Defcon 2012

DEFCON 2012 is a very cool sci-fi film that goes deep into the end of the world theories and beyond. Kaynin, Archer and Rune are galactic scavengers who travel between planets seeking out treasure and lost artifacts or anything they can find to survive on. Their spacecraft lands on E541, a planet once know as Earth. Kaynin is a jaded scavenger who has lost hope for humanity and feels he has no family. Each planet feels more and more like a wasteland providing nothing to inspire him to go beyond his scavenger ways. Rune, who is part robot and part human seems to have each mission under control while Archer is reckless and could find himself in harms way forcing Kaynin to worry about both of them. Soon after discovering the empty underground structure they have been wondering is empty they run into Axton and Tak, a couple of telepathic warriors from a human resistant group. They join forces with Kaynin, Archer and Rune and soon find they're not alone in the underground city. Another darker figure known as Vulkl stalks them as they search for treasure and lost artifacts. They soon run into E-San, who is one the survivors for the planet and lives with a large family in an underground world known as Shelter City. She guides through the labyrinth of the underground world and as they search for the clues that once destroyed the planet. Each clue seem to draw the characters deeper into a maze of government conspiracies and Mayan mythology. It's a much deeper story then what is in the actual film and is the type of movie you might need to watch a few times to truly understand what makes it so unique and mysterious. This film is none conventional in so many ways and daringly breaks all of the rules of filmmaking to tell an interesting story with an even deeper message. If your paying attention you might be entertained and left with real questions about the end of the world and what that really means.
