This is Science Fiction. But it's not Interstellar, 2001 or anything similar to those movies. No it's low budget. And considering the budget this had, I have to admit I was really impressed. The look of the movie is great (Blu Ray) and the acting is not bad either. There is not much story, but what you get is enough to hold your attention.
The movie does get violent though, so it's not for the squeamish. Twists can be foreseen, but it's the way everything is handled and I'm willing to stress that out again. Set design, lighting and everything else is pretty solid, which adds to a great look. The movie can be fun, if you are willing to accept a few slight missteps here and there. It's not a classic or anything, but it's way better than a lot of other movies that try and you can see the purity and passion they put into it

What the Heck is This?
A special forces unit, sent to infiltrate Pine Gap Australia's top secret underground military compound, comes under attack from unknown forces.
Terrible effects, little use of science fiction in the plot, and just your average sort of experience makes this a typical lower budget action film. I am sorry, Australia, but you are going to have to try harder than this. We are already flooded with worthless films in America, and you cannot compete with the sheer number of throwaway pieces of trash we produce. (I am not proud of this.)
Most unfortunate, someone named this film "Crawlspace". While that may be a valid name for what takes place in the majority of this film, it is already the name of a better than average 1980s slasher film. If you are going to reuse a name, pick one that you can actually improve upon.
Not too bad.
This is an Australian Sci-Fi/Horror movie that has elements of Alien, Species and Scanners. Set in the Australian equivalent to Area 51 known as Pine Gap it involves a team of elite soldiers being sent in to see why the compound has come under attack, and to save the scientists still there. This is a pretty good little horror in my opinion. Although the story has been done before it takes a few different sub-plots from other films and melds them together making it an original movie in some ways. I watched it and liked it, yes it wasn't brilliant, but I enjoyed it to the point that if there is a sequel I'd be happy to see it also. I give this movie a 7 out of 10.
