Apocalypse of Ice from mockbuster kings The Asylum!
This time round, as if The Asylum haven’t already made a boat-load of these apocalyptic nature films before – including when Hollywood went crazy on the same subject – a massive polar vortex threatens to cover nearly all of Earth in ice. Oh and did I mention the world is also in the middle of a global pandemic..? Yes as if a pandemic wasn’t enough, in this film we get a global apocalypse too!
But hey this is The Asylum, so you know what that means don’t you? Stock footage aplenty, from empty streets thanks to a real-world pandemic, to collapsing ice caps and a myriad of clips from other movies and plenty off new footage featuring the films cast talking between themselves – typically filmed on sound stages in California – and a ton of CGI; which is this case veers from the usual terrible sub-video game look to more than passable at times! All in a days work for The Asylum!
