An underrated sci-fi thriller, for sure. I rarely meet people who have heard of this movie but I own the bluray and love introducing it to them. Glad you liked it.
I downloaded it when it came out.
One saturday morning SyFy channel played it and the was the first time I remember anything about it. Pretty good though.
I think it's very rated. It's crap.
@@thewinner7382 100% agreed lol 😆....alltho I still watched this reaction cos I like both these guys
I love the premise but I recognize that it has some really big flaws. It’s still leagues better than the new Alien movies.
This is the spiritual sequel to "Event Horizon".
This movie almost got a sequel of it's own BUT They didn't know where to go after they got to land.
It's a good movie.
I was just going to chime in to say that it's in the category of "underrated scifi gems" like Event Horizon.
Pitch Black was also in this category for a few years, until Vin Diesel became Vin Diesel...
It's nowhere near the level of Event Horizon and its not like that's exactly an amazing movie.
Hollywood is obsessed with sequels, here's one I would aprove.
@@thewinner7382 thanks for chiming in, Comic Book Guy.
@@thomasharris4942 Anyone who thinks a movie is not good is comic book guy now?
Never thought about it before, but when she said "descent in space" i was like yeah thats pretty much it. 🤔
"Its not as creepy as event horizon" is kind of like saying getting one of your legs sawed off isn't as bad as getting both legs sawed off. Lol
Very impressed you 2 figured out one of the huge twists before the reveal, no way I was even close to that realization on my first watch.
Payton/Gallo had no mind-powers, he just went crazy during his shift as he was there to hear about Earth's fate. He killed his own team and started waking up colonists and played god with them, banishing folks into the depths of the ship where they hunted each other for survival. This likely caused pandorum in them as well.
After years of doing it, went back to hypersleep in Payton's pod.
Jump forward closer to 900 years later, he wakes up with Bowers and since they both suffer from amnesia due to long hypersleep, they both assume he's Payton.
The mutants are just descendants of the people Gallo had woken up, who's evolution was sped up by the enzyme given to the colonists so they adapt to the conditions they're thrown into.
Pandorum is some sort of psychosis, some space madness.
Gallo suffered from it, Bower was dealing with the early signs of it.
The enzyme is the worst thing about this movie.
It's about as mcguffiney a plot device as you could think of.
@@mnomadvfx Idk, I thought it was a pretty okay explanation. It's bad science yeah but not nearly as immersion-breakingly bad science as most stories get away with. I think it's a bit odd though that they didn't just roll with the fact that a nuclear reactor was involved and claim that spending lots of time close to a radiation source was what caused the rapid weird evolution, since that seems like a pretty easy freebie of an explanation 🤷♂️
@@ItsAsparageese I don't see how's its bad science, it's 100 plus years into the future, who knows what kind of medical technology we'd have then.
@@ThePartisan13 I wouldn't be surprised if we have dramatic adaptogens in the fairly near future, but "enzyme" is a pretty specific term and doesn't really mesh logically with the type of gene therapies and such that would be involved with the type/timescale of evolution we're talking about. They'd be using words more like "mRNA" or maybe figurative code-related terms, like calling it a patch, if I had to guess. Or perhaps some kind of very weird steroid.
An enzyme by definition is some sort of catalyst, meaning it adds efficiency to some other reaction; it's not a complete cause of reaction on its own. So the idea that we could just inject some catalyst, and then undergo either epigenetic processes that weren't already happening or undergo normal processes but at wildly faster rates ... it just ain't logical, because it's not the right tool. It's more like throwing soap on a car when the goal is to remove a bolt deep in the engine; you can use the world's most advanced soap but it won't get into the inside for you haha. It's not about limitations of tech, so much as limitations on definitions. Any agent we could inject that would have direct effects on gene synthesis (by itself, anyway) would almost definitely never be called an enzyme. 🤷♂️
I hope that's useful clarification! Absolutely love your optimism about the ability of science to make crazy stuff happen, though, I'm absolutely with you on that. I'm just nitpicky about accuracy of terms lol
@@ItsAsparageese it might have been both - the radiation from the reactor was causing changes yet the enzyme was stopping the damage to the DNA from just killing them instead repairing and adjusting it each time it was damaged again meaning that by the time the first child was born their parents DNA had already undergone many generations worth of recombining and change from the repair and adjustment cycles which would have greatly sped up the amount of adaption each generation would undergo as time isn't the really factor for evolution but the number of generations.
Shout out to Markus for consistently picking underrated but great films.
