You
can’t
seem
to
get
Eduardo
Sánchez
out
of
the
woods
(or
the
woods
out
of
Eduardo
Sánchez).
This
setting
was
the
very
effective
location
for
his
breakthrough
debut
with
co-director
Daniel
Myrick
on
The
Blair
Witch
Project.
This
time
round
however
aliens
are
the
menacing
factor,
not
witches.
For
years
a
group
of
friends
had
been
living
with
the
tortuous
memories
of
being
abducted,
one
of
them
not
surviving
the
ordeal.
Furthermore
they’d
been
subjected
to
disbelief
from
friends
and
family
since
then.
When
three
of
them
capture
one
of
these
aliens
they
bring
it
to
the
doorstep
of
the
buddy
most
affected
by
it
-
all
hell
breaks
loose.
Killing
the
alien
would
mean
the
end
of
civilization
–
keeping
it
alive
could
mean
the
death
of
all
of
them
–
and
not
a
quick
pleasant
demise
at
that.
The
well-constructed
scenes
and
pacing
of
tension
makes
this
a
very
enjoyable
view
as
the
events
of
their
past
experience
unfolds,
while
they
attempt
to
contain
the
situation
of
the
present.
A
very
different
alien
tale
indeed
and
well
worth
the
watch.
The
South
African
version
unfortunately
does
not
contain
any
extras,
as
a
documentary
on
the
research
of
the
aliens
would’ve
been
interesting
to
explore.
