I have probably seen that around 20 times, love it to bits.



The main problem with this film is that I couldn't give a **** about any of the main characters and whether they survived or not. The aliens were terrible too. Worth a watch and a few funny lines but it was a let down.


Films have a three act structure and this is the very definition of that and it suffers because of it. First act is domestic drama, second act is brutal action as the hitmen are at work (the hammer scene in the kitchen is gut wrenching) and the third act.... well I won't give anything away but the film goes off on a truly bizarre way.

The acting and direction is damn good and it is a very well made low budget film but I can't see myself watching this one again.
