About

You might enjoy this if you like low-budget alien invasion B-movies such as Battlefield Earth or Cosmic Sin and can laugh with messy sci-fi spectacle; Not for you if you want polished effects, strong acting, or a serious story.

Pros: nonstop alien attack setup; giant walker action; campy so-bad-it's-funny vibe | Cons: weak plot; poor acting; rough effects and dialogue
