SOMNUS

Cinemavixion Review

In the vast expanse of space, "Somnus" unfolds as a tense sci-fi thriller that probes the depths of human isolation and the chilling consequences of desperation. The narrative centers on a cargo vessel forced to seek refuge on the remote asteroid colony of Somnus, only to discover its surviving inhabitants harbor sinister intentions. Director Chris Reading crafts an atmosphere thick with dread, enhanced by the performances of Rohit Gokani, Victoria Oliver, and Robert Myler, who effectively convey the crew's mounting terror and struggle for survival. While the film's IMDb rating suggests a challenging reception, its exploration of a crew's fight against both external threats and their own internal demons offers a compelling, if bleak, vision of humanity's darker impulses when pushed to the brink. "Somnus" is a stark reminder of the perils that can lie hidden in the void, both cosmic and psychological.
