Alien invasion movies are an acquired taste now. Before CGI and massive special effects took over, films like Invasion of the Body Snatchers and John Carpenter’s They Live were effective because they told a story that showed the emotional impact of an extraterrestrial breach in our society. Even big budget movies like War of the Worlds and Independence Day have a soul beyond that of the massive explosions caused by the powerful alien weaponry. It’s too bad that lately, with November’s sci-fi bomb Skyline and now Battle: Los Angeles in theaters, alien invasion flicks are becoming incredibly watered down and demonstrate a horrible way to blow an expensive budget.
With the new The Crow remake coming soon, we take a look back at the 30-year-old cult classic original–and where the stars are now.
Kaam Chalu Hai Review: Based on true events, this movie is thought-provoking and inspiring
Rebel Moon Part 2 Review: This movie doesn't feel anything new or worth remembering, which is a shame.
No way this movie can be 2.5/10, 6/10 maybe but not 2.5
