Cat (Jennifer Evans) and her boyfriend were copulating in a moonlit graveyard when they were abducted by a malevolent gang of extraterrestrials and forced to endure a most unseemly series of highly-intrusive medical tests. Though Cat would eventually find her way back to terra firma,

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

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.

Gruesome schlock -- but whether it's beyond or beneath criticism is a matter of individual taste.

To be fair, Evil Aliens is going for a very specific audience, and viewers who ordinarily enjoy this sort of thing will probably not be disappointed.

It's splattery and loud and frantic and laden with wall-to-wall gore of the nastiest kind. And yes, I mean that in the nicest way possible.

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.
