Intrigantna nezavisna SF drama redatelja i scenarista Garetha Edwardsa koja je na ovogodišnjem Cannesu izazvala veliki interes. Prvi komentaru su uglavnom jako pozitivni i opisuju film kao "A creature feature unlike any other, and one that has announced the arrival of an exciting new talent in the shape of this young writer-director, 4 stars"..."Languid and dreamy, MONSTERS is not your average alien invasion movie"..."To its ultimate credit, Monsters is a little sci-fi movie with big monsters that understands first that you must have interesting characters. And those characters must fit inside of an interesting narrative. And that narrative must be supported by interesting visuals. Edwards accomplishes all of this, on his first try."...
Također, spominju se i neke stilske poveznice sa prošlogodišnjim hit filmom "District 9". Ono što posebno treba izdvojiti ovdje, jer to da u cijelom filmu igra samo dvoje glumaca, u potpunosti nepoznati Whitney Able i Scoot McNairy. Izuzev Canneskog festivala, ovaj film je bio prikazan i na nekim drugim festivalima poput Edinburgh Film Festivala, Los Angeles Film Festivala te još nekim. 12. studenog 2010 će napokon imati i službenu UK premijeru a ubrzo će valjda usljediti i američka, te daj Bože naša domaća premijera.

SLIKESix years ago previously, a NASA probe returning to earth with samples of an alien life form, crashed over Central America. Soon after, new life forms began to appear, and half of Mexico was quarantined as an INFECTED ZONE. Today, the American and Mexican military still struggle to contain "the creatures"... The story begins when a US journalist agrees to escort a shaken American tourist through the infected zone in Mexico to the safety of the US border.
