• Legion (2010)

    I seem to recall being asked to promote this one on my website back in
    the day. But had heard bad reviews, so never actually bothered to watch it.

    However, it popped up in my Netflix suggestions the other day and
    curiousity got the better of me, so decided to give it a go.

    A group of strangers at a remote truck stop out in the desert find
    themselves fighting off attacks from demonicly possessed zombies, after
    an enigmatic stranger named Michael turns up warning them of impending doom.

    Seems these demons want something with the young waitress there, who is
    heavily pregnant. And the motley band of survivors find themselves
    fighting for their lives.

    Actually quite enjoyed this one, kind of like a cross between The Evil
    Dead and From Dusk till Dawn (I was also reminded of "Feast", which had
    a kind-of similar premise).

    Had a surprisingly good cast too, including Dennis Quaid, Charles S
    Dutten and Kevin Durrand.

    Worth a watch I feel.

    Always been a sucker for these angel movies. (Was going to put a spoiler warning but he's got fucking wings in the poster).

    Never knew there was a TV spin-off of this.

    Nah, apparently called DOMINION. Starring Alan Dale AND Anthony Head. How is this not the new GoT?

    I gave it another watch when it recently became available on Netflix
    streaming but it didn't much change my opinion. The film is alright, not
    as special as the cast and premise promise.
