Synopsis
From the Producers of RESIDENT EVIL, PANDORUM stars Dennis Quaid and Ben Foster as two astronauts who awaken in a hyper-sleep chamber aboard a spacecraft.
It's pitch black, they are disoriented, and the only sound is a low rumble and creak from the belly of the spacecraft. They can't remember anything - who are they, what is their mission? The only way out of the chamber is through a dark and narrow airshaft.
Corporal Bower (Ben Foster), the younger of the two, crawls inside, while the other, Lt Payton (Dennis Quaid), stays behind for guidance on a radio transmitter. As Bower ventures deeper and deeper into the ship, he discovers that he and Payton are not alone. Slowly the spacecraft's shocking and deadly secrets come unravelled, and the astronauts realize that the survival of mankind hinges on their actions.
Based on a story by Travis Milloy and Christian Alvart with a screenplay by Travis Milloy, PANDORUM is directed by Christian Alvart and produced by Paul W S Anderson, Jeremy Bolt and Robert Kulzer.
