The movie is like a dramatic sci-fi game of mafia. The creatures are so perfectly imitated human beings that they are just as convincing in being... real. The film also has moments of extreme gore, of which the special effects are quite impressive for that time. Although the creature effects are visceral, the most impressive aspect of the movie is the direction, which is cold and observant, helping develop the same paranoia and mistrust that the characters face in the film. The true horror of the film is that you can't even trust those that you considered friends.
