Moontrap: Target Earth Movie Download

8 / 10

Nifty sci-fi item
Sassy young linguist Scout (a spunky and appealing portrayal by Sarah Butler) gets a job translating symbols on an ancient spacecraft that was left behind by a long gone advanced human civilization. Scout then gets transported to the moon where she uncovers a heretofore unknown link to mankind’s past and the evolution of the human race.

Director/co-writer Robert Dyke relates the enjoyable story at a snappy pace, maintains a serious tone throughout, and takes time to flesh out the characters. Moreover, Dyke and co-writer Tex Ragsdale bring a thoughtful quality to the compelling premise which in turn gives this picture extra depth and substance. The solid acting by the game cast keeps things on course: Damon Dayoub as the hunky Daniel Allen, Charles Shaughnessy as evil rich jerk Richard Kentral, Niki Spiridakos as the mysterious Myra, Jennifer Kincer as lethal flunky Nicole, and Chris Newman as the nerdy Carter. The special effects ain’t half bad considering the modest budget. Daniel Peter Kolton’s moody score and Lon Stratton’s sharp cinematography are both up to par. A neat little indie B-flick.Read More
