SyFy Original Movie: Independence Day-Saster (2013)

Celebrate the United States day of independence by watching Independence Day-Saster, a SyFy original film premiering tonight, June 27 at 9pm ET/PT. I’m sure I had you at “SyFy original film,” but here’s some more info about the film just in case:

In Independence Day-Saster, Aliens attack Earth, crippling our defense systems, so a small town guy and rebel scientist team up to find out the aliens’ weakness and save us all. Don’t expect to see any biological aliens in this flick- these otherworldly beings are robot drone balls attacking the Earth vis a vis a crapload of CG lasers. Independence Day-Saster stars Ryan Merriman (Final Destination 3), Tom Everett Scott (Southland), Emily Holmes (Snakes on a Plane), and Andrea Brooks (Supernatural).

Sci-fi original films always pack in the shlocky fun and Independence Day-Saster is no different. It doesn’t mess around- the alien balls attack early in the film, throwing things into chaos as those left alive try to survive the onslaught. This film may not win any prizes, but it’s better than most SyFy originals while still having the same kind of fuzzy CG and awkward acting we’ve come to know and love from them. Don’t forget to tune in or set your DVR for 9pm tonight, so that you, too, can celebrate Independence Day on June 27 for some odd reason!

This is the Action Flick Chick, and you’ve just been kicked in the ass!
