The film, Extraterrestrial, was a major pain in the ass. 
 

 You want to experience that film?
 

 Here;Prepare yourself to be sorry you're watching but are already too invested 
to quit the film -- but get this -- sorry because the film is so dang good at 
manipulating your mind using now well known moviedom tactics and it becomes 
tiresome to have to keep coming upright and getting pissed at the attempts, 
aaaaaaaand, then the film grabs you again and you forgive the psychiatric rape 
until, YES AGAIN, they sit you up straight with the abusive fucking hacking at 
your mind's underpinings, aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaand, BAM, they suddenly switch gears 
on ya and you're in a whole new milieu and this cheap trick makes you stay in 
the film even longer without fastforwarding because you can't believe these 
characters are now going to have to adjust to a WHOLEFUCKINGNEW paradign again 
and again so you just have to watch 20 more seconds and THAT'S ENOUGH time in 
which the present peril is heightened and then a few seconds of the next cut 
elsewhere in the script where another ongoing peril is being forwarded yet more 
while GET THIS the script is well written, and the acting's topnotch, and the 
direction's "okay," and the editing is like PERFECT for triggering you again 
and again without resolve as it drags you relentlessly without your permission 
through some of the most overwrought scenes in which at least a dozen actors 
get to chew the scenery to shreds in massive bad emoting and it becomes obvious 
how they got a decent actor to take the lousy parts strewn throughout this film 
like shrapnel.
 
Aaaaaaaaaaaaaand then the film lasts another 85 minutes with the ending being 
the most elongated TRUE LOVE scene in any slasher/alien/horror/scifi/everyone 
fucking dies film. It would win a daytime Emmy for sure. Took about a thousand 
hours of hyper-time.
