Storyline

Set in a near future, technology-reliant society is creating killing machines. Against this backdrop an elite Marine unit is helicoptered in to a remote, off-the-grid island training facility, to test the capabilities of the latest prototypes. They set up positions and make short work of the AI targets in the killing field. However, overnight their sentry goes missing, and when they find the corpse the next day they find themselves in the killing field and the tables have turned. The Marines fight to survive on an island that is overrun by an enemy intelligence far beyond their predecessors, which learns from their every move.

Trivia

Before leaving the base, a smartpad reads that the destination is the CHUCKCHI SEA, an area north of the Bering Straight, and geo-coordinates are for near the west-end of Herald Island. Herald Island is Russian and devoid of trees.

Goofs

No aircraft designer would put a troop/cargo door right next to engine exhaust. Especially for combat troop drops in the field, this could prove very inconvenient or even deadly. The door should have been in the back, away from the engines. Example: 11:40.

User Reviews

Worth the watch

If you're like me, you are very leery of low budget sci-fi and horror films that are written and directed by the same person who is relatively unknown and not yet an established filmmaker. More times than not, the script and acting are embarrassingly amateur and a complete waste of your time. Well, this film is a definite exception to that generalization. Apart from the lame title, this film is actually quite entertaining and worth the watch. The special effects are quite impressive and the acting and plot is good enough to keep your interest from beginning to end. If you are a fan of movies like Skyline, Predator, and Terminator, you will probably enjoy this film.
