Bezenby Bill Rebane's first film proper (as far as I know), and I was half curious about it, half dreading it since I'd read nothing good about it. Sure, it's as low budget as you can get, has questionable acting and has little going on, but is it really that bad? The answer is: Probably. After some red mist appears and people begin falling dead in the street, we cut to hunter Jake and his sister, who were putting up three students who are now ready to return to civilisation via plane. However, once heading for the airport they are prevented from stopping by a sick man who then collapses on the runway. Jake takes the students to the next airport and finds it deserted, where they also witness a plane crash.Our students are Eric, Dan (whom you'll be shouting 'kill him first' as he's the joker of the pack) and a guy either called Tom or Sam (I don't remember). Tom, let's call him, is the cynical one who wants to get back to society, even after witnessing strange red light bouncing about the place. Dan on the other hand is full of theories as to what's happening, although to me it sounded like he was making stuff up off the top of his head.They all head back to Jake's cabin where the film settles down good and proper for a whole load of nothing. They try the radio, look for food, try the radio again. Sometimes a mysterious voice contacts them asking where they are (I'll admit these bits were quite effective). And just when you're cutting this film a whole lot of slack, you run into the last half hour when things take a complete nose dive when the remaining people decide to wander around outside for the rest of the film until the completely bizarre ending.Add to this the Kraftwerk style take off of The Good, The Bad and the Ugly theme tune, those hilarious flying saucers and shots of people running around panicking, the random TV show, and most of all Dan (Or Stan) giving a brain melting speech about how Mars and Earth were right next to each other at some point, and you've got a film that cranks the weirdness up to ten. The fact that things almost happen sometimes is about as much 'action' as you're going to get here, as very little happens. There's also some bizarre hint at some point that Jake killed his father somehow to get insurance money that crops up from nowhere and is never mentioned again.Fans of things happening in films are going to fall into a coma with this one. Fans of Bill Rebane will need to see it anyway just to see where it all started. Fans of bad movies will have to see it to see some of the most inept aliens ever…I wouldn't say seen…I'll say hinted at – smoke bombs and flashing lights.

Thorsten-Krings Okay, most of the film is pretty boring: people sitting around in a cabin, listening to an alian invasion, nothing much happening in terms of group dynamics. Special effects are beyond belief. That's something that would not have happened to Ed Wood, he would have made an awful film on the same budget but with much better special effects. However, the film does have its redeeming features. The idea of having radio/TV stations still running while earth is being taken over clearly influenced Romero in Dawn of the Dead. Some dialogue is reasonably funny and some shots are pretty atmospheric. like the deserted airport in the beginning. The final scene is really funny, the last survivors turn into Adam and Eve in a completely over the top scene, and it's not the hunk but the nerd who gets the girls. That's funny. However, the music takes the biscuit. The theme tune is a rip off of The Good, the bad and the Ugly and no one except for the great Ed Wood in Jail Bait has ever used music so completely clueless. 20 or 30 minutes less and the film would have been acceptable.

wes-connors "A group of campers in the Canadian wilderness begins (sic) to hear strange reports over their radio. Tales of a plague spreading across the Earth, sightings of bizarre beings as well as planes and cars malfunctioning fills the airwaves. Terrified by what they've been listening to, the campers decide to barricade themselves at their cabin in order to face the danger," according to the DVD sleeve's synopsis.Aka "They", this is a very difficult movie to sit through. Hardly anything ever happens to the five main characters. They seem to be isolated in snowy Wisconsin, for reasons severely lacking in clarity, as the Earth is invaded from within. The "leader" finally emerges as "Stan" (Paul Bentzen); he is the blonde guy with the beard. "Sarah" (Debbi Pick) and "Jake" (Nick Holt) are brother and sister. "Eric" (Karl Wallace) seems to be the early "leader"; and, "Andy" (Robert Arkens) quintuples the group.The startling ending (a pair of loin-clothed young children are tastefully shown) would have worked; however, the preceding 90 minutes don't lead you there. The very derivative soundtrack jumps the shark when "Jake" goes for help in his snowmobile, to the tune of "The Good, the Bad, and the Ugly"!

vampi1960 invasion of inner earth also known as;they is a extremely bad science fiction movie.we don't see any aliens or flying saucers,not even a pie plate on a string nothing,its a exercise in tedium,but the music on the soundtrack is OK.there are killer flashlight beams however.i don't get it what was directer bill rebane thinking?even the giant spider invasion was entertaining even if it was crappy.and there's no well known actors in this film.is it worth watching?i would have to say no unless you really want to be bored to death.the title does sound promising but really does'nt deliver.this is about 90 minutes ill never get back.but if you like bad dull boring movies then invasion from inner earth is for you,shame on you bill rebane.1 out of 10 awful!
