Independents' Day is a 2016 science fictionaction film starring Fay Gauthier, Sal Landi and Johnny Rey Diaz made by The Asylum. In the tradition of most of The Asylum's catalog, Independents' Day is a mockbuster of the 1996 film Independence Day and its 2016 sequel Independence Day: Resurgence.
Plot
The alien Orions, believing that humans are too violent, attack Earth and destroy many of the planet's capital cities. They then apparently heal many of the sick and offer to transport them; those who are hungry and others who wanted to go to another planet and many of the earthlings volunteer to go. An "Earth First" militia forms to fight the aliens, while the US Vice President (as the aliens have killed the President) negotiates with the aliens. The plot was noted to be convoluted.[1]
