Escape from Area 51

I think that a film like this, before starting it, the director and the production intend to make it disastrous. The actors are disarmingly rigid, the plot horrendous. I think this film would deserve zero as another very similar one for its sci-fi plot and acting achievements: Moontrap Target Earth.

Seriously, the film is garbage, both for the technical elements and the plot that's thinner then a mimes favorite wall. Camera work is rough as heck, looking like it was shot on multiple different camcorders, sound is 'on camera' at best, and distorted often (yet, the dialog is still clearer to the ear then a Nolan film,...) and the lighting is tragically bad. It looks like it was shot 'in the park down the road', rather then out on location,. The studio sets look to have been ripped out of the dumpster of other z grade films. And the insert segments, show how bad CG Animation can be. But all through it, you can tell the cast are having a laugh while making it, knowing full well it's a brimmed crapbowl of badness. Watch it with pizza, popcorn, weed and a beer, disregard the crappiness and you'll have a laugh at it too.

Sheera (Donna D'Errico) is an alien who escapes from Area 51 who looks like a Playboy Bunny trapped in a prison with a tanning booth. She is helped by humans against the evil Sklaar (Chris Browning) to save the universe. The film is a science fiction spoof. Some scenes are specific like the Dance -off at the end while others are more generic. The problem comes when they can't figure out what to spoof and get serious which doesn't work at all. And considering the spoof is only so-so to begin with, the feature doesn't make it. Guide: F-word. No sex. Brief nudity.

I really don't understand the one star reviews here.. did people watch this with ZERO knowledge about it other then the name? Cheesiness, bad acting and "lame" special effects are not a reason to rate a movie like this low, it should be expected. I mean if you just look at the poster it screams all of those things. Its a sci fi spoof with a budget probably less then a minimum wage workers vacation fund. Im not gonna go watch a slasher film and then proceed to give one star because there was a lot of blood.. C'mon people.

If you are looking for a serious sci-fi movie, this ain't it. But you can kind tell from the poster, can't you? So, take a chill pill, smoke a blunt, pop a beer and realize that even great movies are now getting trash reviews. If you think you can make a better movie then go right ahead and make one and not just writing hack reviews because you are triggered by still living in your mom's basement, lol.

I'd have given this 2 stars as if very drunk or 14 years old, you might enjoy it in a "so bad it's good" way but I knocked a star off for being so sexist. No, not the scanty costumes, the way every male character in this show is either evil, stupid, or both. And every female character is super-competent and good. Oh, and lines about "on every planet, it is the women who step forward to sacrifice themselves". Must be news to all the dead allied soldiers littering the battlefields of WWII. Anyway, gross misandry aside, I would love, love, love to know how this film got made. I mean, the guy playing the main baddy is actually someone I recognize from mainstream films. He's a decent actor. So what's going on here? Did he do it as a favour to a niece or something? Sexual favours? I reckon the budget for this thing is around $2000 (feeding twenty people for the two days they must have spent filming this adds up). I particularly like how every time the main villain stops to communicate with his ship on his wanderings, it's the SAME tree stump he is sitting on. No really, anyone who knows how this got made please reply - did someone promise their daughter they could be in a movie? Was it someone's highschool project? Or just the director's way of meeting some attractive women and getting them to walk around in tight outfits? Still, it will probably make a profit if even one person buys the DVD.
