"No one’s been more encouraging of Screen Slate than Richard Hell, who saved its hide more than he realizes and promoted it with a missionary zeal. The first time we spoke we met at the late Café Orlin, the site of one of his most memorable scenes in the film, and then one of the last vestiges of the city that Smithereens portrays. I could have died. Smithereens was the first American indie to compete for the Palme d’Or, and it presages that whole wave we popularly associate with Jim Jarmusch, Spike Lee, and so on. I know life isn’t a competition, but this is the best of those debuts. And when you consider Susan Seidelman alongside Allison Anders, Sara Driver, Penelope Spheeris, Lizzie Borden, Kathleen Collins, and Joel DeMott, among so many others, women really slayed in the American indie ’80s."

Movie Rating

Alien Domicile is a low budget movie ($85,000) that can only be described as a cheaper made version of the Alien franchise. Five government contractors wake up to find themselves confined underground at the infamous Area 51. They are forced to confront a sinister government experiment and a horrifying Alien host.

The cinematography in Alien Domicile isn’t all that bad, there are some really nice moments when the lighting etc builds the tension of the scenes as does the camera angles, which all bring this little indie movie to life, the acting in the movie is nothing to scream about, it’s very much low-budget indie movie style, but again this is something that adds to the appeal of the movie and the style that the director has shot the movie and the production of the overall movie.
