Review of Alien Apocalypse (2005) by Betsy H — 17 Nov 2007

Part of a Bruce Campbell Double-Pack DVD alongside 'Man With The Screaming Brain', Alien Apocalypse could have been a lot worse. Returning to Earth after a 40-yr cryogenic sleep in sleep, four astronauts find Earth in a very primitive condition where those born during the apocalypse know nothing about Earth.

Doctors. TV. Bowling. Everything is new to them. The new rulers are an alien termite-like race who have forced the survivors of mankind into slavery at sawmills worldwide as wood is a delicacy...next to human heads! Captured, the astronauts decide to form a breakout plan in order to locate the may-be-alive-may-be-dead President who is said to be building a rebel army, to which all the slaves hopes are pinned.

This is a low-budget sci-fi but has a few decapitations and green-blood spewing corpses for good measure. Enjoyable film and has a great one-liner by Bruce throughout it - was expecting a really bad film but was definetely fun to watch.
