About thirty seconds into the film you'll find yourself with your jaw dropped somewhere down to around about your knees as it opens with a sequence so hideously disgusting you can't quite believe you are really seeing what you are seeing. Comparisons will doubtless be made between this film and Shaun of the Dead and also Peter Jackson's Brain Dead / Bad Taste neither really took things to such a painfully funny - quite beyond belief - level that this film does. Whilst the film will always be remembered (rightfully so) for the combine harvester scene - which is truly hilarious - it is so much more than an individual collection of gross out sketches - it is a wonderfully silly but engrossing yarn that doesn't let you go from the very first moment to the last, with visual effects - both prosthetic and CGI that quite literally first rate. Watch it be amazed be offended be thankful that the British film industry has some balls in it yet
NOT! :) This is an English black comedy/parody movie that most resembles a combination of Signs, Alien vs Predator and Bad Taste set up in the Welsh country side. It's funny, gory and has a lot of references to other sci-fi horror movies including Evil Dead, StarGate, Night of the Living Dead and many others, but without being pushy about it. I mean, you will never see a Scary Movie type of scene when they recreate a portion of another movie in a stupid way and laugh about it.
Anyway, if you are a fan of "bad" horror movies and funny gory films like Bad Taste or Evil Dead, you will love this one. There are no known actors, they don't even have IMDb pictures, except one, Scott Joseph, who ironically wears an alien mask the whole movie :)

The title gives it all away, really. They're aliens. They're evil. With this in mind, should you really expect high art? Go into this with the right frame of mind and you'll thoroughly enjoy it. If you've seen Jake West's previous feature Razor Blade Smile, you'll enjoy this, although Evil Aliens is miles ahead in production value and acting.
I'm not going to discuss the plot beyond this: Aliens are abducting Welsh sheep farmers and performing exactly the sort of experiments you'd expect. Enter the gorgeous Emily Booth as the presenter of a dodgy satellite TV show on alien abductions. Add some inbred farmers, fantastically sadistic aliens, surprisingly good gore effects and a lot of laughs and you have Evil Aliens. A perfect after the pub movie, and a shot in the arm if you're sick of the oh-so-serious po-faced horror movies of today.
In a nutshell - Peter Jackson's successor is here - Evil Aliens has everything which made Braindead (DeadAlive) fantastic and more.

i thought this film was one of the best films i have seen in ages... it was great..and to be honest i don't like horrors or spooky films and certainly not alien films.. but i had to watch this as my sister is one of the main characters.. but surprisingly i found myself really enjoying it... evil aliens had me laughing.. it had me jumping out of my seat oh and it definitely had me squirming in my seat at all the blood and guts.. fabulous!!!. oh and my sister well she was fabulous.. and all the other actors were too... there was some great special effects in the film. which i thought was great considering they were on a low budget. but it just goes to show. as long as you have the right type of producer like Jake west you can do anything.....i am very proud of my lickle sister.. and all the other actors i thought did a great job too....this is a film not to be missed
Evil Aliens owes a huge debt to Peter Jacksons early films Bad Taste and Braindead.I must confess to never enjoying those films particularly and i say the same about this.Jake West is a director who clearly lacks inspiration of his own and chooses to steal from those whom he looks up to.I lost count of the amount of times a major Hollywood film was quoted most notably James Camerons Aliens.The amount of blood and gore on show here isn't funny either,the latter end of the film becomes tired and dragged out.Maybe it would have worked better as a short film.The actors a poor,the direction is weak and the plot is non existent.I can see what the director was trying to do,the homage he was trying to pay,but others have done the same thing a lot better than presented here. 4/10