He needs to pick poughkeepsie tapes and lake mungo for sure
I like the reveal that they were under water and not in starless space at the end. :)
Thank, thank, thank you for reacting to this! It's such an underrated Sci-Fi gem. The twist ending always horrifies me.
One of my absolute favorites.
Totally agree.
Never gets the praise it deserves.
@Lionhunter SS sunshine is overrated.... a third act this bad shouldn't get the praise it does on every sci-fi movie thread
Over the years since Pandorum came out it has been getting way more popular. It will be rebooted or something more will become of it. Give it time.
oh my god, someone is actually reacting to this movie. awesomeeee
Guy waking up and immediately gets eaten is horrible. “Who am I and why am I being murdered” just terrible.
This movie is absolutely awesome btw.
Yes,a horrible way to go.
That protective layer is actually extra skin cause while in cryo sleep your skin doesn’t stop growing
The Agriculture character is played by Cung Le a very VERY good MMA fighter.
Ben Foster is such a great actor.
The twist really got me, but then, I liked how Dennis Quaid portrayed Peyton as well as the switch when Peyton remembers hes Gallo.
I was baked out of my mind the first time I watched this movie.
I never tried figuring it out, just went along for the ride.
So when the big twist they'd been on Tanis for several hundred years already was revealed my mind was insanely blown. Like, I couldn't fathom it at all.
Loved the movie ever since and so glad a react channel finally reacted to it!
Thanks Markus!
Well mr. Cowboy hat nailed it exactly I'm very jealous it took me a lot longer than that
I loved this one it's a hidden gem.
There's like 3 different alternative endings that can be found on the special edition DVD.
One of which involves Dennis Quaid's character, Captain Payton/Corp. Gallo having a conversation with his young self, asking what shall they do next, now that "they are both"
stuck at the bottom of the ocean. Gallo stares blankly at the camera and smiles sinisterly, implying that that will find a way to escape.
All the layers of muck the characters pull off of themselves when they exist the tubes is actually a thick layer of dead skin. The suspended animation can keep them from totally aging, but not keep skin cells from regenerating over time. So yeah, that's like an entire coat of dead slough.
Would be pretty cool to peel it off lol
Def an underrated film! Well done 👍🏾 I’ve also learned whenever Marcus says one thing it’s probably the exact opposite 😂😂
This,you may be interested to know,was meant to be part of a trilogy.I think the next one was supposed to be a prequel about how the whole situation started,and then a sequel after that about the experiences the survivors have on Tanis.This movie did not do well,though,and so there are no more Pandorum movies forthcoming.
That's disappointing - the story idea is pretty darned good and it would have been interesting to see how things panned out.
@@dallassukerkin6878 If you’re like me you’ve (sadly) learned to expect disappointment in these matters.
I thought about that dude getting attacked while waking up when I saw this for the first time. Apparently the hibernation process gives you amnesia. She this dude wake up not knowing anything about who he is, where he is, that totally blank about his life. He was closer to being born than waking up. So essentially he had 10 seconds of absolute horror and pain.
That’s a cheerful thought.
Thank you Grand-daddy Markus!
This is an awesome, often overlooked movie.
Although I expect to see more reactions to it in the next few months now 😉
The ending could have been less positive and it would still be great!
Edit: Perfect timing too, I just made my chicken wings 😀
I honestly can't believe this movie was recommended. I love this movie. And I agree, I would love to know how Tanis develops, etc.
Guys I love your channel I never comment normally but I’ve watched you since you started Maybe a few thousand subs But most movie review channels just have a voice overview on video But you guys have face cams With reactions and everything and it’s really good fun to watch
This movie reminds me of Beyond Aquilas Rift - Love death and robots. I think you guys would love the series.
Saw this movie in the theaters. Two things: I liked the movie overall but couldn’t stand how (literally) dark it was and second, Antje Traue was very gorgeous, even all dirty and oily lol
now being dark is normal.
Oh hell yes!!! This is the one I was waiting for. Excellent pick Markus
When I watched this movie the first time, at the end, when they don't see any stars, and then the first underwater glowy thing swims by, my first thought was that the ship had been drifting long enough for all the stars to actually die and weird energy space monsters to, uh, appear from somewhere, so like the entire nature of what "space" was managed to change. Would've been utter nonsense (unless they managed to really convincingly explain how the ship stayed intact for that long), but I still like that idea and was a tad disappointed by the actual ending compared to it. Still a great movie though. Hopefully someone requests Sunshine sometime, that one's a great space movie too.
