    The Cover Art is pretty much the best part of this movie.

    If you've read any of the other reviews there's no need to go into a discussion of plot.

    I've seen better acting on community theater stages.

    There's no T&A. The best body is that of Bryan Brewer and though our female lead notices when he takes his shirt off to use as a tourniquet, they never even kiss. Which leads one to wonder what else we don't know about his time in prison.

    There are more holes in this story than a block of swiss cheese - which would be a lot more satisfying.

    The credit show that this epic was edited on a Mac. Well I won't judge the capabilities of editing on a Mac by this. (Although the house fire was more than lame)

    I gave it 3 stars because it wasn't so horrible I couldn't watch it all the way to the end. But if I had known how badly the end was written I'd have stopped before the flashback.

    Unless you just want to see Bryan Brewer with his shirt off (briefly), find another movie to watch.

    Whoa..Shiver (1975) gone wrong....

    I do not want repeat the same as the other before, but this movies is as bad as a movie can get. I still have no clue, how some movies get even the green light,to be made. This movie is less than a B movie, is an absolute insult to the entire cinema industry.

    The acting is appalling, the lines are just lame and short, there is not really a real dialogue, rather exclamations, people sounds artificial and raw, i wonder did any of these actors ever put their feet inside an acting school?? I would really recommend you don't bother when seeing the title of this movie, cuz you will feel cheated if you watch it, what the heck was that? What they were thinking? I do not even go to the "special" effects or make up, cuz there is nothing worth saying..The other reviewers spot on.

    If there was a rating marked 0 it would still be a high number for such crap. I am just gutted. It just reminded me Shiver (1975) with Barbara Steele gone incredibly wrong....

    Eh, it was free...

    A lot of people have been focused on how terrible this movie is, but there are some bright points. First of all, it's a silly fun plot - just the kind of alien invasion movie you'd expect from no one you'd ever heard of's neighbors who they've never heard of. The acting is terrible, of course, but it's terrible like an old show on the CW, not like a B movie from the 60s. And the CGI is fun terrible. There's a shot at the end where there is fire... that is NOT fire. It's funny, silly background fun and it's on Netflix, so while I wouldn't sing its praises, I would give it props for being exactly what you'd expect it to be.

    I picked it up for 10p on DVD

    It was certainly (or just about) worth every penny, lol.

    The Invasion Begins? Please don't tell me they're planning on making more of this garbage.

    I honestly can't believe that this managed to get released at all, straight to DVD or otherwise. I think that they spent the entire budget on the cover art for the movie, which could easily fool you into wasting 95 minutes of your life that you can never have back, as it did to me.

    There acting is sub-par, the makeup is horrendous, there are huge holes and incongruencies in the story, the character interaction is not believable, strained, and at times nonsensical, and the dialogue is badly written and badly delivered. The real icing on the cake are the effects. I think that I could have done better with a couple of hours and some kind of freeware program.

    Watcher beware. If you are a fan of really, really terrible movies, still watch with extreme caution. Everyone else avoid at all costs. F's all around.
