Review of Extraterrestrial (2014) by Orlok W — 23 Oct 2014

C+.

Extraterrestrial is the Vicious Brothers newest horror film. Dropping their normal found footage style filming, they still had the shaky cam in use. The film follows five friends who reluctantly travel to a cabin in the middle of the woods(shocker) only to discover that an alien space ship crashed in close proximity of their cabin, and the aliens were very upset. The film has your stereotypical characters, the dumb blonde, the main lead brunette, ect. What the film gains a lot of points for though is that the filmmakers were not afraid to show the aliens and their space crafts. The use of the different colored lights in the sky and sound/visual effects were very well done. The characters all make dumb decisions but it's a horror film so you really can't expect much from that stand point. Overall, Extraterrestrial is a fun, though sometimes messy film that's worth at least a rental.
