Why was this film even made? *Spoilers*


It baffles me it really does that an entire crew of people and so much money was put into making such a piece of crap.

You could literally sit there and tick off every cliche in the book. 1. A cabin in the woods 2. Bunch of kids who are there to have sex and get wasted 3. An alien conspiracy 4. The authorities not believing the kids until it's too late etc, etc.

If the film had a tongue in cheek approach, which is certainly didn't and was played for laughs I could understand but it totally didn't.

The 'twist' of an ending is one of the worst I can honestly say I've seen. A much better ending would of been that the aliens let the kids go and then they go to the police/army for help only to be shot down, not because it was all a cover up but because the kids themseves were now Alien Greys and they just couldn't see it. There for proving that most of the aliens were indeed transformed humans and never meant any harm in the first place.

Feel free to bash that idea, but in my opnion it would've made a much better ending than the one we got.

Weird cause when the were shot I thought perhaps the army thought they WERE greys! I thought it was going to be a twist.

Because it was fun. All the cliches was fun. If you've watched a lot of older alien type movies there are a whole bunch of scenes that you will recognize.
