Netflix Watch Instantly Pick of the Week - 4/9/12

Monsters

From 2010, Monsters is a low-budget sci-fi film about two Americans - a journalist and a tourist - struggling to get back home from Central America to the United States. Why are they struggling to get home? Because in this world, Mexico has been walled off and declared an INFECTED ZONE, in which a NASA satellite crashed, unleashing a host of alien creatures and monsters onto Earth. Overcoming their obviously limited budget with smart camerawork and a dash of surprisingly well done CG effects, Monsters is a very strong film, which also excels thanks to a good story and good acting, and it should interest fans of science fiction as well as people that normally wouldn't see a movie along these lines. And this movie should definitely interest people who are into independent films, especially those low-budget ones that do a lot with very little (click here for my original review).
