Blending excellent reporting and strong storytelling, this is a disturbing film truly stranger than fiction

I think this is a new genre that they're all sort of working their way through it and haven't got all the kinks worked out yet but it's a genre that works for me.

All of these films share one commonality, that being a kind of emotional center that humanizes a cast of monsters.

Low budget sci-fi that tries hard. Earth has little over an hour to prepare for a meteor on a collision course. A small group of doomsday theorists and military types have been working on a bunker for a long time just waiting for to be used. Ten years after the meteor strike, a search party leaves the bunker looking for solar panels, medical supplies and food. They discover the world has been taken over by mutants that rule the nights. The search party meet a mysterious traveler that calls herself, The Preacher (Ashanti), who lets it be known there is a safe haven. Disjointed plot, elementary level effects and a lot of actors trying to do too much. David Winning takes credit as director. Singer Ashanti does a commendable job as does Holly Deveaux. Other cast members: Jason Cermak, Amber Marshall, Megan Tracz, David LeReaney, Greg Lawson and Sydney Bell. Kim Coates makes a cameo appearance. Redeeming is the eye candy!

Low budget movie. It wasn't a complete waste. However, I checked this out because Kim Coates was first on the list as one of the players in this title, but he was barely in it. He appeared in about the first 5 minutes of the film, and reappears in the last 4 minutes. I don't plan on giving this film a second chance. There are still a handful of unanswered questions about what happened in the film as well. I grabbed this film out of a redbox, which we can't always expect great films from that. This also featured the recording artist Ashanti. I have not listened to her music, but I can say that I certainly hope her talent for music is a lot better than her talent for acting.

I just watched this movie on SciFi Channel and was impressed with it. The actors did a great job and were all very believable in their roles. The plot is pretty straightforward relating to surviving a major disaster. It has elements of a zombie movie too. There were several technical and tactical goofs and a major continuity error but I still enjoyed it.Some of the non-spoiler technical goofs are:The GPMG on top of the truck never had an ammunition can or belt in it. Magazine/cartridge pouches flat; common, at least put something in there!Tactical goofs were the typical splitting forces in a known hostile environment and not leaving someone on the truck MG when dismounted.The continuity goof would require a spoiler but it is pretty obvious when you watch the movie.I liked that the 'survivors/preppers' were the good guys. Overall, worth watching and kudos to all the young actors for a great job.

Terrible acting by people you actually don't necessarily want on TV. Embarrassing special effects not even expected on Syfy. Bumpy and partially broken plot, i.e. scenes don't connect. What really struck me was the obvious attempt to swap the gender roles, i.e. the girl officers played the strong and tough ones whilst the guys were dumb making all sorts of stupid mistakes and statements + going for the sucker moves. Even 10 years after a meteor hit really not so credible. This might have been a kinky idea for a 90s movie but in 2014 I would have expected the prdoucers to be a bit more sober about gender aspects...Bottom line is there was no way I could watch it to the end...
