Frugal s‑f road film, an American photographer chaperoning the boss’s daughter through the Infected Zone in Mexico, infected, that is, with giant tentacled things from outer space. A little stingy, more than just frugal, with the CGI creatures themselves, striving in their stead for a feeling of documentary vérité, achieving a feeling of mild malaise. With Scoot McNairy and Whitney Able; written and directed by Gareth Edwards. (2010) — Duncan Shepherd
