Jeff W I give this movie a 4, if only because there was one spot that made me jump out of my jammies, and that usually gives any movie I rate 3 stars or so. They get another star for doing this movie in one continual shot, unlike other 'cam' movies. Not sure what to say about the acting. Amazing though that at no point did they break out into uncontrollable laughter. In a way, this looks like it could have been a high school or college project. There are some inconsistencies that didn't make a lot of sense, for example, cell phones not working (c'mon Verizon!) yet two-way voice/video between police vehicle and police station functioning, to some extent anyway. And, I do have to ask, but why do people always get 'invaded' or 'infested' through the ear? I think Star Trek did that, one time is enough. Not sure what to make of the 'ghosting' parts. That part is never explained. (actually, nothing is explained) Also, does rural California look like that? It looks like something you'd see in the Great Lakes area, it reminded me of the sorta crappy roads you get in Ontario when you're by Lake Huron. Word has it that if you watch the 15 minutes of credits (really, 15 minutes!) you get no additional information. Anyway, the only recommendation I can make to the producers of this movie, if they're reading this review, when doing a dash-cam movie, mount the cam a little higher. I really don't need to see the hood of the police vehicle for an hour. Also, what cop wears jeans while on duty? They do sell blue or black work pants at Wal-Mart. I'm not a movie producer, so I won't critique anything else. But, just saying, the girl gets a real nice prom dress..surely $30 pants from Wal-Mart or Marks Work Warehouse wouldn't have broken the bank.

Golgo-13 A film for all those who say The Blair Witch Project was tedious, stupid, or poorly acted, or rather, a real example of a film that is tedious, stupid, and poorly acted. Still, despite its many faults, Albert Pyun's Invasion does retain a modicum of creepiness, perhaps a testament to the first-person approach (here, through a cop car's camera) combined with mysterious horror. The end credits run for 16 minutes, or nearly a fifth of the movie's running time. They just keep going and going, and going, and going...and going, and going. And going some more. Is this review now long enough to be submitted? Yes, yes it is.

I_can_get_you_a_toe 'What did I do to deserve this?' the lead actress wails and I can't help but wail that question alongside with her.This movie was told through the perspective of a dashboard mounted camera in a police car, so if watching the view of headlights illuminating a dirt road in the middle of the forest for over an hour is your idea of entertainment, then this is the movie for you! The basic idea of this 'film' is sound, meteorites fall to the earth in a small town and one by one the residents are infected with some kind of alien slug thing deposited in the ear. However, you see none of this. What you do see is headlight illuminated grass with low rent sound effects playing in the background to give the illusion that something intense is going on.I kept waiting for something to happen, and when nothing happened I kept waiting for someone to bludgeon me over the head for being so stupid as to continue watching this tripe.If this quantifies as a film, then next time I'm stuck in motorway traffic and not moving for over an hour, I'll just film it and lay a soundtrack of machine gun fire and helicopters over the top and call myself a filmmaker.

perezg36 This movie is the most original horror film I have ever seen. It was so unpredictable that it really made me squirm. There's a overwhelming sense of dread right from the start even though everything seems humdrum normal. It almost has a documentary feel to it. Because you can't predict what's next and because the actors don't play the characters as stereotypes, the feeling of dread just keeps growing and growing until it does get almost unbearable. And the one shot gimmick really makes the film scarier because there is no relief and because its all from a police car camera you can't see what's outside of your view but you sure do hear it! The sound and music was outstanding and so were the actors who seemed like real people caught up instead of the typical sweat faced and blood covered actress you see running around chased by the typical (pick one knife, chainsaw, sadistic torture device) carrying maniac. It was how the film did what you couldn't see that made me so scared and paranoid. Just a very clever and inventive film. My negatives would be the title Invasion, which is about as unimaginative as it can be and I wish there were a few more incidents so the viewer can catch their breath. Bravo to this film.
