A good hearted Sci Fi film

Rating: 10/10 (16 June 1999)

I just came from a free screening of this film and I must say I was pleased with it. It's a story about a ship transporting people to a distant planet. Just to tell you of some of the characters there's a convicted killer, a bounty hunter, the ships captain, a kid, ect. Well the ship gets into trouble and is forced to crash land on a dead wasteland of a planet which has three suns and no night. After the character introductions (which I'm not going into because there's too many and their pretty deep characters which you can't explain that easy) one of them is killed by these strange underground creatures. They learn that the creatures can only survive in darkness and figure that as long as they stay out in the eternal day of this planet their safe. Well they thought wrong. Soon they discover a mining facility that is deserted. They find out that everybody in this place was killed by those underground things. To make matters worse they also find out that an eclipse is coming and is going to cover the planet in complete darkness. Well, it does, and thousands, yes, thousands of these very scary and violent creatures take to the sky and start to hunt them down. Do they survive or do they perish? I'll just say that it's worth the price of admission to find out. There's great characters, super special effects and a great story in this film that will make it a sure hit.
