Alien at the Movies

Red River Road

This film begins with family of four, husband, wife, & their 2 sons, living in isolation due to some internet/on-line virus infecting people. We see the paranoia effects on the family living on daily supplies delivered in a barcoded box. As the days pass, we learn a little more about the situation like how the family is trapped at their summer home. However, the story becomes quirkier as the end approaches. This low budget film is effective in recreating our own recent pandemic fears & uncertainties.

Alien gives it 2½ “memory” stars out of 4.
