The Drift

Backyard Productions have been around since 1994, they made uber low budget shorts and parodys and had never made a feature film until The Drift.

On a budget of just £5000 an attempt to make a scifi movie on this scale was arguably foolish but they have knocked it out of the park. For it's budget the film looks outstanding, the score is brilliant and most of the unknown cast do a decent enough job.

Telling the story of a crew venturing into a space graveyard but becoming under attack from angry cannibal survivors.

Okay, the story is a bit muddled in places and ultimately this British movie is badly flawed but it can't be denied that what they have acomplished here is nothing short out outstanding.

Backyard Productions need to try this again with a bigger budget as The Drift shows that these people know how to make movies.

The Good:

Looks amazing for its budget

Well edited

Beautifully scored

The Bad:

A lot is left unexplained

Action scenes are really quite poor

Things I Learnt From This Movie:

Apparently in space people CAN hear you scream
