"[A] respectful homage to mid-20th-century B movies....[With a] bright, saturated, anti-CGI look..." -- Grade: B+
Box Office - 04/03/2009 3 stars out of 5 -- "[A] highly entertaining retro Sci-fi blast from the past that is loads of fun, an endearing tribute to all those bad movies we just loved....[The actors'] sweet, believable approach to the stilted dialogue is just right and natural enough to keep us involved."

Product Description:
Beware, earthlings. From The X Files' R.W. Goodwin comes a new cult classic in the tradition of The Blob and It Came from Outer Space. It's 1957, a spaceship has just landed in a quiet small town, and Earth is threatened by an unknown evil. But fear not, hope also has arrived. Will & Grace's Eric McCormack stars as an astronomer possessed by an alien bent on saving our humble planet. Yet even with the help of a diner waitress, is he any match for the Ghota, a rogue alien on a murderous rampage'
