In the 22nd century, seven explorers set out on a mission to earth's nearest sister planet, AURORA. Their mission - to survey and explore for future colonization. When their ship suddenly malfunctions, the crew is forced to crash land on the planet's surface, where crippling heat, poisonous water, and fierce storms threaten their lives at every turn. With a handful of supplies and little hope of rescue, their only option is a grueling four hundred mile trek to their ship's lost supply bunkers. To survive, the men will have to push their endurance to the limit and entrust their lives to a leader who will risk everything to succeed, no matter what the consequences.

Reviews

edwardrevans This is the worst film I have ever seen in my life and I seen plenty the only saving grace was that it was free with a magazine. From the off you see that the egg boxes and fairy lights have been used to decorate the set. Lots budget rubbish the sets were worse than the original star trek TV fair. As for the plot there is non just utter garbage just guys walking across desert all the time. Afterwards I figured that this is why like "The Riddle" it was a free give away because frankly this would never sell.I am even struggling to fill my mandatory 10 lines of text for the review and personally the magazine should be utterly ashamed of itself. If you are making a budget title you focus on dialogue as this costs nothing make it engaging for gods sake.

Rincewind Very few films I have ever seen have left me semi-conscious by the end. It really was that much of a struggle to stay awake & watch this drivel.Usually even a really bad film will have some entertaining feature, like really hammy acting or an insane plot.This film has nothing to redeem it whatsoever. The acting is awful, the plot completely pointless and the special effects are at least 20 years out of date. By the end I was just wishing that it would be over, but even this is drawn out, at only 87 minutes it's not one of the longest films in the world, yet the makers still found the need to pad it out with pointlessly long, lingering shots that do nothing whatsoever to improve the film.This story could have easily been told in a 45 minute short film.If you're considering watching this film then save yourself the time & effort to stay awake.

leevmlafn1 This is to the reviewer who mentioned that it was low budget and made on credits cards, so please give it its due. Sorry, that doesn't wash. I've seen other movies made on shoestring budgets that managed to be good despite their low budgets. And since most people won't know it was made on a shoestring budget, they only have the finished product to judge, and that seems to be lacking. Heck, Robt. Rodriguez made EL MARIACHI for $7000 (not including the soundtrack that now exists on the video; that was cleaned up by Columbia Pictures when they bought the rights, and spent $100,000 doing it) and look what he did; sometimes it's edited a bit too fast for me in one or two scenes)A movie lives or dies by what's on the screen, not the history behind the making of the movie.

tfalbb While I understand this was a low budget, independent film, it could have been better. The plot and dialogue served more to get from one end of the film to the other, rather than to engage the viewer into willing these people on. There was a feeling of inevitability rather than tension throughout.Most serious, in my eyes, was my inability to suspend disbelief. I find it impossible to imagine that five trained and, supposedly, intelligent people would attempt to walk 400 miles in the blazing daytime sun, rather than the cool of night.
