Quotes

Amal: What did your elders teach you about the disease?
Dorel: That god created it as punishment for man's sins. The old world was full of greed and men created machines that got out of control and they meddled with nature, and only god could stop them.
Amal: Men were trying to perfect their own design. They found a way to bring extinct animals back to life, like the mammoth and the sloth that you hunt. The science also brought us the disease. It wasn't long before the whole world was infected.

User Reviews

Tip top Sci-fi

Here is a tip top made for TV Sci-Fi movie. The script is clever, the film belies it's budget looking fab with the South African locations and all the cast shine.The creature effects are excellent and the action gallops along with some style.I would of really liked to have seen this on a big cinema screen rather than my TV,big as it is, with the bloody adverts every 10 muns butting in.Another problem with watching films on TV here in the UK is the TV channel logo top right all the way through a film. Someone explain why? I know which station i am on. Anyway can't fault this film so it gets top marks from me mainly due to 60 years of not seeing this plot used before in the Sci-fi genre.Well worth your time or rent it without fear of the cost.
