Review of Hell (2011) by Vincent P — 15 Jan 2016

The plot this time around is that the sun has gone 10 degrees above it's core temperature which in turn scorches the Earth, and the world falls into anarchy, as survivors looks for a safe haven.

The film starts with one couple who we don't see again, then we join our main protagonists Phillip, Marie and Marie's little sister Leonie, along the way they pick up Tom. The latter two get kidnapped in the Hills Have Eyes and Wrong Turn fashion and it's up to Marie to overcome both the heat and kidnappers to rescue her sister.

This addition to the apocalypse genre is short, sharp and sweet. The acting is brilliant as the actors do a good job of making you care about pretty much stock characters. The look of the film is just the right side of bright and gritty.

I thoroughly enjoyed this film it was very gripping my only gripes were that the characters were pretty much stock that out with the sun being scorched it wasn't particularly original. The open ending means a sequel is possible with these same characters, while I would be receptive to a Hollywood remake, but then again this film is good enough that it doesn't need one.

I personally liked it, only you can decide if you will.
