The Last Days On Mars (2013)

Starring: Liev Schreiber, Elias Koteas, Olivia Williams, Johnny Harris, Romola Garai
Director: Ruairi Robinson

Premise:
While on Mars, a group of astronauts makes a discovery of bacterial life existed on the planet. They decide to do an unauthorized expedition while waiting on their relief crew. Of course this turns out bad as a crew member dies and is exposed to this ancient bacteria. It changes his body composition and revives him as a murders creature which infects others.

My Take:
A stellar cast helps the movie. It's watchable but I've seen better with this familiar story.

Rating: In the middle