Sunshine would be a great film for them to do!
waters above
I've always liked this movie. I think it's cool that the monsters were just humans that had bred several generations over the 900 years into crazy cannibal mutants. People were given something so they would adapt to life on Tanis but instead adapted to the ship. I like the reveal at the end that they had been on Tanis for awhile just at the bottom of the ocean too.
Good film and it opens up the Ben Foster library (30 Days of Night, 3:10 to Yuma, Hell or High Water)
The monsters in this movie are the crew that first woke up. They like all of the crew were being chemicals that would allow them to adapt to their new world. The Monsters woke up and adapted to deep space. Pandorum is just a psychotic break that some people in deep space have, basically like cabin fever. The Captain did not have psychic powers, he was just delusional. What appeared to be pschotic traits in the non-mutated crew was actually just the effect of excessive stasis.
What I remember most about this movie was the ending. They open the ship windows and find nothing, no stars. Then you see the ocean based critters and they realize they have been there for hundreds of years already. Pretty good movie. If humanity were ever to build an ark like that you would expect that things would break down. You can't have nothing go wrong when your voyage can take hundreds of years. I'm assuming they don't have faster than light travel in the movie.
I have one of the pictographs from the set (wall panel in the cooks kitchen), the king slumbered one. Always loved this shame the trilogy was never made.
“It’s a regular spider”
Not really reassuring, tbh.
As I understand it, they are the descendants of the passengers and crew that gallow "exiled" to the cargo bay. Being trapped in there together with I'm assuming few supplies combined with their situation, throw in a little pandorum they started to turn on each other. All the while the enzymes meant to adapt them to tanis accelerated the transformation over 800 years (123 yr flight) and likely stopped acting human a long time ago.
Omg first The Big Lebowski and now this, two of my all time favourite movies in a row, and this one is so underrated and unknown, thanks so much for reacting to this!! :)))
Another great choice. You guys rock and thanks Markus. I watched it with my dad when it came out and we both liked it too.
I would say it's more like if a colony ship got taken over by Reavers if I wanted to explain it to someone who had seen Serenity.
Actually, come to think of it, they're Morlock's from The Time Machine.
Me and my Pops saw this in theaters, it is one of me all-time favorite underrated sci-fi horror films from the 2000s, it deserves a lot of praise. Part of me wishes it had gotten the franchise it was said to have. I *_DID NOT_* expect the end twist. I will defend this movie even long after my deatb.
And I praise Mrs. Movies, she deserves a lot of love and praise for her patience in watching movies like this and/or even the Nightmare on Elm Street/Friday the 13th franchise, two thumbs *_WAY UP_* for her. 😉😀
I love this movie. It’s so underrated (and unheard of for that matter) it’s not even funny.
“Pandorum” is just a type of psychosis.
Antje Traue is really great, and very beautiful too. She's a German actress that's been in many films and series. Most Americans know her from this film or her part in Man of Steel. She's in a pretty interesting series called Dark, which is fairly good.
Nice, I remember really enjoying this movie, keep up the great work yall.
Love that you mentioned the Reavers! I always thought these creatures were a lot like them and I assume this film might have drawn inspiration from them. Plus I found y'all through your Firefly reactions so it's like a little Easter egg for me that you referenced the show lol. Thanks for another fun one!
so glad ya'll did this one. such an underrated movie, love the channel.
Very underrated movie 🍿🎥
First time here, love this film, immediately Subscribed on "are these Reavers?" Insight 20, perfect.
Thank you Markus for this recommendation. I love this movie
That was a good movie I agree it"s an underrated movie
I love this movie, but the only people who I know have seen it, I showed it to them. Thanks for spotlighting such an underrated gem.
Thank you guys for reacting to this movie finally someone does it
I've watched this movie for years and I never noticed how the room was full of boots 🤦 still love it though lol
This is such a great movie.
Excellent choice,,, excellent reaction 👍👍
I remember seeing this on TV one evening .. didn't know anything about it ... I loved it from start to finish .. very underrated movie
There are so many cabin fever or mutations in space movies. Kinda crazy how much this theme has been done. Especially considering they could do it on a submarine or Antarctica or just an actual cabin. Some reason they love doing it in space tho. I guess it masks how unrealistic the premise is because space is so alien to us that we will accept more bizarre things without push back.
It's been a long time since I've saw this film and forgot what happens 😆 but it's coming back to me now and pandorum is an amazing film so many great actors in this 👏
Yeah, this was a good hidden unheard of gem. It would make a decent videogame, actually. This is up there with "Sunshine". Great Reaction btw!
