• Visual Effects of Awesome: Considering the tiny budget, anything resembling special effects would have been commendable but its visuals would actually shame some movies 100 times its cost. Special mention goes to the ending, when two of the creatures meet whilst Samantha and Andrew look on in awe.
• What an Idiot!: Andrew's admittedly drunken decision to sleep with a random woman simply because Samantha shot him down isn't so bad considering he's single. She probably only rejected him due to fact he was so drunk or maybe conflicted over being still technically engaged. But the true error of judgement comes the morning after when his fling ends up stealing Samantha's passport and Andrews cash. Leaving your valuables unattended with your room door wide open is a bad idea in general. Moreso with a stranger still in your bed.
  • Of course, given how much tequila he'd drunken the night before, the hell of a hangover he had by that morning might have been somewhat responsible for this clear lapse in judgement, as well as his wanting to apologise to Samantha for his drunken behaviour the night before.
• What Do You Mean It's Not Political?: The director has denied paralles with Mexican immigration to the United States, but a lot of people have still drawn the comparison. The fact that a wall really is being built on the Mexican-American border does not help.
