    worse than bad

    I can imagine the people that found this film funny are the kind of people who laugh at 'football in groin' and animals getting run over on motorways. They probably also shout 'WOO ALL RIGHT!!' all the time when playing their online multiplayer tournaments.

    IF AFTER AROUND 5 MINUTES YOU THINK TO YOURSELF HMMM THIS INTRO'S A BIT ON THE 'TRYING TO BE FUNNY BUT FALLING SO FAR OFF THE MARK' SIDE THEN DON'T BOTHER WITH THE REST OF THE FILM, OR MORE FOOL YOU. I can't get my life back but you can. There's still hope. press stop. eject it. watch the wall instead, I guarantee it will be more fun.

    Dreadful

    To be honest i'm not sure that i'm qualified to write a review on this film, as i didn't actually watch the whole film, i lasted all of 40mins, so there is a chance it could have been an Oscar worthy film, but i seriously seriously doubt it. Man has faced some tough challenges through the years and one of the toughest will be sitting through this garbage to the end. I didn't expect much from the film when i rented it but with a cast of Emily Bouff and Norman lovett, you would of least thought it would be watchable. The acting is terrible, the script was woeful and the effects at best were laughable. Don't even waste 40 mins like me, STAY CLEAR

    Its Cheap , its Nasty and you'll love it .

    Dont expect complex characterisation, deep philosophical investigation of the human condition, self indulgent arty farty dialogue or poncy camera work and directorial flourishes.

    If you are not already sold n this film , it does include : the lovely Emily Booth , plenty of gratuitous sex and dismemberment, impaling , chainsaws , ballistic menhirs and even combine harvesters.

    The budget is low , but the production and acting are workmanlike , The humour is crude but no worse for that. If you like the genre and are in the right mood i can see no reason why you wouldn't thoroughly enjoy this film

    British B Movie at it worst.

    Its funny, entertaining and above all aimed at the gore monsters and late night film/DVD watchers.

    Emily Booth is fantastic and makes a change to see her acting (ish) opposed to her presenting strange computer shows.

    Clearly made on a low budget, the SFX are surprisingly good.

    How to sum up this little B movie gem ?

    Top Class Rubbish

    Okay, so Evil Aliens is not going to win any Oscars but it sure does deserve to be remembered as the most awful yet entertaining piece of film to emerge from Britain in a very long time. If you enjoyed Bad Taste, or even Lobster Man from Mars, then you will love this.

    None of the actors are likely to be scooped up by Hollywood very soon, and the special effects are so obviously done on a budget that doesn't exceed my weekly shopping bill. The film isn't really frightening, although does have a few very gory moments. What makes this film so awesome is it's hilarious. So bad it's good.

    Any film in which the screenwriter sees fit to include a sequence where an alien (chasing a potential victim), slips over a banana peel is genius.

    Ridley Scott, it is not.

    Hmmmm, once again I thought, 'low budget british horror, give it a whirl, it can't be worse than some of the tripe coming out of the USA', and once again I was hopelessly wrong.

    Apart from the ever-lovely Emily Booth who I'm sure has many male, and very likely female fans, this film really is poor. The film is titled as 'Jake West's Evil Aliens', which simply alerts you to the identity of the person responsible for this tosh. I hope it's an alias as admitting that you wrote, directed and produced such cobblers, smacks of either hubris, simple masochism, or a failure to realise that you have no talent whatsoever.

    Awful acting, a budget lower than Doctor Who during the 1970's, laughable CGI, and a script that should be taken outside and put out of its misery with a very big gun. Peter Jackson used to do this kind of thing properly with virtually no budget either, see Brain Dead or Bad Taste, but then again, he has talent.

    Do yourself a favour and settle down with a repeat of Inpector Morse instead, it's funnier, and has much better acting.

    Avoid like the plague.

    Bloody good fun

    Its not a well made film, its not well acted, but it is a good laugh.

    Loads of killing, limbs getting chucked about and it pays resect to a lot of other low budget horror movies too

    They forgot to write a script

    Awful, awful movie. Don't ever watch this. Someone paid a lot of money for this inane, half-witted crud to be made. Shame on them.

    OMG

    One of the worst movies I've seen in my life, i wouldn't even use the disk as a beer mat. I found not one part of the movie funny and had to turn it off well before the end as i couldn't do it anymore. Great movie to torture someone with aka clockwork orange style
