Pretty Good
The film never slows down or bores, plunging from one harrowing sequence to the next.
The biggest problem with this movie is it’s a little better than you think it might be, which somehow makes it worse. As in, it takes itself a bit too seriously, which makes most of the movie feel kind of dull.
One of the most extraordinary films you will see this year. Take that as you want.
THE LATE NIGHT DOUBLE FEATURE is another throwback indie feature from director Christopher R. Mihm, made on tiny budgets and shot in black and white. They're conceived as tributes to 1950s cult cinema with deliberately retro styliings and a low-fi look. Mihm usually makes feature-length productions but these two came up short so he put them together as one. The first, X: THE FIEND FROM BEYOND SPACE, is a generic bit of fun about a space crew attacked by a man-in-a-suit alien. The second, THE WALL PEOPLE, is about unusual child abductors and less successful as the budget is too low to do the story justice. The films are too cheap to really work but at least they don't outstay their welcome too much.
