Alien Surveillance operates within the conventions of found-footage and mockumentary genres. The narrative prioritizes the spectacle of an alien invasion over delving into human identity or social structures. The film adheres to established science fiction clichés without attempting to disrupt them. It lacks the intention to explore multi-layered themes or provide social critique. Ultimately, the focus is on the external mechanics of the genre, overlooking internal social complexities.
