Watched it to the end in the forlorn hope the story might redeem the film. It didn't. The acting was like a really bad high school production - not one of the participants had any acting ability. The diction was stilted & the script was simply appalling. The "actors" weren't believable. The story was just dire, completed nonsense. People randomly dying "of natural causes" for no reason. Any nod to "Straw Dogs" was just an insult. I watched this on Prime because it was heralded as of the X Files stable. Run time of 1:42:44. Don't waste 1:42:44 of your life like I did. This isn't worthy of any stars.
I'm willing to give most films a chance. I've sat through some real duds from beginning to end with no complaints just so I can talk about them with a bit of authority in these reviews. I see it as the only fair way to really judge a film. This time I just couldn't do it. I tried my best but I just couldn't manage it.
It was the acting, it was appalling. The badly written dialogue was delivered with all the liveliness of a dead fish. I'm sure they're all very lovely people and I wish them all the very best for their futures but, for God's sake, please don't become actors. Work in film, if you must, but stay behind the cameras.
Not worth your time.

Wow... just wow! Could acting genuinely be worse that this. It's just awful! I'm pretty certain everyone just read their dialogue rather than learn it, and as a result there was just no space for emotion, changing the pitch of the voice, facial expressions - just nothing!
The filming and editing are actually not bad (no worse than anything on TV) it's just the acting - it's so awful. Please tell me the cast have been put on a watchlist as a safety measure for society.
The story has all the originality, and whilst I won't give spoilers, I do feel a community service is being delivered if I stop you wasting your on this very predictable and mediocre garbage!

Go to any primary school, literally any one you like, and watch their Nativity play and I promise you will have seen better acting than at any point is this absolute garbage atrocity. Some of the blame certainly goes to the ridiculously poor writing, but the delivery of lines is the worst I have ever seen in any movie in my life.
As for the plot, well there is one I guess so that's something. People go missing, people investigate, and nonsense ensues. Plus something about aliens.
The fact that this was advertised as along the lines of X-files and Da Vinci Code is beyond a complete joke. Avoid!

I really wanted to like this film as I am a big supporter of British movies, regardless of how large or small the budget may be. However this film was really disappointing.
The premise was good and the script was okay but the acting was absolutely dire, the characters were under-developed and the general quality of production was very poor. To be honest, it felt like watching a student film.
The one saving grace was the filmography and there were some beautiful shots taken on location.
In conclusion, the film was very amateurish and unfortunately not near good enough to be offered on general release.
