My highly subjective judgement from February 2012:

I liked it.Well made and acted perhaps a little predictable and a million times better than Ghosts of Mars.

I believe the UK release is without extras but the USA has commentary (blu is region A locked)

It's John Carpenter without teeth, basically. Not a patch on his 1978 - 1988 period. I liked Ghosts of Mars. It was very much a sci-fi version of Assault on Precint 13 and clearly influenced the Reavers in Joss Whedon's Firefly.

I also like Ghosts of Mars. Silly, but a lot of fun.

I watched it a few times over the years and each time was left feeling I hadn't watched anything.Can't put my finger on why.
