CheerupSilver Very Cool!!!
WasAnnon Slow pace in the most part of the movie.
GurlyIamBeach Instant Favorite.
ThedevilChoose When a movie has you begging for it to end not even half way through it's pure crap. We've all seen this movie and this characters millions of times, nothing new in it. Don't waste your time.
Woodyanders A group of misfit high school kids and an alien abductee work together to thwart an army of slime-spewing extraterrestrial brain monsters who want to kidnap none other than Elvis Presley (an extremely personable portrayal by Brandon Luis Aponte, who nails the King's mannerisms and charisma despite the fact that he doesn't look a bit like the Big E!). Director Richard Griffin, who also co-wrote the fluffy, yet witty script with Guy Benoit, relates the enjoyable lightweight story at a zippy pace, maintains an amiable tongue-in-cheek tone throughout, pays affectionate gently mocking homage to schlocky 50's sci-fi fare (the lovably hokey not so special effects in particular are an absolute riot!), and offers a warm evocation of the 1950's period setting. Moreover, it's acted with tremendous zest by an appealing and enthusiastic cast, with especially stand-out contributions by Sarah Nicklin as the sweet'n'spunky Betty, David Lavallee Jr. as the nerdy Sherman, Michael Reed as mean greaser bully Lucas, Daniel Lee White as the dippy Kevin, Ruth Sullivan as the sultry Siobahn, Alexandra Cipolla as the ditsy Raven, Alexander Lewis as the pompous Blondie, Rich Tretheway as the hearty, but short-tempered O'Brien, and David Erin Wilson as the gung-ho General Bedfellow. In addition, this film has a real affable charm and good-natured vibe to it that's impossible to either resist or dislike. Jacob Larimore's vibrant color cinematography makes nifty use of wipes. Daniel Griffith's robust score hits the rousing cornball spot. An immensely fun and pleasant romp.
JoeB131 I think we just had a case when people involved in the film opened IMDb accounts just to say nice stuff about it.Okay, the film is supposed to be a "homage" to those 1950's Sci-Fi movies, with the characters mocking things we used to have in the 1950's, like a Middle Class. And Elvis.I think this film was done by film students, and they had to give everyone in the class a role.So the plot is that these aliens come down to earth wanting to kidnap Elvis Presley. And they get the absolute worst Elvis impersonator they could possibly find.They put a lot of gags in this film that just weren't funny. The only thing that was close was the aliens explaining to the 1950's folks that they developed a form of Facebook, and use it for mundane purposes that we use it for today instead of something beneficial. That was as close to funny as this film got by design.
Izlahainia I like Richard Griffin's movies. But this is not a good one. The only thing that made the movie watchable was a very strong indie cast. I think the writing was good. But I have a feeling the actors were left out to dry by the director.Michael Reed , Sarah Nicklin, & Brandon Aponte really stand out for actors. The effects were pretty solid for a low budget movie. The monsters were really pretty cool.Griffin's best is Exhumed of Nun of That. His worst may be this one or The creature from the Hillbilly Lagoon. It's a shame because I really wanted to like this movie.
tcoll32 First off I must say that I am somewhat bias to this type of film. I grew up watching the old Creature Double Feature on Channel 56 outside of Boston for all of my young life. This was a horror/monster/scifi double headers every Saturday. This film could proudly take it's place with any of the classic scifi/monster film of the 1950s. The film is set in the fictional town of New Shoreham in New England (most likely Rhode Island since that is where the film maker lives as does a lot of the cast). The kids are all excited about the imminent arrival of that hot new rock and roll sound sung by Elvis Presley. A group of aliens arrive to kidnap Elvis and cover a good proportion of the town in blue goo that turns the unlucky recipient into one of them, a walking brain that apparently isn't too intelligent (they have trouble with locked doors). The fate of the town and the fate of rock and roll are left to a group of misfits and the over-achieving Betty (she is trying to get into Radcliffe). Who will win in this battle? Well I won't say because that would spoil it for you. If you have the time and luck to be near one of the screenings of the film go to it. It is a laugh out loud fun filled romp that has no gore, nudity, or foul language, just like the films that is paying homage to.
