Clonehunter (2012)
Sure the budget is super low, but...
If you're a true Sci Fi fan, you've probably watched lower.
The acting is credible and the story worthwhile. I enjoyed this film for its bleak nature.
Interesting from start to the finish. The plot has depth and the acting is generally good. For a low budget flick the Blade Runner style atmosphere was well created, both in setting, and dialogue.
Embrace the low budget Sci Fi - you're always guaranteed no regurgitated Hollywood pap.
Clone Hunter is a very good science fiction thriller that holds up well. Simply put, a science fiction film made with more HEART than budget.
Worth watching.
Silent Sam (2009)
Unconventional 'B' movie action film
Whether you like it or not, Silent Sam is certainly an unconventional low budget 'B' movie action film.
Sam Ramirez is a very emotionally repressed cop who doesn't talk much. However, he is capable of great bursts of calm unemotional violence which makes him a dangerous man to tangle with.
During a routine stakeout, he leaves his partner alone - while he checks on his terminally ill wife. In the interim, his partner tries to makes the bust on her own. It goes bad!
Sam arrives just in time to kill everyone in sight and make a promise to his partner; just before she dies in his arms. The guilt this unleashes in Sam only increases his sense of responsibility. Absconding with the drug money form the bust, Ramirez decides to make his wife's last days – happy ones.
There is an immense magnetizing sadness to this characters life, which makes you want to keep watching.
Production values are low, but the action and story carries you through.
