Invasion of Alien Bikini (2011)

Somehow, Invasion of Alien Bikini manages to be even weirder than its title suggests. The premise of the film involves a sexy alien who needs the sperm of a human male, and I was hoping for a bizarro sci-fi comedy. Instead, I got a movie that was always strange, frequently dull, and misogynistic in a way that made me uncomfortable.

It's not like I was expecting well crafted female characters here, but the realism of its fight scenes made it hard to take this movie as tongue in cheek. At times, I felt this movie was going for something I wasn't really getting, but the pacing was so excruciating I wasn't willing to spend time deciphering it. Mostly, I was just glad it was over.

1 painfully long game of Jenga out of 5.
