High Plains Invaders (2009)


A remote town in the old west is overrun by space bugs!! This moderately cheesy, modestly budgeted, made for TV video isn't bad at all! A fresh idea parlayed into a fairly entertaining watch. There are gaffs a plenty to be sure, the most obvious being the selection of handguns (is that a Colt Python?). Character development is limited to leave room for the critters. Acting and dialogue is fair across the board, with standard TV CGI-FX. This is sort of Tremors meets Gunsmoke but with no deliberate humor. I especially liked the bounty hunter(in pic, on right)even though it seemed like they couldn't decide just how tough and ruthless to let her be.
