After about 10 minutes it should be easy enough to predict where this plot is leading, but that's what you get with core genre cinema. It's a post-apocalyptic tale that puts the characters on a planet that no longer supports life. Much like the zombie films of the past two decades, what follows is humans making each other's lives harder than necessary.

The budget was limited but the styling is pretty decent, the performances are fine and even though the plot is predictable, the pacing is solid so it never drags too much. Could Bristol have done more to make his film stand out? Certainly, but if you're looking for proper post-apocalyptic filler, this film has everything you need.
