Doomsday
It’s “Mad Max” meets “Escape From New York” meets “I Am Legend” in a bizarre, apocalyptic world where Scotland has been walled off to prevent the spread of a deadly virus. An elite team is sent in to retrieve a possible cure. The movie is an homage to the “Road Warrior” and Snake Plissken. Director/writer Neil Marshall has recreated his favorite iconic images from these characters’ movies. If you don’t mind the blood and gore, you enjoy this action packed thrill ride into the future. There is a potential sequel written all over the ending. It is another one of Alien’s guilty pleasures.
Alien gives it 3 “another world” stars out of 4.
