A group of diverse individuals are suddenly taken from their homes and flown via helicopter to a futuristic bomb shelter in the desert, one-third of a mile below the surface of the Earth. There, they learn that a nuclear holocaust is taking place and that they've been "chosen" by computer to survive in the shelter in order to continue the human race. The shelter is designed to allow the people to exist underground comfortably for years, but they are faced with a threat nobody could have predicted: a colony of thousands of bloodthirsty vampire bats finds a way into the shelter and launches a series of vicious attacks where they claim the humans one by one.

| User ReviewCarlos IInteresting movie which is a lot more fun to talk about that to actually see. A group of citizens is strategically chosen to be placed in a bunker because in nuclear war has broken out. These will be the chosen ones To start the human race all over again. Sound interesting so far? Yes! Very Cloverfield Lane. Many psychological situations could have happened. I guess somebody somewhere decided this just wasn't enough.... So they added VAMPIRE BATS. Yes vampire bats. They're getting into the bunker! Oh no! So, what could have been interesting turns out to be bizarre and ultimately disappointing and boring. |
| User ReviewChris PI thought the vampire bats were a nice touch. |
| User ReviewBruce B70s sci-fi/thriller has a group of people sealed into a survival shelter during the onset of nuclear war and discovering they're locked in with a horde of hungry vampire bats. Despite what sounds like an amusing idea, flick is robbed of any fun as it's filmed with an absolutely lethargic hand by director Sutton Roley and the weak script and bad dialog don't help either. The cast is completely wooden and since we've seen a number of these actors do much better, it again falls on the director for not inspiring his performers. And this includes the bats as well, who are given no sense of menace or threat and are portrayed at times with some embarassingly bad FX. It's a shame, there is a really fun B-movie idea buried under all the underwhelming melodrama but, like it's beseiged characters, it's completely drained of life by the anemic execution by those behind the camera. |
| User ReviewAllan CWeak end-of-the-world film, where a chosen few are selected to live in an underground bunker. The only catch is there are nasty vampire bats. A good cast cannot overcome bad special effects and an awful script. |
| User ReviewSherry WDreadful. Just dreadful. As suspenseful as a wait in a bus queue. The cast of Chosen Survivors 'phone in their performances, while the almost nonsensical script plods along with an awe-inspiring predictability. The whole package is presented in such a serious and "adult" manner (not least the rape scene, which is just downright insulting to women) that it fails to possess the innocent charm of a good, dated B-movie. |
