Alien Addiction (2018) Movie Review

​Prepare for the craziest, grossest, and most uniquely Kiwi comedy in years! Alien Addiction (2018), the bizarre New Zealand sci-fi comedy, is now available for download and streaming on HdHubFlix!

​The film centers on Riko (Jimi Jackson), a quintessential, easygoing New Zealand stoner living in the rural backwoods of Waikato. His world of casual smoking and small-town life is forever altered when an alien spaceship crash-lands near his property.

​The plot spirals into absurdity when Riko, investigating the crash, accidentally discovers the unbelievable: the alien waste product—or, to put it plainly, alien poop—provides an intensely euphoric and highly addictive high, unlike anything on Earth. Riko instantly decides he needs more of this cosmic drug.

​The rest of the film is a chaotic struggle as Riko tries to protect his new source of pleasure and his two alien guests from the authorities and a clueless intergalactic clean-up agent, who has arrived on Earth to neutralize the contamination. The movie is known for its low-budget charm, self-aware absurdity, and relentless stream of crude, uniquely New Zealand humor that satirizes small-town life, drug culture, and low-grade government conspiracies.
