Description:
From the director of The Descent comes an action-packed thrill-ride through the beating heart of hell! To save humanity from an epidemic, an elite fighting unit must battle to find a cure in a post-apocalyptic zone controlled by a society of murderous renegades. Loaded with ferocious fights and high-octane chases, Doomsday grabs you right from the start, and doesn't let go till its explosive end!

Amazon.com:
Loud, violent, and proudly derivative, the post-apocalyptic action-thriller Doomsday is the latest from UK cult director Neil Marshall, who impressed horror fans with his previous efforts, Dog Soldiers and The Descent. Both pictures established Marshall as a director with a knack for reinventing well-worn genre pictures, but here, he seems more interested in stitching together favorite scenes and elements from established horror and science-fiction films. Escape from New York is the main source for Doomsday, though there are plenty of nods to The Road Warrior and its multitude of Italian-made carbon copies, as well as the zombie/plague subgenre; the lovely but impassive Rhona Mitra is the Snake Plissken-esque loner sent by police (represented by Bob Hoskins) to infiltrate Scotland, which has descended into anarchy following a viral outbreak. The disease has surfaced in London (now a walled city), and Mitra is dispatched to find a scientist who may possess a cure. Marshall's vision of Scotland in ruins brings together the punk/modern primitive costume design of George Miller's Mad Max trilogy with some eclectic homegrown elements (knights on horseback defending a gang leader's castle), and while these touches are novel, the picture as a whole should ring overly familiar to any viewer who's spent time in the exploitation trenches during the past 25 years. Younger and less discerning audience members will undoubtedly enjoy the plentiful violence and gore, as well as the unbridled performances of the supporting cast, especially stuntwoman/actress Lee-Ann Liebenberg as the heavily tattooed Viper. --Paul Gaita

Average Rating: out of 5 stars

Rating: 3 out of 5 stars - surprisingly fun, rent-worthy
I was surprised by how much I ended up liking this movie. Sure it is formulaic, and you kind of get the feeling you've seen it before, but for what it is, this movie is fun, and good 'escapism.' As mentioned, like others in its genre, a lot of it is pretty familiar territory, but unlike many others in its genre, the acting is decent, some pretty original action scenes, and it is pretty enjoyable throughout (as opposed to others that are more of a 'cool scene' once in a while). I wouldn't buy it, ... Read More


Rating: 2 out of 5 stars - Ultimately Offers Nothing Memorable
I wasn't expecting much when I rented Doomsday given all the mediocre reviews in comparison to Marshall's previous efforts, and my preconceived notions proved entirely correct. Every other reviewer hit the nail on the head in stating that this movie borrows from a slew of other post-apocalyptic films that did a much better job in contributing to the genre. There are no memorable characters nor are there any exceptionally cool scenes, which are the two main characteristics that draw me to these types ... Read More


Rating: 3 out of 5 stars - Unbelievably derivative and silly...and also a pure BLAST!
By no stretch of the imagination is DOOMSDAY a good movie. It has a ridiculous plot, over-the-top gore, and virtually no discernible character development. Yet it is so juiced up with antic energy that most of it actually ends up being a complete blast.

The movie begins in the present day, where a horrific virus is spreading across Scotland like any horrific virus in any of a million previous sci-fi flicks. In an effort to stop the spread, England manages to construct an impenetrable ... Read More


Rating: 1 out of 5 stars - Rubbish
What a waste of money! I had a hard time thinking of a worst film, but still couldn't come up with anything. The plot is ridiculous, the acting is laughable and the directing is that of an 8-year old who just got a video camera for present. I was desperately looking for a comic relief that would turn this film into a parody of the action and epic genre but oh no, the (obviously) underage director of "doomsday" took his work all too seriously. "Mad Max" meets "28 Days Later", "The Lord Of The Rings" meets ... Read More


Rating: 3 out of 5 stars - Doomsday
I liked it. I'm not sure why more didn't considering it's another "Road Warrior" movie with a touch of "Resident Evil" thrown in. As for being upset because it seemed to borrow from other movies, any true movie buff will tell you lots of movies borrow from other movies or books and there aren't that many new stories seen lately. Decent acting, great action, and good music make this well worth at least a rental. I plan to get a copy myself. A top woman cop is sent to find how a group has survived a virus that ... Read More
