I Finally Watched 'Kids vs Aliens':


Okay so I watched 'Kids vs Aliens' this morning on Shudder. The film premiere on the streaming channel back on January 20th of last year with a physical media release on April 18th 2023, via RLJE Films.

Overall it was a very enjoyable watch. The flick is definitely in the same spirit of Scouts vs Zombies and The Goonies...

The young actors all gave great performances. I'm not sure what the production budget on the film was I'm sure it was limited but that didn't stop the film from having good special effects because I was impressed with the aliens effects and the gore of course.

If you haven't seen the film definitely check it out 👽

Apparently the film is a spinoff from 2013's anthology film V/H/S/2. The story is based on the segment titled "Slumber Party Alien Abduction".

Plot: With Gary and Samantha's parents out of town on Halloween weekend, a rager of a teenage house party turns to terror when aliens attack, forcing the siblings to band together to survive the night...

Cast: Dominic Mariche, Phoebe Rex, Calem MacDonald and Asher Grayson

Written by: Jason Eisener and John Davies

Directed by: Jason Eisener

Runtime: 75 minutes

As far as I know the film has not been rated by the MPAA but the flick has strong violence, gore and strong language...
