A meteor crashes into the Earth. Marcus King (Kim Coates) tracks it and leads a group of people into the bunker facility. Some ten years later, the facility is failing and supplies are dwindling. Marcus' daughter Melissa King leads a squad to scavenge only to find murderous mutants and suspicious survivors.For some reason, the only capable actor, Kim Coates, disappears after the first five minutes. The fighting is weak. The acting is nothing special. It's low budget sci-fi TV. The mutants look cheesy. The production is strictly leftovers from other TV crews. They get to play around with a couple of sets but it's more sad than good camp.

Well. What could you say about movies likes this. There is a lot of unintentional humor, cheesy acting where the plot movies around with horrible cuts and really cheesy special effects. This is a pretty bad movie overall, you could tell from the start where they gun down people that you would be in for a really camp fest (which is not always something bad). As the movies progressed and i first saw the mutants i laughed my ass off (the unintentional humor). As our band of heroes comes into contact with the first people they have seen since they took shelter in the bunker ten years ago we can tell that they are up to no good (I have seen enough survival movies to know that if something seems to good to be true it probably is).This is where we laugh are asses off again. When the dude is about the get lucky the woman turns and bite his finger off while the rest of the town goes crazy. This is where the mutant king comes into play. Out of nowhere he shows sympathy for one human and fight of other mutants. As the brawl keeps on going the main characters screw up hard. The climax is just an explosion with some burning mutants. The ending was also cheesy with no real explanation how a certain character was still alive. If this was done with more humor you could pass it of as somewhat decent b-movie since the mutants just looked silly except for the king mutant. All in all it was a "So bad it's good" kind of movie, albeit in the lower spectrum of that kind of movies.

"I used to be an adventurer like you, then I took an arrow in the knee."That was the part that made me laugh so hard i fell out of my seat and made my dog go into a protection frenzy fit thinking i was attacked by ghosts or something and needed to be saved. Not those exact words, but anyone that plays Skyrim and watched this movie knows. Also the singing, to much hanging tree song.OK, so it's bad story wise, really bad, so many plot holes it's better to take an arrow to the knee then go through this again. That said, the filming is good, quality really surprised me, good camera work and they really did their best on using the scenics, to complement what could have been a good story, and succeeded on block bluster level, you have to give them credit for that. If they just put in a little more effort in the story. There is just to much left out for some scenes and lines to make any sense unless you fill in the blanks yourself keeping in mind that they simply skipped any chatter between characters between scenes to give a bit of depth.The actors individually all did a really great job with what they were given. There were a few cheesy bits, but all in all i cannot honestly say the acting was bad, the script was though.All in all it's B it's never going to be cult ever, but with some fantasy of your own to fill in some blanks it's very good to watch and enjoyable when you come home from the pub, with just enough alcohol to not fall asleep.

Okay the whole premise is rather out there but it is a watchable enough movie. The most interesting part of the plot is how some the female actors are the empowered ones. A bit of switch especially for a post apocalyptic world scenario. I definitely liked that aspect. So there is a group of underground survivors, some of whom must come out when they lose power. They run into the mutants but I don't understand some of the stuff that they do. I mean green eyes, green blood?? Then the mutant giant that saves the semi-little girl, talks to her intelligently, and then gets killed by the normo's. So the underground retreat is located and overrun by the mutant's, the survivors make it to a town that is suppose to be mutant clear. The squad that was sent out earlier has also found it. Now this is another area I don't understand, turns out the towns people are only part time mutants. They turn mutant only during the night, I guess some writer saw one too many vampire movies? Those that survive the mutants turning blow up the town with the mutants in it. Turns out there is a sanctuary called haven but is really Cheyenne. The remaining survivors make it there and all is well?? Ashanti has a small role as the Preacher. While she looks good her acting is wooden, IMO.
