Mark Fisher disappeared from his home in a brilliant flash of blue light almost two years ago. His friend Seth Hampton was the last to see him alive. Now a string of grisly, violent murders leads Seth to believe that Mark is back, and something evil is living inside of him.

Sammy-Jo Cervantes There are moments that feel comical, some horrific, and some downright inspiring but the tonal shifts hardly matter as the end results come to a film that's perfect for this time.
Calum Hutton It's a good bad... and worth a popcorn matinée. While it's easy to lament what could have been...
ulrichburke What stunned me when watching this film was the sheer, unstoppable, intensity of atmosphere all the way through. All down to the director. The film's tone was partially reality movie (like Blair Witch/Paranormal et al) and partially real movie (great chilling music) and the fact the actors didn't look like they were acting, but were just saying/doing their parts gave an edge of reality to the movie that sucked me in and held me there. I'm not too sure WHAT was making the atmosphere so intense but I was a rabbit in the movie's headlights the whole way through. The killings were good. There were hardly any special effects, and you didn't think there were going to be any, so the first time you see them (I'm NOT saying what happens so no spoilers here!) you're surprised/shocked. Yet even then you feel, somehow, you're there, that he could turn round and you'd be next. It's like one of those nightmares where you're witnessing terrors happening to everyone else in the dream bar you, yet you know your turn is coming and you're trying to wake up before it does. Brilliantly directed movie making excellent use of what little it has. Ignore the idiots calling it 'boring' 'badly acted', if you want a movie that hooks you like a silent scream in your mind and never lets you go till the end, that's the one. I loved it. Best low-budget movie I've seen in a very long time. Don't know if the TV series is based on it but, if it is, that should be great too. (If it's not, ignore that sentence. Never seen the series. Wrong country here!) Ignore the moaning idiots. For intensity of atmosphere, this one's a winner and well worthy of an 8. WOuld've been a 9 if the acting was a bit better! Watch it. Chris.
panther_husky First of all, the beginning off the movie captured my attention but sadly the interest started to dwindle and found myself wanting the film to finish.Flaws, quite a few of them and the continuity? looked as though the crew couldn't care much about it!As for the acting; I do say it wasn't bad at all but there were times when I thought "how stupid can people be". You can tell they did this to either get the audience a little angry or tensed. I personally kept shaking my head and repeated the word "stupid"Finally, it reminded me more of slasher movies. Lots of blood and murders. There didn't seem to be a real story behind it all. The why's and how's were missing and what's going to happen next, most of you may figure it out half way through the film.Nothing exciting here to watch.
yaktheripper Seriously, the last half of the movie is flooded with crickets...despite it obviously being winter, or at least cold outside. Okay. 10 star review? Dump that. Hilarious. If this is a 10 star movie, this is either the only movie you ever saw and it appeals specifically to you OR..you're buddies with the director...take your pick. Despite all of this..."Almost Human" is decent. It ain't horrible, but it's not great or even cult level acceptable. It's a low budget, gory, alien indie flick with mostly substandard acting and a pretty thin plot. Dude gets abducted. Dude returns. Dude is alien hybrid on a murder spree and wants to convert us all to aliens via a phallic mouth tube he spits into folks mouth AND he wants to get back with his old girlfriend. Dude's buddy knows it's going down and dog-gone-it he's gonna FIGHT BACK! Yeah! I'd be proud if I made this flick...but I have no experience in cinematography...so there's that. Watch if your in the mood to see that bearded dude kill some people but forget the plot. Why the aliens chose this country dude to take over the world and not a politician, celebrity, or even a prostitute...one can only wonder. I'm not hating...just sayin.
hiyaboyos Watched this movie not expecting much and and I must say my expectations were met. Typical B movie material.The acting is forced and the script is totally unoriginal. The effects are somebody's idea of special effects. Everybody at some point has a bloody nose, face or mouth. Not sure what that is all about. Basically it is a movie with bits and pieces borrowed from other movies rolled into a "new" movie with a new name, new faces, new places, etc. It's basically Fire in the Sky meets, Invasion of the Body Snatchers, meets, The Hidden meets, Halloween meets, etc, you add your own... Please spare us and DON'T make a sequel. Not recommended unless you want a good laugh or too.
