QUICK TAKE:
Horror: Four lifelong friends who share telepathic gifts must deal with what appears to be an alien invasion.
PLOT:
Henry (THOMAS JANE), Beaver (JASON LEE), Jonesy (DAMIAN LEWIS) and Pete (TIMOTHY OLYPHANT) are lifelong friends who share telepathic gifts given to them in their childhood by Duddits (ANDREW ROBB), a mentally challenged boy they saved from some bullies. After an accident nearly leaves Jonesy dead, the men make their annual pilgrimage to their cabin in the woods of Maine during the middle of the winter.

While apart in two groups, the men come across two individuals in the snow who simply don't seem right. That eventually leads to encounters with various otherworldly creatures that seem intent on killing or taking over their bodies and using them as hosts.

That doesn't sit well with Col. Abraham Curtis (MORGAN FREEMAN) or his right-hand man, Owen (TOM SIZEMORE), who've worked for years in a secret department of the U.S. Army dealing with extraterrestrial incursions on Earth. They and their team have quarantined an area around the men's cabin and are intent on not letting anyone or anything - human or not - from leaving the area and possibly infecting the rest of the world.

As the men try to figure out what's going on and avoid the alien attacks, they attempt to contact Duddits (DONNIE WAHLBERG) who may be able to help them, all while having to deal with the increasingly volatile and unsteady Curtis and the decisions he makes.

Duddits Alien


(Note: The 'Our Take' review of this title examines the film's artistic merits and does not take into account any of the possibly objectionable material listed below).

OUR WORD TO PARENTS:
Here's a quick look at the content found in this R rated, sci-fi horror film. Profanity consists of at least 25 'f' words, along with many other expletives and colorful phrases. Sexually explicit dialogue is present, as is the brief sight of a photo/poster of a woman with her legs spread (in panties) and the nonsexual view of a dead man's bare butt.

Violence consists of various extraterrestrials attacking and/or killing humans, often with extremely bloody, gruesome and gory results (particularly regarding the parasite-like worms using human bodies as hosts before they're 'hatched').

Some of that material and related scenes of monsters could be rather disturbing, suspenseful or even scary to some viewers, although much of it is tinged with macabre black humor. Some lethal human on human violence is also present, while a man is graphically hit by a car and another vehicle crash is present.

Meanwhile, various characters have varying degrees of bad attitudes, while some characters drink. If you're still concerned about the film and its appropriateness for yourself or anyone else in your home who may be interested in seeing it, we suggest that you take a closer look at our detailed listings for more specific information regarding the film's content.

In some theaters, a short, computer-animated film, 'Final Flight of the Osiris,' follows the end credits (and contains 1 'f' word and 1 use of 'damn' and 'Oh my God'). During it, we see a blindfolded man and woman sparring with swords (more for foreplay than malice as they end up slicing off parts of each other's clothes). We then see her in something like a tube-top and then thong panties (we see rather realistic views of her bare butt cheeks which the man checks out by lifting his blindfold - the woman later does the same when she apparently cuts off the man's pants, but we don't see any nudity on him).

After that fantasy style sequence is done, some action and suspense follows as various octopus-like robots chase after a ship (with guns on the ship shooting and destroying those flying things). As a woman tries to enter the Matrix and warn others, the octopus-like robots continue their attack and finally break in and kill one woman inside. The ship is then apparently destroyed and the imagined version of a woman in the Matrix is also dead (with some blood on her face).

  • People drink in a bar where Beaver has a beer as well as a shot of liquor.
  • One of the guys refers to Kiefer Sutherland as 'Reefer' Sutherland.
  • All four guys drink beer.
  • Pete drinks a beer while a passenger in a vehicle.
  • Pete drinks a beer and we then see that he's had quite a few (by the empty bottles around him).
  • Curtis pours himself some liquor, drinks it, and then pours more for himself and some for Owen.
  • Duddits Alien

