As someone who doesn’t really like horror movies I definitely enjoyed this movie but it’s certainly not perfect. When this movie hits, it really hits, but it also loses it’s momentum at times.
At first I felt like everything with the monkey was out of place, but now after thinking on it I really like it. The message of nature being uncontrollable and animals just snapping after being made a spectacle is actually fantastic and 100% relates to the UFO.
I also absolutely LOVE the scene where the UFO is floating above the house during the storm. All the blood rolling down the house was awesome.
Sadly there are two problems I have with this movie. First, I really feel like the main characters could have been better. I really wanted to see some growth from Oj and Emerald and I don’t think we really got any. I think both Daniel and Keke’s acting was great, I just wanted more from the characters themselves. I also didn’t care for Angel too much. He wasn’t bad but I don’t think he was necessary to the plot and was always just played for jokes and I think he could’ve been more.
And my only other problem is the ending. It’s not bad but with how much the movie had been building and building I had kinda hoped the ending would be a little better. I just felt like the movie lost its momentum.
All in all though this really was a great movie even with my criticisms. Overall it’s a very solid UFO movie that turns more into a movie about nature itself - 8.5/10
