The Alien wannabe monsters in this feeding frenzy splatterfest look quite preposterous, which cannot be disguised by Gulager's jittery staging. And the knowing winks at the audience while genre conventions are joyfully turned upside down are as far removed from intelligent parody as the generally hammy performances are from award-worthy acting.
Still, despite all its shortcomings, the pic is fun in a demented sort of way, and highly preferable to the grim and glossy torture porn that "Saw" and its ilk revel in. This is just "innocent" tasteless guts'n'gore.
What distinguishes it from the few really good examples of its kind - like Peter Jackson's "Brain Dead" - is its unfortunate lack of wit.
Loved the shagging, sex-craving monster attitude, though.
