But each day the now-magnetized planet gets closer, it triggers gravitational chaos around the world: Flaming meteors crash into the ground, automobiles are sucked into the sky, and the worst is still to come. Can a disgraced scientist (KIRK ACEVEDO) and the lone surviving crew member (DIANE FARR) and his wife, by strange coincidence, on a crippled space shuttle stop this Extinction Level Event by re-activating the top-secret planetary defense system known as \u2018Project 7\u2019? With the help of a couple whiz kids, boy I sure hope so!<\/p>\n<p><a name=\"features\"><\/a><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" title=\"*\" src=\"http:\/\/www.moviemansguide.com\/images\/main\/bar_blue.gif\" alt=\"\" width=\"650\" height=\"3\" \/><\/p>\n<h2 style=\"text-align: center;\"><strong>SPECIAL FEATURES \u2013 0\/5<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>Nope, no features unfortunately (or fortunately depending on your POV).<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter\" title=\"*\" src=\"http:\/\/www.moviemansguide.com\/images\/main\/bar_blue.gif\" alt=\"\" width=\"650\" height=\"3\" \/><\/p>\n<p><a name=\"video\"><\/a><\/p>\n<h2 style=\"text-align: center;\"><strong>VIDEO \u2013 4.25\/5<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>In a bit of a shocker, the 1080p high-definition transfer provided by Anchor Bay, actually looks impressive. The black levels for starters seem to be sharp and never show much in the way of artifacting, colors look well balanced and not oversaturated and the detail levels on the whole is clean with some noise which only adds to the film-like detail.
