This is a pretty good short film that borrows heavily from familiar 80s science fiction (and others) esp. V and They Live. A guy is given some pills that allow him to see aliens instead of the humans they’re supposed to be. He is the only one that can see these creatures but is it a hallucination? So the guy goes on a rampage fighting or shooting the creatures while on the run. Overall I like this even tho it does a refresh on that concept. I’d program this in a movie night b/c it’s crafted well and looks good.
This is how bad my memory has become; I had viewed this last year and completely forgotten about it.
