I went to see this last night. I found it to be hilarious and recommend it to anyone who likes classic sci-fi movies. A bit campy but in a fun way. Anyone else seen this yet?

I'm avoiding this like trick-or-treaters skipping Gary Glitter's house.

... Film looks awful. Is it a studio-dump, too (made a few years ago, shelved, put out during a dead-spot on the release-schedule in effort to recoup something, however small)?

I haven't seen the movie or anything, but I didn't know if you had seen that.

I love the campy horror flicks. I gave it a 6.5 out of 10...i think a real campy flick comes naturally, and this one seems a bit like they tried too hard. it was enjoyable though.

so i'm confused as to where this lies on the spectrum of crappy horror movies. the previews made me think cabin fever, pitch black, anaconda, etc., but apparently it's somehow much, much better. why?

Well, it's out here in Australia. I saw it at the video rental when i went to get some dvds. But I didn't get it because it didn't look too good .. from where I was standing.

The plot is on the same level as those but the dialog is full of little one liner, throwaway bits that are really funny and kind of cleverly mock the genre. It's not really much of a horror movie, it's never really scary.

that's good, since the girl is still waiting for radioactive mutants to start climbing through our windows.
