MonstersIf you haven’t seen the 2010 film Monsters, it’s well worth your while. Essentially a twisted kind of road travel movie, it follows a journalist ordered to escort his his rich employer’s daughter out of Mexico and to the United States border. There’s only one drawback, and that would be the monsters. The movie is about six years after a NASA deep-space probe crashed again to Earth, wearing alien life that has since advanced and tailored, leaving a massive portion of northern Mexico beneath quarantine. It was a cool, small-budget flick that capped things off with some actually cool creature design, and it gave writer/director Gareth Edwards the industry cred to get the activity helming the Godzilla reboot. While he’s busy with the Big Green Guy, the franchise is continuous without him in Monsters: The Dark Continent, which will it appears be “more of a war movie.”

Speaking to Metro, actor Joe Dempsie (Game of Thrones) claimed that the sequel will be more of a war movie than the first movie. “It’s set a few years after the first movie. Monsters had been eradicated from the U.S. but not from other portions of the world … It’s a metaphor for the U.S.’s dating with the Middle East.” Hopefully the script won’t be too on the nose with that metaphor. Here’s the first official synopsis for the sequel:

Seven years on from the occasions of Monsters, and the ‘Infected Zones’ have unfold worldwide. Humans have been knocked off the best of the meals chain, with disparate communities struggling for survival. American soldiers are being despatched in another country to give protection to US pursuits from the Monsters, however the war is a long way from being received.

Noah, a haunted soldier with a number of tours below his belt, is shipped on a venture: an American soldier has gone rogue deep in the Infected Zone, and Noah should succeed in him and take him out. But when Noah’s unit and shipping are destroyed, he finds himself with simplest a young and inexperienced cadet for corporate – the brother of the guy Noah has been sent to kill.

The two squaddies should pass on a life-altering adventure through the dark heart of monster territory, accompanied by means of a younger native woman to lead them. By the time the 3 of them achieve their objective, they will were compelled to confront the worry that the true monsters on the planet may not be alien in any case.

With Edwards having moved on to Godzilla, The Dark Continent is as an alternative under the steering of a chap named Tom Green (not that one), whose resume is beautiful sparse at this point. He has essentially directed a number of episodes of the British kids-with-powers show Misfits. Hey, if he does neatly with this one possibly he’ll get to direct a reboot of Mecha-Godzilla.

Monsters: The Dark Continent is currently filming in Jordan. There’s no reliable unencumber date as of yet. In the imply time, you can take a look at the trailer for Monsters underneath, or watch the full movie on Netflix Instant.
