In reality, this low budget sci-fi alien movie would have been lost on webstreaming. But all of a sudden, the crew of the film have been in a few theatrical mega-hits and now this movie is getting a theatrical release in China.
But let’s be honest. It’s the kind of movie you want to watch a big screen anyway.
SYNOPSIS: In 2050, the Dishi Biotechnology Company hires the spaceship Thunder God to search for an alien creature called Bali in outer space. On their way back to Earth, the captain’s son Jamie accidentally releases Bali, who kills everyone on board. Only Jamie and the crew member Kirk survive.
20 years later, alien creatures keep invading Earth and injuring humans. Dr. Joy from the Dishi Biotechnology Company recognizes Jamie in an operation and takes him back to the laboratory. Kirk appears in the laboratory and cruelly tells Jamie how he used his curiosity to release Bali and kill the crew 20 years ago on the space station. At this time, the monster Bali breaks free and goes on a rampage in the laboratory base. Jamie wakes up from his nightmare and decides to take revenge.
A life-and-death battle for the fate of humanity begins!
