Sure it's ultra-low budget, but this movie has heart, because everyone involved seems to be having fun. Sort of a free form script "borrowed" from any number of sci-fi's out there, and with a title like "Inbred Redneck Alien Abduction", you cannot expect "Star Wars". What drives the movie is the obvious love and enthusiasm that went into producing this schlocky but lovable production. The creatures are comical, the rednecks are nicely stereotyped, and all of the acting is terrible. I say this, you go in expecting nothing, and I.R.A.A. just might surprise you. There are a few laugh out loud situations, not much nudity, and some comical violence. Oh yes, one more thing, turn your brain off for ninety minutes and never admit to anyone that you saw this movie. - MERK

Horrible home movie trying to be passed off as something viewable
D-Sligar1 December 2007
Ughh! I thought I'd give this movie a chance based upon the reviews I had read and I also wanted to give something else a try. OMG, this movie sucked so bad I couldn't bear it. Saying that it was better than Gigli (yet another unbearable flick) was a stretch at best. I don't even know where to begin with the utter crappiness of this movie...
Video: Home movies have been done much better Costumes/Props: Seen better at the local Halloween Haunted House. You can actually see the boom-mic in many scenes because the video guy is too close to the actors. Acting: Lacking in all aspects, pretty much kludged together from unsuspecting actors/actresses trying to make a break (too bad it probably crippled your career forever) Sound: It sounded like they simply used the built-in mic on the cheapo camera used to shoot the flick Story: Quite possibly the dumbest concept yet
This movie wasn't even fun to watch, even if you're drunk off your arse. The jokes aren't funny and are poorly executed... ughh, I could go on but I won't. Avoid this at all costs and spend your time with something more fun, like watching the clouds float by while standing in an ant hill; it's more fun and will hold your attention much longer.

Warning: Spoilers
This movie was sooo wrong on so many different levels that I laughed my butt off! The banjo playing just topped things off and I want the suit that Ikan Kikyeras was wearing in the beginning.
Of course, I LIKE B movies. I think I like them because the plots are so absurd you don't know what is going to happen next and they don't take themselves seriously. I thought they showed good use of duct tape! I think it would've been better had they modified a thong rather than a jock strap though. The special effects were not very good but this IS a B movie, not some high budget Hollywood movie. The plot line was delightfully convoluted and the acting was campy and over the top. Just how I like my b movies.
If you can't decide on a movie to watch and you find yourself even considering watching Gigli (that's ninety minutes of my life I'll never get back!), Jersey Girl (eww!), and some of the other junk that has come out lately step away and go rent this. The acting is better and it is a lot funnier!

Inbred Redneck Alien Abduction: Well this is awkward!
Platypuschow8 September 2017
With a title like this and a non-existent budget my expectations were flatlined and I simply watched it for the novelty value. Within moments I realised I'd laughed a tad too many times and was actually enjoying it.
Is it dumb? Absolutely. But is it old school slapstick silly fun? Damn straight it is.
Full of laugh out loud moments I had so much fun with IRAA that I'm almost ashamed to admit it.
It's childish, the sfx are awful and it's amateurishly made but it's written by people who know what they're doing and I'd love to see what they could do with a real budget.
Inbred Redneck Alien Abduction is a fantastic comedy full of slapstick, gross out humour and a couple of moments you'll be shocked have actually been put to screen.
It's about 2 secret agents who go into the deep south of USA to investigate UFO sightings and find themselves teaming up with the local rednecks to battle the threat.
So much fun, I'm just ashamed that the best movie I've seen in ages is called Inbred Redneck Alien Abduction! Goodjob!
The Good:
Some good slapstick fun
The Bad:
SFX are awful
Poor audio balancing
Things I Learnt From This Movie:
Special agent uniform often involves pvc
Even movies with a title like this can surprise you!

Awesome sci-fi, slapstick, gore, and more...

This movie cracked me up! Every scene in this movie made me laugh sometimes it was a slapstick laugh and sometimes it was an "oh my god, I can't believe they did that" laugh. Patrick Voss (Robot Monkey Lab, special effects guru) wrote with Adam Hackbarth and directed this hilarious parody of two X-file-like agents caught up in the alien abduction of a family of inbred rednecks. The special effects range from finely detailed to deliberately funny, but are all very well done and are the backbone of the entire movie showing the great talent of Patrick Voss and his crew. I guarantee you will have a great time watching this movie. I will warn you though that this movie has some really raunchy humor in it. Recommend highly!!!
Campy and VERY Over the Top
kevin-magurany14 December 2007
Once you realize that the cast and crew set out to make the worst movie possible you'll enjoy it a lot more. They obviously weren't taking anything too seriously. It's almost like the director kept saying, "Okay folks, lets try it again and this time lets try NOT to make it so believable." I like B-movies because they just tend to be a lot of fun to watch. Without the big budgets of the mindless dribble with the same rehashed plot lines over and over again that main-stream Hollywood tends to make all too often, case in point "Wild Hogs", the film makers have to think of more creative ways of telling their story. I.R.A.A. may not be for everyone, my wife couldn't watch it because it was too stupid, but then again she doesn't like movies like "Dumb & Dumber", "Old School", "Tommy Boy" or "Space Balls" either. She just regards them as Stupid movies and I.R.A.A. definitely falls into that category.
