Escape From Area 51 - DVD

ESCAPE FROM AREA 51 begins when a group of teenage conspiracy theorists try to raid the infamous military base, Area 51, in the Nevada desert. No one gets in - but someone gets out. Sheera (D'Errico), a sexy alien warrior, uses a power glitch to escape from captivity at Area 51. Her escape using a portal gun sets off an energy signature which attracts the attention of her arch-rival in space Sklarr (Browning). Sheera must now elude an Area 51 scientist, as well as Sklarr, to rescue her fellow warrior and find her way back to her planet

SPECIAL ANAMORPHIC WIDESCREEN EDITON As far as we know, this is the first time this great space opera film has been available in an anamorphic English language edition. And it's just pure science fiction from start to finish. The cinematography is outstanding with a nice contrast between the cold, vast deepness of space and the gray, finely-sculpted interior of the spaceship. Von Nutter plays an interplanetary news reporter who spends most of his time annoying the ship's captain and crew. Things take a sudden change, though, when he's put into a position of saving the world from Alpha Two, a runaway space station that's on a collision course with Earth. The relationship between the spaceman Savage and news reporter Von Nutter, is well developed and most engaging. Very atmospheric with a terrific '50s sci-fi stock music score.

From The Vicious Brothers, the creators of Grave Encounters, comes a pulse-pounding encounter of the deadly kind. Still reeling from her parents' divorce, April (Brittany Allen, Dead Before Dawn) is dragged by her boyfriend (Freddie Stroma, Harry Potter & The Half-Blood Prince, Pitch Perfect), and a group of his friends back to the cabin where she spent summers as a child. Her trip down memory lane takes a dramatic and terrifying turn when a fireball descends from the sky and explodes in the nearby woods. The group venture out to the crash site and discover the remnants of a ship from another planet, along with footprints that suggest it's alien occupants are still alive. They soon find themselves caught in the middle of something bigger and more terrifying than anything they could ever imagine. Also starring Jesse Moss (Ginger Snaps), Emily Perkins (Ginger Snaps, Juno), Gil Bellows (House at the End of the Street) and Michael Ironside (X-Men First Class, Terminator Salvation), Extraterrestrial's mind-blowing premise is delivered with 'retro shocks that straddle the worlds of Steven Spielberg and George Romero [and] nods to the conspiracy business of The X-Files' (Empire Magazine)!
