Alien Sex Party

Coming from a long time video store clerk, I find this movie to be a little bit better than Clerks. I say this because it only focused on the very funny aspects and odd situations that only happen in video stores. Finally, I would would to just say that Moby was an incredible sport in getting this movie out to the public.

Not funny, not shocking, not much of anything. The movie strives for that slapped-together indie vibe and overshoots the mark, much to its detriment. My problems? The characters are one-dimensional and unfunny; they're all made to be so "wacky" (but not funny) that it becomes tiresome almost immediately, especially the boss. The music reminds me of the kind of songs you make up spontaneously while performing some task ("I'm taking the garbage out/Go garbage go/No more will you stink up my house/No garbage no"). The story is nonexistent.

On top of all this, the "Let's teach a lesson" vibe of the sex talk fails to amuse or educate. Nothing these people is saying is anything you couldn't read in a issue of some random supermarket magazine anyway, so what's the point? Do they think they'll be scandalizing the squares with "shocking frankness"? The acting is so wooden that it's a serious possibility that the filmmakers were parodying real pons, with their stilted dialog, but realization of that doesn't make the film any easier to swallow.

The whole thing has the feeling of a home video made by a bunch of freshmen in an afternoon, but since it's a Moby project, you get to see it on the shelves of your local store & pay a few bucks for the privilege to see it. I suppose if you're a rabid Moby fan, it's a worthwhile view, in the same way that you'd get a kick out of checking out his vacation photos. But for anyone else, you may as well just get a bunch of friends together, get silly and start filming each other - you'll have a lot more fun & end up with an equivalent product anyway.

I LOVE this film. I bought it about a year ago without knowing anything about it, and I fell in love.. one of the best Christmas movies ever! heh. I'm so surprised more people don't know about it, maybe it was due to the title change.. I dunno. The Clerks homage was great, I just can't say enough good things about this. Obviously it's not Oscar worthy but it's a lot of fun. OK, I need more lines in this.. blah blah, la de da. I want to wish you a merry Christmas! I want to wish you a merry Christmas! I want to wish you a merry Christmas, from the bottom, of my hearrrrt!I want to wish you a merry Christmas! I want to wish you a merry Christmas, from the bottom, of my hearrrrt!

I saw this together with two buddies. One of them is a big Moby fan and bought this blind because moby was affected to it, we watched it and man, did we laugh.

I didn't expect much, since i saw the rating it gets here, but oh how wrong i was. This movie is good, bad and so bad that it's good. Everything i can say has been said before. So, if you like smart references to other movies, stupid humor, insane dialog and a surprisingly good soundtrack (hey! Moby! :)) check this out! (beer and a couple of friends is recommended for full viewing pleasure :D)

What i admired the most is the fact that Moby doesn't give a crap about what anybody thinks and just does what he likes to do. (eg. making a movie that gets a 1.7 rating at this website :))

Fun, Good Nature Christmas Movie

Entertaining, goofy, funny, caring and loving with a positive message. The best version of Feliz Navidad/I wanna wish you a Merry Christmas EVER! This is a must when you're tired of the insane Norman Rockwell like impressions of Christmas that never existed, this is not your typical White Christmas of past but even with aliens this is more real and what Christmas is all about!
