Yes, it's a dumb yet interesting movie.

For lack of anything better to explain the many questions, for fun you could attach the alien glimmer phenomenon to that of propaganda, distorted reality, and the effects of brainwashing and social engineering - like many on my list of dystopian movies:

This one reminded me of Color out of Space which reminded me of this T-Mobile ad

How was Color Out Of Space? Looks like it could be semi-interesting or semi-flushable.

That's a terrible T-Mobile ad. They would have done better to green screen their shitty "lab" and do it in CG. I did a bunch of T-Mobile ads 16 years ago when some ads were still good - in my case none of the T-Mobile ads I worked on were memorable, unless it was the ones with James Earl Jones. All those phone commercials blended together back then. We'd have clients come in and half our animators would have to turn off their monitors and take a lunch because they were working on the competitors' spots.

Pretty good actually. I'd recommend it.
