THE COLONY - First Image from the Sci-Fi Thriller

 

Here's our first look at the post-apocalyptic sci-fi thriller The Colony, which stars Laurence Fishburne, Bill Paxton and Kevin Zegers. It's a small image, I know, but it gives us an idea of what the setting and tone of the film will be. 

Here's the synopsis:

Beneath the icy surface, survivors of Colony Seven struggle as food supplies dwindle and temperatures continue to drop. 

Plagued by illness and internal conflict, the colonists suspect the worst when they mysteriously lose contact with Colony Five - the only other known settlement. Sam, a strong-willed mechanic with a tragic past, joins a team headed up by Briggs on a dangerous expedition to find out what happened.  After a hellish trek, they discover a threat much worse than imagined, and now Colony Seven must win a savage battle to preserve the last of humanity.

Jeff Renfro wrote and directed the film. The story sounds decent, and it has a solid cast, so The Colony might actually turn out to be a pretty decent movie. I'll watch anything with Fishburne or Paxton in it, they tend to pick good, fun projects.
