Two youths struggle to survive in a world ruined by aliens.

A terrible movie, even and perhaps especially for science fiction, alien invasion or ruined world movie fans. It’s slow and plodding, with a crappy plot, and has no real “feel” to it.

A world broken by plague sends a team back in time to prevent the virus from spreading.

It’s better than a B-movie but definitely not A-quality. I would class this as a good TV-movie. Worth a watch if you’re into science fiction.

  • In the year 2204

The surviving humans of a war against angels garrison themselves, and one of them is said to be their saviour.

Recommended. It’s got a lot of religion in it, but it’s generic.

I never did take notes for this. I probably should have. Maybe if I re-watch this series I will.

  • Cancelled

A one-room horror where angels descend to destroy all of mankind because god left, but a baby is to be the saviour of all mankind.

Meh. This isn’t a particularly good movie.

Dominion – (2014 show) is based on Legion. I wouldn’t consider this movie mandatory viewing before watching Dominion. In fact, I would recommend against viewing this movie because the series is so much better.

Survivors of a plague that wipes out most humans make a desperate bid to undo it all by sending a man back in time.

I suppose it’s inevitable that a television series based around time travel will get convoluted really quickly because they stretch things out. Still, this doesn’t feel very good to me.

A woman, dying in a macabre soap opera, is filmed by a man with cybernetic eyes.

Great movie, but the main actor’s performance is absolutely horrible.

  • Based on The Unsleeping Eye – (1973 book), by David G. Compton

    • aka The Continuous Katherine Mortenhoe
