This movie is cheesy, the acting quality is mostly poor and the overall plot is dumb. Yet it's somehow still entertaining. But don't come with high expectations. The special effects are good and gory, and there is plenty of suspense while the characters make one dumb decision after another and then become all melodramatic over the consequences. In other words this is a typical, fun B-horror movie.
Many aspects of this movie overlap with Tales from the Crypt and Demon Knight, which is a great movie by the way. If you like that style, meaning the non-seriousness and campy gore, you probably will like this movie, as long as you adjust your expectations, because it's not nearly as good as Demon Knight.

A scaled back version of Demon Knight
Far better than expected.
Far exceeds the garbage Hollywood has put out lately of a remake to the sequel of the reimaging of a same story from 30+ years ago but with updated cgi.
The movie is enjoyable if you go into it not expecting anything. The young actor that played the alien. Did an amazing job and probably would make Bruce Campbell proud.
Certainly Was Expecting More.....
The gore was funny for the most part. There just wasn't enough story. And there certainly wasn't any good dialogue. Most of the movie was just cheese. Can't give it anymore than a 3/10.
