10/10
holy crap!

everything in this movie is hilarious, witty, and terrifying. i don't know which image is more unnerving: the jehova's witnesses with helmets or the plastic pig dressed like a gay cowboy, or the scene of dorman and the alien during "the morning after".

i have never seen any student film quite like this one, where the direction is so "well, i'm here. look at me or don't," yet still so brutal. i don't want to spoil the ending, but if you've seen it, you'll know what i mean. mike mitchell is a freaking genius, i can't wait to see more from him. H.E.R.D makes the kind of sense that's pretty much inexplicable in terms of verbosity... you really just have to see it.
