Entertainment Weekly | Lisa SchwarzbaumAdd Critic to Favorites

The characters in Alien Trespass (directed by X-Files producing alum R.W. Goodwin) are specimens of Sputnik-era determination, led by a gung-ho Eric McCormack.Read the full review

Boston Globe | Ty BurrAdd Critic to Favorites

It's pretty endearing - a low-budget labor of schlock.Read the full review

San Francisco Chronicle | Peter HartlaubAdd Critic to Favorites

Retro escapist fun.Read the full review

Variety | Todd McCarthyAdd Critic to Favorites

Good silly fun, Alien Trespass is a dead-on spoof of cheapo '50s sci-fi programmers done with plenty of self-deprecating humor.Read the full review

Chicago Sun-Times | Roger EbertAdd Critic to Favorites

It tries to be the best bad movie that it can be.Read the full review

The New York Times | Jeannette CatsoulisAdd Critic to Favorites

A charmingly sentimental but ultimately pointless hommage to the sci-fi classics of yesteryear, Alien Trespass proves only that while styles and technology have moved on, the affection for corn is everlasting.Read the full review
