Today was an extremely dreary day here in Chesapeake
Plot/ 200 years in the future, a Martian police unit is
dispatched to transport a dangerous prisoner from a mining outpost back to
justice. However, when the team arrives they find the town deserted and some of
the inhabitants possessed by the former inhabitants of the planet.
When I out this on today, I had no idea on what it would be
like or what to expect. Unfortunately, what I found was no what I had hoped
for. Sure, it was entertaining, but it could have been a lot better. The acting was decent, but the
characterization, scripting, and the overall feel and atmosphere just did not
work. Of course, as some say, John Carpenter movies are an acquired taste, and
for the most part, I agree. However, even after some time, this one did not
grow on me. In the end, it is somewhat entertaining, and will help pass some
time on a dreary day, but it is nothing special.
