MoPoshy Absolutely brilliant

SparkMore n my opinion it was a great movie with some interesting elements, even though having some plot holes and the ending probably was just too messy and crammed together, but still fun to watch and not your casual movie that is similar to all other ones.

Voxitype Good films always raise compelling questions, whether the format is fiction or documentary fact.

Marva-nova Amazing worth wacthing. So good. Biased but well made with many good points.

Woodyanders A group of misfit high school kids and an alien abductee work together to thwart an army of slime-spewing extraterrestrial brain monsters who want to kidnap none other than Elvis Presley (an extremely personable portrayal by Brandon Luis Aponte, who nails the King's mannerisms and charisma despite the fact that he doesn't look a bit like the Big E!). Director Richard Griffin, who also co-wrote the fluffy, yet witty script with Guy Benoit, relates the enjoyable lightweight story at a zippy pace, maintains an amiable tongue-in-cheek tone throughout, pays affectionate gently mocking homage to schlocky 50's sci-fi fare (the lovably hokey not so special effects in particular are an absolute riot!), and offers a warm evocation of the 1950's period setting. Moreover, it's acted with tremendous zest by an appealing and enthusiastic cast, with especially stand-out contributions by Sarah Nicklin as the sweet'n'spunky Betty, David Lavallee Jr. as the nerdy Sherman, Michael Reed as mean greaser bully Lucas, Daniel Lee White as the dippy Kevin, Ruth Sullivan as the sultry Siobahn, Alexandra Cipolla as the ditsy Raven, Alexander Lewis as the pompous Blondie, Rich Tretheway as the hearty, but short-tempered O'Brien, and David Erin Wilson as the gung-ho General Bedfellow. In addition, this film has a real affable charm and good-natured vibe to it that's impossible to either resist or dislike. Jacob Larimore's vibrant color cinematography makes nifty use of wipes. Daniel Griffith's robust score hits the rousing cornball spot. An immensely fun and pleasant romp.

Izlahainia I like Richard Griffin's movies. But this is not a good one. The only thing that made the movie watchable was a very strong indie cast. I think the writing was good. But I have a feeling the actors were left out to dry by the director.Michael Reed , Sarah Nicklin, & Brandon Aponte really stand out for actors. The effects were pretty solid for a low budget movie. The monsters were really pretty cool.Griffin's best is Exhumed of Nun of That. His worst may be this one or The creature from the Hillbilly Lagoon. It's a shame because I really wanted to like this movie.

mhyattwolf I saw Atomic Brain Invasion at its premier and loved it. This is old fashioned sci-fi at it's best, with a modern twist. The story line had laughs and chills for all ages. It's reminiscent of Jim Hensen's work in the way the same lines work for different age groups for different reasons. Griffin is masterful at building suspense and directing his cast for the maximum effect. And the cast really caught the flavor of the 50's and the genre. Almost as much fun as the movie was the audience response. I've never been to a movie before where everyone stayed through the credits. This movie is just a wonderful romp of a film. Definitely go see it!

ajnunes82 I grew up on movies like The Goonies and Explorers. These movies shaped me, drove a childhood of pure imagination and remain some of the favorite memories of my life. With ATOMIC BRAIN INVASION, Richard Griffin created a film that took me right back. Atomic was a master achievement in writing, directing, acting, and production design. Amazing effects and design give the film a distinct flavor of 1950's Sci-Fi Drive-In style, and the authenticity is stunning. Ted Marr's production is spot on, and detail oriented. The cast is brilliant and funny, hitting all the right notes in their delivery of fun, pure character driven performance. Kudos to all. My kids will grow up with this film.
