Finally got to download a copy of Alien Hunters (2003). The last time I watched the film, it was on TV but I only managed halfway through because the sound effect of the alien transmission and the protagonist's visions and dreams sequence scared the wits out of me. Moreover it was at near midnight, and I had to watch in the dark because a relative who was staying over at the time slept in the sitting room. Though badly criticized by some review sites, I don't think its that bad. It's obviously low budget but there's still enough mystery and suspense in its story to keep me glued to the screen. I'm also satisfied that the writers bothered to include the reveal the true nature surrounding the alien signal and the buried pod. Not an earth-shattering reveal, but at least it's not too nonsensical. I'm also glad John Lynch's character died in the end because that guy was a total jerk.
