    The joy of a non-commercial sci-fi thriller

    This movie was the pet project of the now defunct Ironwood Studios, a recording house in Seattle. I chatted with the makers of the film and they told me that there was never any commercial intent in making the film, it was just a fun side project and everybody had a great time making it. I somehow stumbled across a vanity-pressed VHS of it at a record shop, and for an entirely amateur, shot-on-video movie it's actually really polished and watchable. The plot concerns a two sound engineers (employees playing themselves) who go on a camping trip in the mountains to record wildlife sounds in the night. They unwittingly pick up strange noises from an alien life form, and their sensitive data gets the attention of government brass, setting off a chase across the greater Seattle area. Let's keep supporting these amateur productions, they make life better for fans of homegrown films!
