However, if you're a goofy bum like me, this movie will make your day. The chase ends when DeVries encounters a police blockade overseen by Detective Thomas Beck. If you are an impatient person with a busy life, then you will definitely NOT want to spend any money or time on this film. Jack DeVries, a quiet citizen with no criminal past, robs a Los Angeles Wells Fargo bank, kills all of the security guards inside, and leads the Los Angeles Police Department on a high-speed chase. The aliens acquire human bodies, much as humans might go shopping, casually discarding one form for another when it is worn out or no longer wanted. I would LOVE to own this movie on DVD with extensive commentary (and deleted footage) so that someone involved in this undertaking can explain to me what they were thinking. At one level, The Hidden is a film about acquisition, by implication digging at the American Dream. Then, the 9-year-old told the dream to his dad (who is a film producer) and, since the film producer had nothing better to do, gives into the kid and does it (which is the final blow necessary in thoroughly destroying his career). I have the feeling that it was based on a dream some 9-year-old had after a night of eating peanut butter and cheese whiz. This movie was truly hilarious (although it doesn't intend to be at all). Most people would turn this off within the first 2 minutes, but when you're someone like me who spends the entire daylight of Saturday recovering from the prior evening's drunken rampage, and something that seems thoroughly wasteful presents itself to you, you take hold of it for all it's worth (long sentence, huh?). Shapeshifter would be great to incorporate into a beer drinking game with friends. I give it a 10/10 for the reason that I have never seen a more ridiculous movie. Rating: R Genre: Sci-fi Original Language. Mind-warping visions from retro animated techniques reconfigure the mind’s eye of modern overstimulation with depth-defying optical illusions, opening inner doorways of visual magic with organic shapeshifting perceptions.I don't know where to begin. Movie Info An FBI agent (Kyle MacLachlan) and a homicide detective (Michael Nouri) hunt the current human host of an orally exchanged alien life-form. Heady video by Padraig O’Reilly blends old hand-drawn illustrations with fuzzy memories and vintage movie clips to form an archetypal stream of consciousness anchored in hidden dreams. Nostalgic sun-dazzled vibes inject a groovy array of uneven guitar textures with slightly distorted and obsessive wanderings, rugged strumming scrapes, and rambling searing leads, whilst stumbling drum beats and throbbing bass lines lift high-energy breathless vocal angst into a swaying urgency of long-lost reflections for a seemingly lucky “Splendid Life.”
