Great Little Film, April 5, 2010
This review is from: The Sky Has Fallen (DVD)
I enjoyed this movie a lot despite the low budget. The makeup work is incredible, and the acting is pretty solid. What really sold me on it though is the score and the swordplay. It's very bloody and really well done. I'm happy I bought this. It is a DVD-R, but the picture quality is very good, there's a nice 5.1 mix, and you get plenty of extras.

Worth picking up!, May 2, 2010
This review is from: The Sky Has Fallen (DVD)
Genre fans rejoice. There is hope for the future. It's not flawless, but this film delivers. I've always loved post-apocalyptic flicks (Mad Max anyone?), and this one certainly puts a new spin on it. When a plague decimates the population, hooded figures show up and start controlling the dead, using them to wipe out the survivors. A guy and a girl pair up to hunt down their master. Cue the romance and carnage.
The acting is a little stiff at times, but the two leads do a good job, and I like the fact they're unknowns. It makes everything more believable. The samurai-flavored influences were a cool touch too. Definitely recommended.

No Budget But Lots of Heart, April 21, 2010
This review is from: The Sky Has Fallen (DVD)
This isn't some glossy Hollywood production. It still looks great, but it has what those movies lack: heart. Plus, a good story, and the black robed demons are pretty creepy too. I didn't expect much, but in the end, I was really impressed especially for an indie. You get quite a lot of action too although the focus is on the two survivors' relationship, but there's plenty for fans of the red stuff. If you want to see something different especially for a pseudo-zombie flick (and the "zombies" look awesome by the way), check it out.
