There seems to be no more room in this serious world of ours for the likes of filmmakers like Neil Marshall. I’ll be honest and say that I truly didn’t like “Doomsday” in spite of its bloody homage to a number of classics. The big budget and the over-sexed Rhona Mitra proved almost nothing of his talents and if anything smothered whatever creative fusion that might have resulted from hybridizing “Aliens” with “Mad Max”. A sad chapter in this cult director’s career to say the least. But there may be hope just yet. Twist the clock back several years, all the way back to 2002 (jeez I’m feeling old), and we come up with something far more entertaining.
