Dark Sci-Fi Swiss Style

Cargo (2009) Movie, Sci-Fi Movie News — By endymi0n on April 6, 2009

cargo2Swiss filmmaker Ivan Engler brings us another promising European dark corridor spaceship creature feature.

No trailer yet. It’s promised soon. There are never enough Alien style movies. Below, all the gory details.

Since the biosphere collapsed on Earth most of humanity lives in space, inhabiting hopelessly overcrowded space stations. The only hope to escape from the chaos is RHER: A paradise-planet 5 light-years from Earth.

The story of CARGO takes place on rusty space-freighter KASSANDRA on its way to Station 42. The young medic LAURA is the only one awake on board while the rest of the crew lies frozen in hibernation sleep. Only in 4 months will Laura’s shift be over. During her daily patrols, through the eerily empty ship, LAURA begins to get the feeling that she is not alone on-board. A discovery mission in the dark and ice-cold cargo hold ends in catastrophe. The remainder of the crew is awakened. A cat and mouse game begins in which nothing is what it seems. What lies hidden in the strange freight containers and who, or what, is also on-board?

Beautiful. It’s a winner. The Europeans really know how to make their Sci-Fi arty. Arty, dark corridors, space chicks and hopefully, the barely seen, but clearly heard sound of hard claws on bare metal. Thanks QuietEarth.

    Is this based on the Michael Moorcock story “Black Corridor”? – It sounds very close to it.
