Rabh17 The sad thing is, the special effects are pretty good. For one-- I like especially like the beam weapons-- they make the air sizzle when they pass through-- which makes sense energetically speaking.And the Aliens being distinguished by White eyebrows. . . a nice low budget FX trick to make a distinction between US and THEM. I'll even forgive the aliens being stiffer than triple plywood.The Premise, though, isn't psychologically workable -- I mean, our gov'ts would willfully just collaborate to round up Hundred or thousands to MILLIONS of their own people to be drained of their blood and lives? Maybe this was an attempt on the writer's part to explore the whole Nazi-Collaboration angle, but it doesn't click.And last-- the putative hero here-- is absolutely NO hero. In fact, this man, in the face of the possible extinction of the Human race, has ONE mantra: Save my Daughter. Save my Daughter. I don't care how many other people die, but Save my Daughter. . .and while we're still at it Save my Daughter. . .And when we've Saved my Daughter, I'm outta here.Jeez, I mean, the viewer has to ask himself: "Um, why am I watching this, 'cause the hero is a selfish, self-centered douchebag." The Moral Message is clear: If this guy's daughter was not being culled, he wouldn't give a hoot. Usually, these monster/alien movies generally make Scientists out to be less than well-rounded-- but this guy would make Dr. Evil spit in disgust.So because of this totally cardboard, selfish, unlovable, and emotionally UNsympathetic nimrod is the FOCUS of this movie-- the viewer loses touch with the growing moral quandaries nagging the young alien overlord, or the sacrifices of the Resistance, or the unease of the Human Military being forced to collaborate in the mass culling of their own people.Wasted effort. Wasted Script. Wasted Carl Weathers. Wasted FX. Just wasted. . .aghhh! If you've nothing better to do before you turn in for the night, watch this-- and have your finger ready on the Fast Forward Button, especially when they start talking in one place.Trust me, you won't miss much.

moorek I started out wanting to like this. The opening moved so fast setting the scene for the storyline that I thought it might be good. Brad Johnson is the king of bad made-for-TV movies so that was okay as well. And the movie started out well with dad rescuing daughter but from the flat tire onward...downhill. I normally like to explain why I don't like a movie. I think you only need to think of any old used movie element you've seen before and it's here but done poorly. * the husband who's lost his wife and his daughter is everything * The female who appears to fall in love with the male lead after 48 hours * the guy stabbed and fairly certain dead only to turn up alive but wounded but still healthy enough to have his monologue * the bad guy who turns good at the end and all previous bad things are forgotten * trained soldiers standing out in the open firing thus being picked off when they should be at least lying down * the bad guys dropped off so far from the building that they have to run over open ground for them to be shotIf these aliens who couldn't hit the broad side of a barn, beat humans at war then there was something seriously wrong with the humans at the time.So an inkling of an interesting plot but poor acting, poor effects, poor script. You know it's bad when the TV series "V" did it all 20+ years before and much better. You know it's bad when Michael Ironside in "V" was a much better actor than anyone in this.

auteurus 'Alien Siege' is more Sci Fi channel dreck, churned out by the UFO film company in Eastern Europe. I have to wonder why I actually bother anymore with these no budget cable movies that Sci Fi channel seems to put out every month. They show zero creativity, poor acting and the hokey computer graphics and stock 3D models just add insult to injury. The plot of Alien Siege is entirely derivative of alien invasion films like 'V' and 'Earth - Final Conflict' and brings nothing new to the genre. The only part worth watching is the trailer, which packs more thrills than the actual movie.Maybe next time Sci Fi could give the quarter million dollar budget to some independent director to make a low budget science fiction movie with some original ideas, rather than waste it on yet another Saturday night disappointment like this one. The existence of a great low budget SF movie like 'Primer' is a perfect demonstration of why 'Alien Blood' is truly a cultural invasion, with or without aliens.

David My wife and I started to watch this film the other night with the intention of just seeing 10 minutes or so before we went to bed, but ended up watching it all. My wife is definitely not a sci-fi fan (unlike me) but she still enjoyed this.Yes, the effects are awful (the original series of Star Trek had better) and I would agree with others on how bad some of the acting was (funnily enough you could tell who the evil guys were by how bad their acting was, although even the good guys weren't that much better). However, it was definitely watchable and dare I say it, even mildly enjoyable.In summary, the kind of film that is worth watching if it happens to be on air and nothing else worth watching is on, but not worth actively seeking out.
