    Storyline

    Edit
    On the last day of the first manned mission to Mars, a crew member of Tantalus Base believes he's made an historic discovery; fossilised evidence of bacterial life. Unwilling to let the relief crew claim the glory, he disobeys orders to pack up, and goes out on an unauthorised expedition to collect further samples. But a routine excavation turns to disaster, when the porous ground collapses, and he falls into a deep crevice and near certain death. His devastated colleagues attempt to recover his body. However, when another vanishes, they begin to realise; the life-form they've discovered is highly dangerous to all human life. —AnonymousB

    • Trivia
      Romola Garai, who has appeared in more than a few period pieces, stated that "wearing a space suit is exactly the same as wearing a corset. It's equally uncomfortable".
    • Goofs
      When the crew are out on the surface of Mars you can clearly see blue sky and clouds reflected in their helmet visors.
    • Quotes

      [last lines]

      Vincent Campbell: There's a pretty good chance I'm infected too. If that's the case, I've got just enough fuel left to drop out of orbit and burn up in the atmosphere. At least it'll be quick. You should get this in about 15 minutes, so, uh, I guess I'll be waiting. Five eleven Zulu, Aurora lander out.

    Low budget space oddity
    A decent cast and premise spoiled by terrible camera work and strange editing. About half way through the whole film stops making sense and it looks and feels rushed. Maybe they ran out of money and cobbled it together as best they could.
