not being serious enough don't seem to get that this is foremost comedy and satire and in fairness should be reviewed as such first.
This movie should be nominated for a new genre: Complete Mess! Except for a few chuckles and one or two scenes of gore, this movie is a complete waste of time. Calling it "Campy" doesn't even cut it. "Campy" implies fun which this movie was not. You spend the first half of the movie thinking "Its got to get better, right?". In fairness, it does, at the very end when its finally explained who the "brother/sister" team are and what they want but by then, you hardly care anymore because you've spend the entire second half of the movie wondering exactly what did Mr. Onorati & Ms. Pacula do to tick someone off THIS badly to be stuck in such a horrible movie.
I'm pretty surprised that so many people gave this one the highest rating."Not Like Us" is stupid and trashy,and there's not a great deal of gore!The acting is mediocre-Polish horror regular Joanna Pacula("The Kiss","Haunted Sea","Body Puzzle")is actually the best. The film is fun to watch if you have enough time to kill!5 out of 10-check it out,if you're bored.
This low-budget tale of a (small-scale) alien invasion is a curious mixture. The rural small-town setting is well-caught and much of the film has an innocent goofy charm. But this is undercut by the violent and ruthless nature of the aliens' behaviour as they prey on the hapless townspeople. Acting is reasonable with Joanna Pacula as a likeable heroine suffering marital problems and events build to a strikingly gruesome climax.
