Unshakable, witty and deeply felt, the film will be paying emotional dividends for a long, long time.

After playing with our expectations, this turns out to be a very different sort of film.

It’s fine. It's literally the definition of a fine movie. You’ve seen it before, you know every beat and outcome before the characters even do. Only question is how much escapism you’re looking for.

...for a kind of mix who seems imposible. or absurde. or crazy. but who works. in impecable manner. because it is an embroidery- film. cliches, themes, motives. and a story about...bad luck. two guys. a house. a plan. and ...the chaos. all familiar. but in different positions. and that did it a strange seductive film.

"Invaders" is an American English language short film from 2014, so this one will have its 5th anniversary two years from now, maybe less depending on when you read the review. This little live action film is perhaps the most known work here by writer and director Jason Kupfer and in terms of the mix of comedy and violence here I would say there is a touch of Tarantino to it. It runs for 6 minutes only and this already includes a great deal of credits, so it's truly a tiny little film. But it is somewhat fun and also has plot developments that I really didn't see coming. A bit of a shame for the actors that you don't see a great deal of their faces in here, but this is of course crucial to the story. Overall, it is a thumbs-up of course and I definitely recommend checking it out. No potential for best of the year of course, but a decent little fun watch and almost a must-see for horror/gore lovers. Also a nice example of how tragedy can be fairly funny with the right approach and yeah final note that one moment when we see one character through the eyes/mask of the other was really a great camera perspective. Enough now. Go see it.

I am not a fan of gore for the sake of gore; don't like it in any genre normally – and I think horror movies generally have become less and less interesting the more they focus on lingering shots of bloody violence and sadism. However, I actually really enjoyed this short film – which seems to use more fake blood than any other resource. The plot sees a Thanksgiving home invasion starting out with a debate over masks, and end up with something entirely unexpected. The first half of the short is witty in its dialogue and also some elements of the visual delivery. This sets a certain tone which I quite liked and made me feel like I was on ground that I knew. The second half was almost more enjoyable as a result of flipping this with a sudden moment of violence which is excessively absurd but yet funny.It is the type of short I really shouldn't like, but it is hard not to enjoy it for what it does and the manner in which it does it.

For those of you twisted individuals that find yourself laughing at horror scenes, where the events leading up to the gore are just plan comical, then this is a film you will truly appreciate. This film had all of us here at the office, dieing all the way through the credits... This short was incredible and stimulated a lively debate amongst our colleges here, only after we checked the locks on our doors. All laughing aside the underlay of this film will creep you out and keep you thinking of it long after, hence the above mentioned group of grown men locking the doors.For those of you who just want blood and more blood and can't appreciate the subtle humor, there is more than I can describe. This is a quality production by our accounts. The amount of shocks, twist and thrills these guys packed into this thing will definitely impress you.There is so much packed into this film. You will watch it over and over again. The pure horror in this film is suburb. True artists and professionals. This film will leave you truly impressed. If you honestly watch this and are not creep-ed out, laugh, didn't enjoy it, or think any thoughts at all..... you may be a zombie, or other part of the undead, or may want to seek medical attention, because something is definitely wrong with you. We at Virtus Protection Agency are strongly recommending you take a look at this film and look for their other works.
