First look at Fishburne, Paxton & Zegers in cannibal flick The Colony, new synopsis

Last Updated on August 5, 2021

Growing up a fan of both, I need no extra incentive to see any movie starring Larry Fishburne and Billy Paxton. So when you place the two heavy-hitters in the middle of subterranean cannibal picture…good or bad…I’ll be banging the drum for this sucker until it comes out. How could I not?

With that, ladies and gents, I give you the first look at Fish, Pax and Kevin Zegers in THE COLONY!

As you can see, our three leads are decked with gear, weapons and flashlights…so you know some heainous shite’s about to go down. What’s not to like?!?

Here’s a more detailed plot synopsis, courtesy of Sierra Affinity Films:

Beneath the icy surface, survivors of Colony Seven struggle as food supplies dwindle and temperatures continue to drop. Plagued by illness and internal conflict, the colonists suspect the worst when they mysteriously lose contact with Colony Five – the only other known settlement. Sam, a strong-willed mechanic with a tragic past, joins a team headed up by Briggs on a dangerous expedition to find out what happened. After a hellish trek, they discover a threat much worse than imagined, and now Colony Seven must win a savage battle to preserve the last of humanity.

THE COLONY is directed by Jeff Renfroe, from a script he wrote with Patrick Tarr, Pascal Trottier and Svet Rouskov. Let’s hope a concentrated vision and voice were yielded from all those pens.

Charlotte Sullivan (below), John Tench, Atticus Dean Mitchell, Lisa Berry, Michael Mando, Dru Viergever and Romano Orzari also star in the film.
