Looks like i got involved in going to a premiere last night.
Judging from the preview I had seen, I was expecting some kind of psychopathic killing machine flick, but it turns out this movie is all about ALIEN INVASION.
It's heaps funny to start out with, you get to know a little bit about the characters and their history together: 4 boys who are best of friends; Henry, Jonesy, Beaver and Ben ... I can't remember his name!!! When they were young, they save this young disabled kid called 'Duddit' from being tormented by the 'bullies', in return for their friendship Duddit gives them all a gift, to be telepathic, empathetic and to see a little into the future as well.
The story switches to when they are all 30-something making their yearly hunting trip out into the woods in a snowbound cabin. Whilst separated into 2 pairs, they each come across a lost wanderer. Jonesy and Beaver find a man, who is making the most horrible flatuations, they give him a bed and food and think nothing more of it ... and then all hell breaks loose.
Henry and Ben are involved in a car crash attempting to avoid the 2nd lost person - the woman who has the same symptoms as her friend the other guys came across. Only she has to stay outside in the snow with Ben while Henry goes for help.
Meanwhile there is a special ops group who have been chasing this alien invasion for 25 years arrive and quarantine the woods, hoping to go all "Independence Day" on their gooey asses. Which kind of works, but doesn't really, as the gooey leader is still on the loose!
Henry, being the only survivor, sets out to help one of the special ops team members track down the goo-man and save the world with the help of his special friend Duddits and his remarkable psychic gifts.
It was a long movie! Very gooey, gorey and oh so funny at times. I thought it was really crazy and out there!
If you liked Final Destination, Halloween type movies then this movie is for you. If you're a vegetarian - do NOT even contemplate it!!! |
