Bad Cinema
So we were watching Alien Siege last night....pretty standard sci-fi stuff. Aliens need something in human bodies to combat some virus they picked up so they're going to destroy Earth if they don't get a zillion humans to 'process'. Or some such nonsense. And there was the obligatory scene in which the evil alien has captured the daughter of the human opposition leader. She's strapped to a table with metal bands of course, while the evil alien tells her about how he's going to put some kind of field around her so she won't be upset while her body's being 'processed'. Then he indicates that he's going to let her respond.
And I notice something.
This alien race, capable of intergalatic travel and all kinds of marvelous light-years-advanced technology & weaponry, had placed something over her mouth to keep her from talking.
Duct tape.
I guess it really is hard to improve on a good thing.....especially when you're getting close to going over budget.

Is there anything you can't fix with duct tape?
BTW, I forgot to mention that the aliens' guns were clear plastic SaladShooters. Heh.
