The films begins with something falling from the sky into the woods. It is some sort of alien being. Cut to a couple called Ruth(Monroe) and Harry(Lacy). They are are on a trip into the woods. They set up camp for the night. Ruth sees a weird deer when she gets up to go to the bathroom. It stares at her. She feels weird. Harry proposes to her and she turns him down. She doesn't want to get married. They argue about it. She wakes up the next morning and Harry has gone for a walk. She finds a dead deer. It has been sliced in half and covered in some sort of fungus. Harry comes back and he sees it. They look for it in a book they brought and discover that it is a virus. Ruth is worried about what killed the deer. She and Jack make up.
Ruth goes off the find a spot to pee in. She sees a cave and there are glowing things in there. She finds a puddle of glowing goo. Something is in there. Harry looks for her and he finds her standing in the woods. She seems odd. She starts behaving strangely. The next day, she tells him that she was wrong about turning him down. She says that she wants him to ask her again in the same spot as before. When they get there, she pushes him off the cliff and kills him. She passes out and a couple find her. They ask her what happened and she can't remember. They take her to their camp. Harry appears. He is fine. Ruth runs away. Harry kills the people who helped Ruth. He confronts her and she tells him that she knew that Harry was dead. She saw his body in the cave. She realised that the alien was in Harry and that is why she pushed him off the cliff.
Harry tells her that he is a scout. He can't kill her. He tells her that he loves her. She runs away. She tries to attack him but he says that he is Harry. He can feel everything that Harry felt. They go to the beach and he shows her his spacecraft. He wants to take her to another planet. He tells her that more of the aliens are coming to earth. She agrees to go with him to distract him then he runs into the water. He follows her but gets attacked by a shark. He revives himself again. He gets her and puts her into a cocoon in the cave. Harry can turn into her. She lets all of her fears and anxieties go into him. The creature has a panic attack and looks for something to help. There is nothing. She breaks the cocoon and she kills it as it has been weakened. She reaches her car and she drives off. The creature talks to her through the radio. The movie ends with the aliens coming.
This film wasn't bad. It was comedic in parts and I didn't really like that. I thought that this film would be different. I thought that it would be more about something evil in the woods rather than a body hopping alien. It could have been better, I thought. I wanted more of a killer alien hunting them down. That would have been more interesting. I don't want to put you off, though. If you enjoy a bit of horror with a lot of sci-fi, then give this a try. I wouldn't class it is as straight horror, but there are horror elements in it so I can't call it a sci-fi film alone. I will give it a 5/10.