  • A car suddenly slams into a man crossing the street (in a graphic fashion) and he's severely injured and bloodied.
  • We briefly see young Duddits in a flashback and he has some blood and bruises on his face.
  • In a flashback, we see some blood on Duddits' face while some bullies pick on him.
  • We see a man with some blood on his face. After Beaver helps him into their cabin, the man repeatedly and loudly belches and farts (out of his control) and we hear all sorts of intestinal rumbling sounds. Beaver and Jonesy then react to the smell. We later hear a similar farting sound from a woman.
  • Pete has some blood on his face after a truck accident.
  • When Beaver and Jonesy return to check on a man, they discover blood all over the cabin, leading to the bathroom. They then burst through the door to find the man sitting on the toilet with blood everywhere (including on him). They hear something drop into the toilet and then push the man off it (he's dead and his butt is very bloody).
  • A man is very bloody while fighting with a large parasite-like creature that bites off several of his fingers.
  • The various parasite-like worms are slimy and covered in goo.
  • An alien's head appears to explode with a bloody mist floating around.
  • We see photos of victims with red marks and/or blood on their faces.
  • Curtis holds a gun while making a subordinate swear that he's telling the truth about letting some potential carriers go. The man does so, but Curtis then shoots him in the hand with bloody results (and we see blood on the wall and on a towel Curtis uses to wipe the floor).
  • We see blood on the back end of a dead woman and see a bloody trail leading away from her.
  • We see Pete's urine stream as he writes a word in the snow with it.
  • A guy has blood all over his face and neck.
  • Henry returns to find that a bloody crust has covered most everything in a cabin.
  • We see animal and alien body parts in the back of a truck that an alien makes a dog eat.
  • We see some blood on the ground around dead people (as well as their blood-soaked clothes).
  • A man has some blood down the side of his face.
  • A man is bloody and there's blood around him in the snow after he's been shot.
  • A man shoots at one of those parasite-like worms. After it lands and swallows part of his gun barrel, he shoots again and the creature explodes.
  • The various aliens have extreme cases of both for killing humans and/or taking over their bodies.
  • We hear that a student was caught cheating on an exam.
  • We see some bullies picking on Duddits (they're trying to force him to eat something after having stripped off all of his clothes down to his underwear). They also refer to the four main friends as 'girls.'
  • A young character uses the term 'retard' several times.
  • Curtis has apparently gone off the deep end and unnecessarily endangers the lives of others. He also shoots one subordinate in the hand (thinking he's lying), and shoots and kills another.
  • Scenes listed under 'Violence' and 'Blood/Gore' might also be suspenseful, unsettling or scary to some viewers. Beyond the gore, however, much of the 'scary' material is presented in a macabre, funhouse sort of way, meaning people will have varying reactions to it.
  • A man puts a handgun to his head as he prepares to commit suicide (seen from behind him and as the camera pushes in closer to him). The sudden ringing of his phone stops him.
  • Beaver and Jonesy witness a massive animal migration in the woods and wonder what they're running from.
  • Henry and Pete slowly approach a seemingly dead woman who's kneeled down in the middle of a snowy road in the woods. She then suddenly moves and startles them.
  • Beaver and Jonesy tend to a man in their cabin whose stomach has started to extend at an alarming rate (we also see it move from within). When they return to check on him, they discover blood all over the cabin, leading to the bathroom. They then burst through the door to find the man sitting on the toilet with blood everywhere (including on him). They hear something drop into the toilet and then push the man off it (he's dead) and then hear whatever landed in the toilet moving around. Beaver slams the lid shut and sits on the toilet as whatever is inside it tries to get out (which nearly knocks him off the lid). He tries to keep it down, but also reaches for a toothpick on the floor (to pacify him) while Jonesy looks for tape in the shed. As Beaver reaches out for the toothpick, the thing inside the toilet nearly bucks him off the lid and then finally does so. He then has a close encounter with what looks like a gargantuan tape worm with a vertical mouth filled with sharp teeth. It grabs him and he fights with it, resulting in him being bloody. It then bites off some of his fingers, knocks him backwards and grabs his face (we hear more sounds of it attacking him).
  • Jonesy then tries to hold the door shut as the creature tries to get under and through it (we see its teeth marks impaling the door from the other side). The doorknob then comes off in Jonesy's hands and he has a close encounter with a huge alien behind him (we first see his reaction looking at it and then see it).
  • Curtis holds a gun while making a subordinate swear that he's telling the truth about letting some potential carriers go. The man does so, but Curtis then shoots him in the hand.
  • We see one of the above parasite-like worms slowly making its way toward Pete in the snow. He's unaware of it until it grabs him in the crotch while he's urinating.
  • A monster tries to get into Jonesy's office and is seen through the peephole at the door.
  • Henry returns to find that a bloody crust has covered most everything in a cabin. He then slowly makes his way through the cabin where he encounters one of the large parasite-like worms guarding its freshly laid eggs. He then shoots and kills that creature and prepares to torch the eggs. However, he then sees that other eggs have already hatched and small parasite-like worms then come crawling after him and up his pants. He ends up crushing many of them and torching the others (and ends up setting the cabin on fire as well).
  • A minor part of the film deals with the young boys finding a missing girl (we see the posters for her disappearance) in a well or long vertical pipe, and then lowering themselves in to save her.
  • A monster chases after a man in his library and he just manages to elude it.
  • Curtis nearly shoots a subordinate as he leaves (we see the view of his scope).
  • We see the movement of worms inside a living dog.
  • A helicopter gunship opens fire on a man on the ground who fires back at it with his machine gun. The man on the ground is hit (and later dies), but he manages to hit the chopper that eventually crashes and explodes, presumably killing its pilot.
  • People try to stop an alien as well as a small worm from getting into a water supply system.
  • A large alien creature comes out of a man and then attacks another man, seemingly impaling him in the chest with its large 'arm.'

He then uses a burning branch to burn it and make it let go.
