FirstWitch A movie that not only functions as a solid scarefest but a razor-sharp satire.

Arianna Moses Let me be very fair here, this is not the best movie in my opinion. But, this movie is fun, it has purpose and is very enjoyable to watch.

wayne_e_day The aliens in this film are not realistic. They're not supposed to be.If you're watching this film because someone told you there would be Oscar-winning special effects, well, you'd been had. This is a B-movie, and Bruce Campbell is a B-movie actor.OK? I watch this film because it's campy and B-movieish and fun. it's a GREAT Bruce Campbell film and worth it just for the severed alien heads flying across the screen, and for Bruce looking at green alien blood on his space suit and saying something like, "Well this isn't coming out."You want classic acting? Look for Sir Laurence Oliver or whatever his name is. This is a FUN movie.

cynalwes In recent months, I've discovered the enjoyment of tuning in to dreadful Sci Fi Channel movies while folding laundry or doing other household chores. Lately I've indulged in such gems as "Frankenfish" and "Mansquito." This movie was, unexpectedly, a creature of a different color. "Alien Apocalypse" is completely aware that it's over the top. It reveals its intelligence in such scenes as Bruce Campbell's hilarious defense/explanation of becoming a Doctor of Osteopathy, as well as in its winking references to "The Wizard of Oz" and "Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid." The dreadfully unconvincing wigs/beards, the resolute marching single-file across the landscape in quest of The President, the Raquel Welchesque outfit worn by one female character, the fact that there appear to be fewer than two dozen (pretty fragile, as it turns out!) Giant Termite Aliens...are all part of the joke.And, at the risk of giving too much weight to this light-weight effort, I thought it provided a bit of commentary about those who collaborate with occupying forces.

lordzedd-3 Okay, I was exited to hear Renée O'Connor was in this. I've been a big fan of hers since Xena. But I got to admit I was kind of disappointed with how the movie came out and the direction her character went. Like SARAH MICHELLE GELLER, I really can't see Renée O'Connor as the "damsel in distress" type character. Since I know she can kick ass and take names. Bruce was kind of wooden in his performance as well. No pun intended considering alien termites. But this movie does have a lot going to for it, it has great effects, a great cast. The story is scary possible and the acting was good for the most part. But poor Renée's character don't even have a last name, it's just Kelly. Even the guy who gets his head bit off early in the flick has a last name. If you are a fan of Renée O'Connor, then you might want to pass, but if you are Bruce Campbell fan, then check out this flick. 7 OUT OF 10 STARS.

BA_Harrison 'Tis true that this one has Grade-Z effects, a dreadful script, and some of the worst acting imaginable, but I kind of suspect that the makers knew this, and a great deal of the cheesiness was intentional. If you love shockingly bad sci-fi movies, then there is a whole heap to enjoy about Alien Apocalypse. It's not a 'great' movie (and I'm not about to give it a ridiculously high rating), but it is a fun film that should ideally be enjoyed with like-minded friends (and plenty of alcohol).An astronaut/doctor, Ivan Hood (Bruce Campbell), returns to Earth after 40 years in suspended animation, to find that the planet has been overrun by insectoid aliens who are stripping the planet of its wood (which they eat). Together with fellow astronaut, Kelly (Renée O'Connor), and a small group of plucky slaves, he leads a revolt against the alien invaders.With dreadful support from a multitude of badly bewigged Eastern Europeans (and a leggy babe in a fur bikini), Campbell mugs his way through the lousy script with his usual aplomb. The special effects are rather poor, with the aliens being a mixture of animatronics and rather cheap looking CGI. However, there is a smatter of well conceived gore to compensate a little: the bugs chew off the heads of troublemakers and devour the severed fingers of those who attempt to escape. There are also several juicy shots of the aliens being killed, with green goop squirting from the wounds.Unpretentious, very silly and worth a go if trash sci-fi is your thang!
