Silent Warnings

A group of friends go to the country for a week to work on a farmhouse. Soon they discover odd crop circles and strange figures stalking them at night. Aliens eventually show up and a battle ensues. Most people say that this movie is a Signs rip off and I can see their points with the crop circles and all, but it didn't come off that way to me. The aliens in this one seem to be a little dumber, and more agressive. It wasn't too terrible, and they only thing that really sucked was the graphics for the ailens themselves. 3 out of 5.
