Alien Opponent



Terrible Awful fun
This is a bad movie and doesn't pretend to be anything else. Think Attack of the Killer Tomatoes meets Shawn of the Dead. It is hysterical. If you want an Academy movie this isn't your schtick HOWEVER, if you want a blast of funny with aliens, rednecks, and ditzy blonds thrown in you will love this. If MST3K were still around it would be a strong candidate.

welcome to a junkyard killing zone...
Alien Opponent (2010) is a science fiction "slaughter comedy", where a profit minded group of alien hunters, are dispatched in a variety of ways, while attempting to claim a cash reward. The kills are probably the high points, as story is as solid as Jell-o, and characters are a strange bunch, with few who are likeable. The special effects aren't spectacular, but used judiciously, are generally effective, and mildly humorous.

Meghan Mazurski (Ashley Bates), a hot young blonde, is caught with her lover Bradan (Cuyle Carvin), by her husband Tom (Kevin Shea). When the old buzzard gets violent, Meghan's mom (Hilma Falkowski) slams a hammer into his skull, making her daughter a widow.

Events take place on rural junkyard, where an alien craft has apparently just crashed landed. Seeking to cover up the crime and inherit Mazurski's estate, the trio concocts a story that Meghan's hubby has been killed by an alien, and go on TV to offer a $100,000 reward, to anyone who...

Also known as Alien Infiltration.
Plenty of good humour with action to go with it. If you've ever liked Tremors, Evil Dead, Tropic Thunder, Expendables, Shaun Of The Dead, Piranha 3DD, Scary Movie then you'll like this. Great acting. Good fight scenes. The women are hot. Nice soundtrack. Funny quotes throughout the film. I've got my copy which will be listed soon. Mrkish2013
