#Fortress2 (2000)
Dir. by #GeoffMurphy
7 years after the original Fortress movie, Brennick along with the rebels are captured and sent to a new, more sophisticated fortress prison, in outer space.
"[The early pioneers of science] ... dedicated their lives to driving back the frontiers of knowledge, for the benefit of mankind.
But in the modern world that's no longer valid. Because now they push back the frontiers of science for the benefit of the joker that's paying, and no one else. And the joker that's paying makes sure that no one else can have that knowledge."
#GeoffMurphy, Director, #TheQuietEarth

Serge Bodnarchuk of Cold Crash Pictures joins us to explore... New Zealand! Yes, Dan's homeland – but it's a bizarre alternate universe version of NZ, and not just because it's 1985. Zac Hobson wakes up naked in a motel bed to discover he may be the last man on Earth. He gets to engage in a few fantasies: driving a train, moving into a mansion, running rampant through a church wearing a nightie and brandishing a shotgun... until he meets Joanne and Api. The three quickly discover the commonality between them that could unlock the mystery of the quiet Earth, but is Zac secretly responsible for what happened? And is it going to happen again and erase them all? We wander this largely forgotten land to decide if this little-seen sci-fi gem from down under should be out and proud in its nightie!
