Well folks, with just under six weeks until it bows in theatres, the final Pandorum poster has finally been released. It’s a doozy, I’ll tell you that much, though I have to wonder if it’s really as effective as it could be.
The movie stars, of all people, Dennis Quaid as part of a two-man team of astronauts who suddenly wake up in their spaceship. But this by itself wouldn’t make much of a movie, so there are complications.
1. The ship is completely powered down.
2. Neither one of the astronauts can remember who they are or what their mission is.
3. There’s something alive on board the ship…and it’s not supposed to be there.
Given the rather nonspecific nature of the plot synopses, the poster actually makes a note of sense. But there’s a difference, at least to me, between playing your cards close to the vest and just being truculent. This qualifies as sheer truculence to me–they’re not going to tell you a THING before you actually watch it, and while that does make for the most possible suspense, it also makes a buying decision difficult. Will this be worthwhile?
That’s a question I’ll be happy to answer for you, folks. Keep it right here for Screenhead coverage.
