I really hope they are actual creatures from the story.
I'm leaning creatures but just comically poorly done
My hope is that this forms part of the charm of it. But then again D gave it a poor grade. So probably isn’t the indie masterpiece I was hoping for.
It's ass

It’s 2020 Children of the Corn the new floor? The lowest end of films?

I liked how that aliens actually seemed alien and not just humans in costumes. The way they moved and acted was great.

Nonhuman. It's explained in the beginning, but the whole thing is shit, so it's easy to forget.

Nah, Things, and its sequel, are watchable.

I mean, technically, there are four sequels, but I've only seen the one.

Actually, there seem to be nine sequels. I only knew about four.

The novelty wore out pretty quick. It's splattery, but not much else.

Out of curiosity, I decided to see how well my phone holds up to watching netflix, since I spend almost 2 hours each way commuting. So I watched Viking Wolf this morning, and Please Don't Kill Me on the way home.

I'm happy I enjoyed both. I only noted Please Don't Kill Me for Ta-Ta's because she's got a cute set, but unless I have a really dry run this October I don't see her winning.

Agreed. They’ve also managed to really perfect the eerie “uncanny valley” movement that feels janky and weird. Plus clever creature designs. Was a fan!

I also watched Re/Member yesterday! That was a fun new watch, definitely more my thing. Bit creepy/gory but also just fun concept and not perky trying to jump scare you. The added bonus was that I enjoyed (very much) some of the mote practical looking effects. Because CGI can go rather wrong.

The people that made these films aren't clever enough for that. There's Things, then Things, then Things II. Don't ask me why, but there ya go.
