When I took a look at where this movie, if you can actually call it that, was made. The first thing that popped in my head was a salsa commercial telling you where some off brand name salsa was made - "New York City?!" Yeah .. it was made in .. a little eye popping here .. Metuchen New Jersey?! Okay .. that explains a lot all by itself.
I actually was kinda torn between giving it a 2 or a 7. I finally decided against the 7 since it just wasn't quite up MST 3000 standards. Almost but not quite. Alright, it wasn't even close. Never mind. Two.
On the other hand I think this is about the cheesiest rip-off movie I've ever had the pleasure/displeasure of watching. Re:Aliens. Honestly, can you really say a guy wearing a hoody and Carhart coveralls is a monster? Well, maybe ... hmm .. no .. no you can't .. not in a sci-fi movie. Sorry. Okay, okay, so James Arness pretty well pulled it off in The Thing from Another World. Must've been better Carharts back then. And cooler hoodies.
If you like pure cheese though, the limburg variety, then definitely you don't want to pass this up. Just don't forget to bring some crackers.

A spoof on early alien/spaceship sci-fi. Unfortunately, the intentionally retro creature FX and visuals seem to have turned some people off.
Nonetheless, it has a good story and if you can handle the intellectual challenge of comedy mixed with science fiction, you should enjoy it. If your part of the 50s generation, you may end up taking it too personally. If you're young and used to 3D game FX, it may go completely over your head for the lack visual realism you take for granted.
If there's a defect, it's that it's a little slow getting started and there are some leaps in the story line that don't fit into the retro-space-alien plot. But the intelligent space-alien-mocking and acting make up for it enough to be worth watching.
