8/10

Amusing road-trip, character-driven, quirky outing. Not action-packed sci fi.

I like quirky fillums; too quirky for many other viewers. Repo Man (Alex Cox) is my fave fillum of all time. And I think Rubber is superb.

Night Of The Alien is indeed a low-budget offering but very well played imo and not as cheesy as it could be like, say, Hell Comes To Frogtown or Slave Girls From Beyond Infinity.

It's almost like Little Miss Sunshine with drugs and an alien guest star.

But it does lack pace and any major action. It's laid-back, like many of the characters.

I think the characters are mostly attractive and likeable and it has a stonking soundtrack.
