Plot: people on Mars find life in the form of a bacteria that infects people and turns them into crazy, zombie types.
This unoriginal plot introduces us to a Martian research base, where eight people are about to conclude their mission. But of course, they find some bacteria that original causes two of their disappearances only for them to later reappear as fast, miraculously strong zombies. For being a zombie movie, it’s also very psychological. And it’s creepy as hell in parts. Also, everyone is up for grabs in this movie, so get attached to know one because I did and it didn’t work out to well for me.
Bad things about this movie: there was no point. People aren’t always likable. There’s no Freddy Claws. It’s not truly fun to watch. I mean, it’s interesting, but not fun. And the ending sucks. Good things about this movie: the cast was amazing. The effects were stunning. I think it honestly had a lot going for it, but it just lost it in the end.
I suppose I could list my favorite movies here, but instead I'll give you a strange glimpse into what makes me TaraRomero.
1. I love comic books. I'm particularly into anything X-Men related and everything Harley Quinn.
2. My celebrity crush is Chris Evans (AKA Captain America). He's even more political than I am and he's not afraid to show it, plus he's really, really hot.
3. I love baseball and more importantly the Boston Red Sox, even though I've never even been to Boston. LOL
4. If I won the lottery tomorrow, after paying off my debts, I'd buy a smallish house somewhere in Southern California. I have got to get out of Texas.
5. My cartoon hero is Tina Belcher. Her and I share a soul.
6. I've been rescuing dogs since I was a teenager and firmly believe that fur babies belong inside and on the furniture.
7. I'm very much addicted to Hallmark Channel. I love their sappy movies, especially the Christmas ones.
8. I have 2 tattoos. An "E" on my ankle for my first lost fur baby. And a ladybug on my wrist named George after George Romero told me he liked it. May he RIP.
9. I'm a bit of a night owl. Not that I go out a lot, it's just that I prefer to be up at night and asleep during the day. I'm a vampire like that.
10. I have an unhealthy relationship with potato chips. My favorite are Herr's Sour Cream & Onion.
