Carolina's Calling

Not only is everything correct in the previous review - but to further enhance details of the plot - the actual script writing and dialogue is so mundane and tedious I remain baffled as to why anyone would want to actually film it or indeed think of acting in it. I have seen more convincing Kindergarten Nativity stuff. Just awful.

There are a ton of well made, low budget films out there. Believe me. But this isn't one of them And that's no excuse whatsoever. Just because you have limited funds, doesn't mean you can't have a decent script. The writing in this film was absolutely atrocious. It seemed like it was written by a 12-year old.

It certainly didn't help that the acting was terrible as well. And I know exactly why there were several people posting about what a great movie it was. Can you say "Friends and Family?" That's exactly who gave this little stinker such high marks. Then they had the audacity to make fun of anyone who didn't agree with them. Oh well. If you looking to was a couple hours you'll never get back, watch this pointless "film".

So three shady scientists fire up a blue box of energy, which will make all other forms of energy obsolete, and they don't even put on safety goggles. Stars antonio sabato as marty haas. Something or someone is calling marty to the east coast, but he's not sure why. We spend a lot of time on that idea, which they borrowed from close encounters. The script needs major work and most of the acting is less than stellar. I wondered if it was aimed at a younger crowd, but there is swearing, violence, even talk of bull genitals, so i guess it's not meant for kids! Later on, we revisit the energy invention; apparently, the explosion from the energy box knocked an alien's space ship out of the sky, right into the carolinas. An hour in, we have a plot! Marty agrees to help the alien. No details needed, we'll just get a welder and do it. So silly. I made it through to the end, but it took a lot of effort. Directed by michael saquella.

The last two negative reviews seem a little over the top!!

Obviously Carolina's Calling is a lower budget, Indie film, nothing more, nothing less. With that in mind, it's a cute enough film, you'll get a few laughs!!

Charade over the issue , are there aliens in space? Its made on a buck, with very low quality special effects, its actors are b-grade semi pro local actors that returns now and then in low budget ''feature'' length flicks, so im familiar with the faces, except for ''bob'', the alien, with a head of a watermellon and 5 instead of 3 fingers...

its a scifi comedy that may entertain because of its silly storyline and plot, its slow and filled with props stolen from a wrekced submarine or any military radio shack, so lets just say its weird science and stop there, cause the grumpy old man gives a 5 for the try, it aint boring, and filled with love and emotions at homestandard level. Its a couldbeseen movie if everything else flops...
