Plot: "Superfan" Dennis Atherton discusses the film's tropes, aspects of the family drama that get ignored amidst the alien mayhem, and obsessively points out various details in the story and art direction that foreshadow other developments that suggest a degree of stylistic deliberation that cannot be explained away by Robert Shaye throwing in demands, while Bromley-Davenport tends to downplay these touches as intentional.
