SCI-FI MONTH: "THE DARK SIDE OF THE MOON"

Sorry guys. It's been awhile. But I finally have some free time, and just in time really because it's science fiction month here at the blog. Lets start out with a lesser known sci-fi horror movie called "The Dark Side of the Moon". I want to begin by warning you that this movie is not good. The acting is bad, the director isn't very good, the budget is low, and the story is somewhat confusing, BUT it is interesting and worth checking out for a couple reasons.

The biggest reason, in my opinion, to check out this flick is because "Event Horizon" completely rips it off. Fans of that movie will see the giant similarities. Still, "Event Horizon" is probably a better movie, but it may be interesting to see if they were influenced by this movie at all. But "Dark Side of the Moon" has an equally interesting premise as "Event Horizon". A crew is stuck in outer-space on the dark side of the moon where evil things start to happen. People become possessed, others die gory deaths, and it is up to someone to figure out the mystery behind these dark deeds. Another reason to check this out is the atmosphere. The music, or lack thereof, and dark shots made it worthy of keeping my attention. I wasn't always listening intently to the bad actors delivering corny lines, but I was glued to the minimalist style space station and the darkness surrounding it.
