I'm willing to give the new sci-fi horror movie LIFE a chance. For sure. I miss big-budget, R-rated sci-fi-horror. I can't complain. That said, more and more the film is looking to be a true ALIEN rip-off.
Is that too harsh? I'll let you decide. Check out the new red-band trailer below and let me know if what movie (other than GRAVITY) keeps springing to your mind.
On the point of the red-band-ness of this new trailer, it seems to be the only NSFW bits are a few f-bombs through this way and that. I guess it isn't true what they say, "in space no one can hear you say the word f*ck a bunch of times to prove you're an edgier sci-fi flick than GRAVITY or PASSENGERS."
LIFE synopsis via Wikipedia:
A crew aboard the International Space Station performs a successful capture of a space probe returning from Mars with a sample inside. The crew is tasked with studying the sample, which may be the first proof of extraterrestrial life. However, the study eventually backfires as the organism gains intelligence. Trapped aboard the ISS with the rapidly-growing organism, the crew must find out how to kill it before it manages to escape and decimate Earth.
