How do you make an 'Alien' movie different? Simple: take the aliens out of the equation and replace them with demons. While 'The Dark Side of the Moon' doesn't really offer anything we haven't seen before, I was intrigued by the link from space to the Bermuda Triangle.
'The Dark Side of the Moon' is set in 2022, so it was quite fitting that I would see it now for the first time. A Space ship malfunctions, and the crew now only has 24 hours of oxygen left. To make matters worse, they are heading to the dark side of the moon. They manage to call for help, but the approaching ship is not what they expected. When the ship docks and they go aboard, they find it deserted. And this is only just the beginning of their nightmare!
I enjoyed the characters, and the simple premise. There's also interesting character development as the crew start turning on each other, never knowing who to trust. The performances were actually pretty darn good. This film is not about aliens, but about demonic possession in space.
There's a few unexpected turns and the visuals and effects are rather good. For a film made over three decades ago and looking so good still by today's standards, it must truly have been quite something back in 1990. Why they released this direct to video instead of a theatrical release is beyond me. This was so good!
