Space may be the final frontier, but it also makes a perfect isolated setting for a horror-thriller. While Dennis Quaid and Ben Foster were dealing with the deep space dangers of PANDORUM, Swiss filmmaker Ivan Engler was still busy crafting his own starship chills in a project called CARGO.
The synopsis: The story of CARGO takes place on rusty space-freighter KASSANDRA on its way to Station 42. The young medic LAURA is the only one awake on board while the rest of the crew lies frozen in hibernation sleep. In 4 months will Laura’s shift be over.
During her daily patrols, through the eerily empty ship, LAURA begins to get the feeling that she is not alone on-board. A discovery mission in the dark and ice-cold cargo hold ends in catastrophe. The remainder of the crew is awakened. A cat and mouse game begins in which nothing is what it seems. What lies hidden in the strange freight containers and who, or what, is also on-board?
