LOST season 7? This movie was ripping off LOST so much that they should be ashamed of themselves. :rommie:
 
If this is going to Syfy for direct-to-DVD...there is NO shame.

In addition, some parts look like it was filmed on the Lost set...others, in the forests of Vancouver.
 
Like Hardcore LOST, it actually looks like it might be good, I'll see it, but yeah definitely ripping off many aspects of LOST here
 
That looks like what would happen if one of the surviving losties told the whole story to a movie producer after their return.

"Man, that's some serious shit and i dont believe a single word of it, but I'll pay you 108,000,000$ for the movie rights!"

It's probably going to be Kate :p

Based on how the exterior shots are lit (or rather not lit) and the acting (or rather how the acting is filmed), this is definitely a cheap straight-to-DVD flick. The studio's web site confirms it when you look at their library.

I was gonna give them a pass - hey, mysterious island being investigated isn't all that unique a premise - till Smokey showed up! :rommie:

I guess Smokey couldn't resist making the jump to movies, even if it's a cheesy direct to DVD movie.

Nah, Miles will be the first to think of it. While everyone else is busy being traumatized and mourning their dead friends, and Lapidus is dead drunk in the sleaziest bar in Guam, Miles will be on the phone to every agent in LA, getting a bidding war started.
 
Finally! the Black Oil from the X-Files is back too! This trailer looks so good I can't wait see -- hey! THERE'S my car keys!

Wait, what?
 
I have to assume redefining the words "lame ripoff" was the goal of this movie as it seems to achieved incredibly high marks in that area............

The smoke monster was the only 'real' rip off from Lost. - the rest of it could have been ... the most recent GI Joe film ... or the Incredibles.