If I remember correcly, this movie was supposed to be the first of a trilogy. it didn't do great at the box office so the sequels were canned. Thankfully the story is concised and self-contained enough that it's perfectly enjoyable on its own, and is generally considered an underrated movie.
doesn't surprise me
Thanks Markus!
The monsters are the effect of Pandorum. I think when Quad got confirmation that Earth was doomed he was the first to spiral out then killed most of the crew and hibernated till the events of the movie. Then people started waking up and they never knew they landed and put themselves into Pandorum. Quad later is unaffected cause he knows it ain't real
Underrated sci-fi horror gem, love it
Awesome, very much underrated!
I love this movie...
I love this movie and I haven’t really seen anyone on TH-cam talk about it. Hell yeah
Lol yup its like if the reavers & decent creatures had a baby in space :D Wicked flick!
You want to know what Pandorum is? Short version? Space Madness. Someone who flips their fuckin' lid over something or nothing while out in space, due to isolation, trauma, etc.
Super excited to dig into this one. It's such a good entry into the space horror catalog even if overall it's got some weird plotholes. Still a fun one!
New subscriber here. Love watching you guys. You should check out Death To Smoochy. It’s a great movie with many great actors. It’s has Edward Norton, Robin Williams, Danny Davito, and so many more.
Saw this as part of a triple feature at the drive-ins when it came out along with Zombieland and Jennifer's Body (Hope you watch those, too).
So happy you're reacting to it.
I hope you do Stir of Echoes.
omg i love this movie! yey for scifi!
This movie is very underrated what is it interesting plot twist especially for Dennis quaid's character and Mr Twilight guy he is very creepy in this
We have so few sci-fi horrors these days. Its sad.
Another great horror fiction movie that I recommend is: The colony ( 2013 )
It would've been nice if they made a mini series around this movie. Like a before and after. I want to see what went on when they ready the ship, the mission till it went wrong and what happens on Tanis after this movie. They need to get the specimens off the biolab and set up shop. Then how is the reactor going to affect the new planet?
I accidentally flipped this on back when it came out of premium movie channel in 2009/10. Was like "Oh it's in space... let's see how it is."
UNDERRATED GEM
Forgot to add that the opening premise is pure nightmare fuel.
Waking up on a space ship that appears abandoned, locked in a room, and possibly unable to wake up someone else knowing that you would have to live a few days alone until you die of starvation or dehydration. Count me out of that FUBAR situation. I'll die on earth with the rest of humanity.
Agro-Man is played by Cung Le, former MMA and UFC fighter. Crazy kicker.
They are whispering not to wake the creatures?!😰😱😍🎥
I remember loving the beginning and being so disappointed by the resolution.
This was legit a great movie such a shame at the time horror wasn't seen the same way as it is now with so many sophisticated horror projects over the past 6-8 yrs I would of loved to have seen a sequel
At the end, I have always had these weird anger/jealousy towards all the people in the pods that ejected at the end, because they got it easy, and only 2 people out of 1213 had to experience absolute Hell 😂
Very underrated great movie!
Completely forgot this movie existed it's so underrated👍
The girl plays in the Zack Snyders MAN OF STEEL as fiorra El ...she's a badass
awesome movie
This is scary..
I was thinking of that movie yesterday, When I was at work. 😨
Get out of my mind TH-cam!!!
It'd be so awesome if you two reacted to Con Air, Leaving Las Vegas or Bad lieutenant: Port of call New Orleans. We need some Nic Cage love in here lol
Wow. You weren't even half way into the movie and you figured it out. I had to watch it 3 times to get it.
My fav quote from the movie is smells like "herb and butter dog s**t
I wish I could recommend movies to react to if you haven't seen (all are sci-fi) :D -
Man from Earth (2007)
9 (2009)
Moon (2009)
Daybreakers (2009)
Chronicle (2012)
+1 (2013)
annnnnnnd 2 days later they are dead from the benz.
damn
I imagine your hostage is in a wheelchair and she can't escape because there's a flight of stairs holding her back.
You poor thing.
Marcus..we need to save this damsel in distress
Underrated Dennis Quaid Film
ok, i finally realized why the green wall is there
I do know that where those creatures were sleeping.. they were surrounding like a huge radiation thing. Which helps to explain why they weren't human anymore. I'll take a tanning bed over that thing any day !
nice reaction
Yessssss
Oh this movie... Oh my.
Well shit. I guess it kinda is "Descent in space."
What!? I love this movie and no one ever reacts to it. This is great!
