In the future, after global warming, Earth is covered by ice and snow in an Ice Age. The survivors live in facilities underground named Colonies. When people from Colony 5 release a distress signal, the leader of Colony 7 Briggs organizes an expedition with Sam and Graydon to investigate what has happened to their acquaintances.

A collection of disparate genre parts that are presented with a noted lack of snark or irony.October 06, 2013
Rote sci-fi dogma fails this flick well before the finish line.September 19, 2013
Becomes yet another run-from-the-ghouls exercise, cheapening decent work by a good cast.September 24, 2013
Dull and formulaic, it's yet another wannabe post-apocalyptic thriller.January 11, 2014
Rather than watching tough survivors taking on a deadly foe, we are watching something more akin to a low achieving mouse trying to fight off a gang of militant carpet beetles.September 29, 2013
This sci-fi thriller makes us almost feel the frosty cold in our bones, thanks to cinematographer Pierce Gill's magic touch.September 20, 2013
The filmmakers' aversion to any hint of storytelling originality means that the main impression "The Colony" leaves is one of almost stupefying over-familiarity.October 14, 2013
[Blu-ray Review] A pretty standard post-apocalyptic thriller, economical but unsure of what it wants to be.September 19, 2013
The film strands its archetypal characters in a featureless danger zone and gives them overly familiar dialogue borrowed from a dozen other B-movies.September 20, 2013
A screaming, lunging, chomping chase movie that has nothing new to bring to a genre that just won't die.September 23, 2013
A zombie by any other name is still a zombie in this utterly routine horror pic.September 20, 2013
It's somewhat low-rent and thoroughly humorless - hey, the future's not funny - and, in the manner of the genre, adamantly bleak.
