Alien on acid

Rating: 10/10 (18 February 2000)

Pitch Black is definitely not a beach resort for those people don't like beach resorts. Substitute sand for space, and you have Alien reincarnation, which in my books IS a good thing.
The cinematography, camera angles, colours and effects used in Pitch Black are stunning. Some wacked Australian perspective. Radha Mitchell who was so amazing in High Art is the curvaceous crewmate thrust into the reluctant role of Captain which she continually denies to be. I will not go into plot details here, but as a photographer I loved the various lighting.
