Atomic Eden

First of all Atomic Eden is not a movie which will win an Academy Award. However, if you are like me and you are fan of John Carpenter movies, especially "Assault on Precinct 13" you will enjoy and appreciate this film a lot! Besides that, Atomic Eden is bullet riddled and bone smashing love letter to the glorious time when video stores still ruled the world. You'll read many reviews for this movie where people will dismiss this as trash but I'm here to say that this film wasn't made for people like that. It was made for the people who live and breath action and can't get enough of it. Look past the flaws and know that this is indie action filmmaking on a budget and you'll have a good time. It pretty much should call out to any fan who grew up watching any of the epics that Cannon Films put out back in the day.

This is a movie that brings back the charm of the 90s action movies. It's also a tribute, to the direct-to-DVD movies of those days that always featured a big star. Fred "The Hammer" Williamson has been successfully cast here as well. I was also very happy to see Mike Möller, who is currently traveling all over the world and is now involved in Hollywood films. Atomic Eden has no lengths and is well timed. It is remarkable what has been achieved on a tiny budget. Wonderful fun for an evening. Best get the mediabook, which has beautiful cover artworks. In the booklet you can read a lot about the production history.

I was stumbling over Atomic Eden by accident. I didn't know much about it before I watched it on Amazon Video. This film turned out to be a pleasant surprise.

Don't get me wrong, this film is far away from being perfect, but if you are searching for an old school type of action B movie. You will have a lot of fun watching Atomic Eden. Watching this particular movie is like getting in a time machine and taking a trip back to 1985 or 1990 when over the top action flicks like this were the norm.

I found this movie by chance on Amazon and decided to give it a try - and wasn't disappointed.

ATOMIC EDEN delivers exactly what you think: some interesting characters exploring an abandoned industrial complex full of gasmask wearing minions, a lot of shooting and fighting and the Charme of the good old action movies from the late 80s.

Mike Moller as the fighter is a very talented young martial artist, and no surprise his role is one of the best, followed by the Hammer who is a veteran in slightly grungy and independent movies.

If you are interested in some simple but good action and a wide variety of characters with different abilities and strength, ATOMIC EDEN is what you are looking for.

I had fun with this movie and would recommend it to my friends.

This movie is of course terrible. It's like these directors make a half-assed effort on purpose. Seriously there's more thought and preparation put into a teenagers TikTok video. But rest assured there is a light at the end of the tunnel. If it wasn't for movies like these RiffTrax would have nothing to riff on. Get the RiffTrax version of the his movie... You'll thank me?
