From IMDb:
In a not-too-distant future only a few homo sapiens are left. Struggling for survival they are forced to live from hunting the last remaining animals in the peripheral ruins of an advanced human civilization.
Dystopian tale initially delivered in rather disjointed fashion (most scene transitions are via black screen), not a problem in and of itself but it does also feel quite padded (both in terms of scenes and use of archive footage) whilst any effects are decidedly mixed (those managed digitally aren't too bad but when you can't even make a physical turd look realistic why even try?). The score is somewhat eclectic in places but for the most part is appropriate enough, the on-location filming is well suited and whilst dialogue is for the most part kept to a minimum the interactions between the extraterrestrials does irritate the more there is of it. Oddly watchable but far more akin to cheap tv fare than cinematic greatness.
