It is about the future of 2707. Due to a war, a sleeping machine was accidentally awakened. The sole purpose of this machine from outer space is to turn all humans on Earth into alien species. Hunter, who survived the attack of the mutant monster, met Samuel, the leader of the "Brotherhood", who owned an ancient book "The Chronicle". The book predicts the emergence of mutant creatures, and a group of people "transmitters" will eventually destroy them. Hunter joined Samuel's team, and a group of people ventured into the center of the dark world to save the world. They not only have to fight against a large number of gangsters, but also have to face the attack of undead mutant monsters...

If the word “excellent” is considered to be too acclaimed for this film, then it is very rare to shoot the gorgeous apocalyptic chaos with a B-level film budget, at least it surpasses the "Doomsday Invasion" in terms of visual effects, and the latter is in B The grade film should be a big production. It can be said that this is a dark science fiction movie with a weird style. Although the first half of the movie is a bit dull, the second half is indeed a rare boutique in recent science fiction movies. Not only is the action hot, but a group of people planted bombs inside the machine. The plot is also very relaxed, and the picture also has an obvious game style. Compared with some movies adapted from games, this movie can actually be adapted into a game.

To say that this movie has a different style mainly refers to its picture, the color is basically gray, and the first half of the story is dull, impatient people will become drowsy after watching it for a long time. Although the scenes of the movie are hundreds of years later, the war at the beginning of the movie looks a bit like World War I. Trenches, barbed wire, tanks, artillery, etc., apart from the amazing power of the weapons, there is not much to do with the First World War. the difference.

For fans of science fiction movies, this movie is worth watching. Of course, you have to be patient and survive the first 40 minutes. l
