Critic Reviews

  • Kevin Carr, 7M Pictures

    What could have been a fairly rote monster movie gives us a level of suspense that you normally don't get for a film that comes in under the radar.

  • Mike McGranaghan, Aisle Seat

    While perhaps not the most original or groundbreaking sci-fi/horror picture ever made, Alien Raiders at least succeeds in executing a simple-but-effective formula.

  • Steve Biodrowski, Cinefantastique

    Well what can I say about this movie? Did you like "The Thing"? If the answer is yes, then you will love this. Its basically "The Thing" in a supermarket. Trust me, its a lot better than it sounds! Watch it

    A great alien film. Almost as good as "Unearthed." Although it is kind of a rip off of the 1978 film "Alien" and it's sequel "Aliens," it was much different than any other alien film, and had a good location for it.

  • William G


    A modest but effective sci-fi actioner, and maybe the best thing Raw Feed has put out to date.
