Critic Reviews

  • Bill Gibron, PopMatters

    This horror hoot is overloaded with invention and sly referential riffs. It frequently plays like Trainspotting with more eyeball eating.

  • Felix Vasquez Jr., Cinema Crazed

    With the right amount of sex, gore, action, and comedy, you'll find it hard to resist...

  • John Hartl, Seattle Times

    Before he started turning out $200 million fantasy epics, Peter Jackson used to do this sort of thing while napping, and he was much better at it.

  • Adam Nayman, L.A. Weekly

    West seems to mistake smugness for genre savvy, and his aggressive, arm-punching brand of pandering quickly grows tiresome, and then unbearable.

  • Maitland McDonagh, TV Guide's Movie Guide

    While nowhere near as witty as Shaun of the Dead (2004), it has a rude energy and a go-for-broke willingness to try anything.

    This is a frequently funny, vulgar, low-budget gory good time and it contains many horror film references, my favorite being the Cannibal Holocaust gag and trust me you'll know it when you see it. The downside is the film is way too ambitious for its own good, which is my nice… More

    Hahahaha! Funny gory horror comedy! Fans of Dead Alive and Bad Taste will eat it up!

  • Antony S


    An amusing horror B-movie, Evil Aliens is a cheapo intentional knock-off of such Thatcher-baiting classics as Evil Dead and Braindead. An in-depth review is pointless, so instead I thought I'd point out everything I considered to be a reference. Evil Dead/The Texas Chainsaw… More

    This movie is just as dumb as it sounds. The aliens look obviously fake (people in a costume) that you can't tell who is who. It had very cheesey and unhumorous scenes that just didn't fit. The ending scene was just.....I can't even describe how stupid. The acting was… More
