    Like an ultra violent Twilight Zone episode!

    I saw this movie online and thought it was really well done for what it is. It's low budget but has lots of action. The story made me feel like I was watching an old Twilight Zone episode, which being a sci-fi fan made me really love it. It's slow at times, but the action scenes, the brutality and effects more than make up for the sometimes off pacing. i don't agree with some of the other reviews that said it had bad acting. The acting was great. The fight choreography was really well done. There are more than a couple scenes in there that will make you flinch from the blood and gore. If you like sci-fi, Twilight Zone, and fight movies, give this a shot. Don't go in thinking your watching a billion dollar blockbuster from one of the studios and you'll have a good time.

    I was unfortunate

    I was unfortunate to be suckered in by the shill rating above of a 7.2 that is now a 7 and should be a solid 3 in the weeks to come.

    It is a sad state of affairs when a horrid film is pushed, as a favor to friends of cast, writers, producers, etc in order to dupe people who will STILL find the rating false and the movie pure crap

    This is sort of like how elections run, I suppose. People claim a thing, tell you it is great then when you are exposed to it yourself you realize it was one big lie

    So

    Bad acting

    HORRID effects

    POOR writing

    Silly combat

    ...and, again, a shilled rating that does not reflect the true trash this piece is

    Fun sci-fi action flick with lots of blood!

    This is an Indi film that I watched a screening of a few years back. It reminds me of some old school sci-fi flics I would watch growing up. It's not a big budget action drama that seems to be made every five minutes these days. It has a solid story that I have to admit was a little confusing at first but all gets tied up in the end. Lots of great fight scenes with really good choreography. The camera angles put you in the action for most of those fights and there are a lot of them! Some gore no nudity although there was one scene that I was hoping for a little skin but alas it was for not, bummer. Other than that, I would recommend this to anyone looking for a late night action flic. It's certainly better that anything Steven Segal has put out in decades.

    How Did This Get Made?

    I somehow made it all the way to the unoriginal and empty ending.

    There really is nothing good about this movie. It is the same garbage over and over, with minimal change or development. The acting is increasingly bad with each scene, like worse than an free intro to acting class. The production and music are equally bad; both are rushed and try so very hard to achieve something but fantastically fail.

    I cant believe this movie was even made. Did ANYONE view it before giving it the OK? There is a 41 minute episode of Star Trek that covers this essential plot and does it with more intelligence and substance.

    Worse than TV-only movies by far. All positive reviews of this movie are fake. Very few movies I wish I never would have come across. This tops the list.

    It's Brutal, as in you'll lose brain cells.

    I immediately starting laughing at how bad this is when it started. Couldn't even finish it. Super B grade, and super terrible. False reviews on here. But feel free to go waste your time and see for yourself.

    The very beginning scene has two dudes fighting and the terrible sound effects of the punches are hilarious. The fake punches, the shaky "action" camera. I tried to sit through it but it was just so lame that I literally almost died. I don't even know what actor would seriously agree to being in this film. It is worse than Sci-Fi movies that are made for TV, and you know those are pretty cheesy.
