Techincally speaking, Night Feeders is about as cheap as they come. It has all the trade marks of a Z-grade feature, starting with the obvious, it is a video production (film would've been too expensive). In the end quality doesn't matter so long the film is entertaining. As it happens Night Feeders is one of those rare cases of a Z-grade feature that delivers what it intends to; extreme campy entertainment. Movies of this sort are always too cheap to be taken seriously. Some movies embrace that and are played for laughs, like Evil Aliens or Killer Klowns from Outer Space. Night Feeders has a few good lines, and parts of it are pretty chirpy, but it is not a comedy. The movie presents four quirky rednecks who find them selves up against little green men. In horror films, I am used to seeing a mean spirited portrayal of South Eastern Americans (see Texas Chainsaw Massacre, or House of 1000 Corpses, among others). These guys, though they don't amount to anything thicker than cardboard, are not as unlikeable, and for an eighty minute feature (which is short) Night Feeders spends an appropriate amount of time with them before getting to the point.Director Jet Ellors biggest mistake is his over confidence in his special effects crew. For about fifty minutes, Ellor is smart enough to keep the little men reduced to haloed silhouettes in the undergrowth but he cannot maintain this subtlety, and eventually, one of these guys steps into the light, and what we see is something that looks like it was generated using the same equipment that constructed the light cycle sequence for Tron thirty years ago. Night Feeders runs out of steam in the last twenty minutes, and I found myself quickly loosing interest, what little climax there is is not very good. In the end, the movie entertained me, and if anything, it increases my understanding of Z-grade features. There is nothing really to understand other than, they are made mostly for fun and then the makers hope that the product will find it's way to a minor film festival or that the sponsors will offer more money for the next project.

Reminisce of a Sunday afternoon sci-fi channel special NIGHT FEEDERS tells the tale of a small redneck town going through the motions; arguing with their wives over whether he should fix the car or her TV. He chooses the television to fix first if he values eating, according to her….Amidst all the hillbilly love a meteor has fallen from the skies and landed in the small one horse town. Doing what seems to be a normal occurrence for them a group of deliverance like guys head off into the woods for a little "R and R", but what they don't expect is the meteor that has landed on the town has brought someone with it…. Will the visitors overtake their town or will it be "Carolina BBQ at its finest"? NIGHT FEEDERS was a nice change of pace of a nightly movie viewing experience. Director Jet Eller put forth a lot of devotion and effort into making NIGHT FEEDERS one of the few independent sci-fi films to actually be worth while. There have been so many floating around that just do no justice for those involved. NIGHT FEEDRS is no such case. Sitting here typing up this review I honestly cant think of anything that bothered me about this film….The story was top notch and I must make note of how well Eller achieved in keeping me entertained throughout the film with his unique style of story telling. And I'd be a fool to not mention the performance of the acting, which surpasses that of a norm indie film. I thought there was a nice array of characters herein to make this a highly enjoyable movie. The performance of Donnie Evans was my favorite part of this movie. At one point he was trying to light the campfire and flamed it up to high grazing his face, asking "are my eyebrows still there??" Lines such as that throughout the film really added a different kind of vibe to this film making this one of my favorite Sci-Fi films ever seen. Kudos go out to Jet Eller and the amazing cast , led by Evans. Thanks guys; and it's Texas BBQ at its finest!!!!!!…….

This movie was as good as or better than a lot of horror movies with huge budgets. I would recommend it to anyone who likes sci-fi or the x-files. Definitely worth checking out. The aliens are pretty creepy and the main characters of the film are great hillbillies, being from North Carolina, I can tell a real hick when I see one. These guys were funny and authentic. There was some pretty good gore and lots of blood, always a good sign for a horror movie. I would say it was just as good as the Grudge or some of the other recent horror movies that have been very disappointing in the way of how scary they are. Give this movie a chance and you'll be glad you did.

I have to say for a low budget film this was very well made. The actors were great in there roles and played the parts well with a touch of humor. Not many people like a humorous horror flick , but I found this to be quite humorous for a horror flick , but not so much so that it took away from the actual script of being a horror flick. So if you like a touch of humor and horror combined I do recommend watching this show. I gave it a 10 because, for low budget the plot and graphics were well done as well as the acting. The ending was perfect also , gave just enough to make ya wonder... OK is there gonna be a part 2 eh :-) way to go guys good job. ^*^
