No relation to the anime of the same name or the Don Bluth film Titan A.E. for that matter, this Attack on Titan is – you guessed it – another creatively titled film from The Asylum. This one justifies its title by having a rebel faction on Saturn’s moon Titan object to Earth’s deal with the government to harvest water crystals. Since they launch an attack on us, the film, whose original title, Alien Space Battle, still appears in the end credits would be more accurately called Attack from Titan. But that just doesn’t sound the same.
After an attack on a freighter carrying those water crystals back to Earth Citizen Prime Ortiz orders Max Reece to put together a mission to rescue it. There’s just one problem, the only...

Stars: Tom Sizemore, Natalie Storrs, Mark Ricketson, Kristos Andrews. Plastic Martyr | Written by Joe Roche, Rolfe Kanefsky | Directed by Noah Luke
Battle for Pandora is The Asylum’s mockbuster answer to Avatar: The Way of Water, although the trailer looked like it was as much inspired by James Cameron’s earlier film The Abyss, and perhaps inevitably given the two film’s similar effects, Terminator 2. It also looked a lot more interesting than anything to do with the Avatar franchise, although to be honest that really wouldn’t be too hard.
The Cassini 3 landed on Saturn’s moon Pandora and promptly stopped communicating with Earth. In response, a rescue mission led by Commander Hank Lewis (Tom Sizemore), is dispatched. On board is infectious disease specialist Dr. Jennifer Ryan (Natalie Storrs) and her husband Dr. Cliff Ryan (Mark Ricketson). This complicates things because Jennifer and the Cassini’s captain Greg (Kristos Andrews) have a history.

With the mega-budget Avatar: The Way of Water coming to theaters on December 16, it’s only natural that a low-budget “mockbuster” is also on the menu from the folks at The Asylum.
Titled Battle for Pandora, the sci-fi/horror movie is now available on VOD outlets.
Tom Sizemore stars alongside Mark Riketson and Kristos Andrews in the film, which really looks nothing like Avatar aside from taking place on a strange planet named Pandora. The Asylum’s Battle for Pandora looks to be more of a horror movie about an alien monster.
In the brand new genre movie, “After a help signal from a research vessel makes it back to Earth, the U.S. Space Force sends a rescue ship to Pandora, a moon of Saturn’s. But when they try to land, they discover Pandora is already inhabited by a highly evolved humanoid species that won’t give up...

The Asylum is known for their mockbuster movies, and when James Cameron‘s Avatar was released in 2009 they released the Edgar Rice Burroughs adaptation Princess of Mars with a note on the poster: “The classic story that inspired James Cameron’s Avatar“. A sequel to Avatar is heading to theatres this month, and this time The Asylum has a mockbuster that is even more obvious in its attempt to draw in viewers who are anxious to see something Avatar-esque. Coinciding with the release of Avatar: The Way of Water is the release of The Asylum’s Battle for Pandora! You can watch the trailer for Battle for Pandora in the embed above.

Thor: God of Thunder is the latest “mockbuster” from The Asylum and their second film about this hammer-wielding Norseman. There’s no connection however between this and their 2011 film Almighty Thor, thank Odin for small mercies.
This time out Loki has escaped captivity in Asgard. Who can blame him, his guards Ivar (Vadim Brunell) and Halstein are late with his meals and eat all the olives out of them. He proceeds to kill them and run Odin and heads to Earth to awaken the giant wolf god Fenrir and destroy Yggdrasil – The Tree of the Nine Realms. The usual evil diety stuff.
Odin manages to hold on until Thor arrives. He tells him the only way to stop Loki is to find the halves of The Amulet of Varga.

With Dwayne Johnson’s big-budget Jungle Cruise due out from Disney soon, The Asylum was sure to be ready with their own cash in. And sure enough, here comes Jungle Run starring Richard Grieco and a bunch of people you’ve probably never heard of before fighting creatures rendered with questionable CGI.
Lebecq captain’s a charter boat in Brazil. Like all jungle boat captains, he drinks heavily and leaves everything to his crew Sark (Benjamin Bernard; Messiah) and Teese (Christian DeJesus). Despite offering private charters he’s managed to charter his boat out to both Amanda and Vera (Jamie Petitto; Geek USA).
Amanda and her brother Scott (Jack Pearson; Shark Season) are searching for their missing father Nathan. Vera runs the company that sent him into the jungle.

All the deadliest animals in the jungle (and more) are unleashed in The Asylum‘s latest creature feature Jungle Run, which has just been released for Digital rental this week. In Jungle Run, which is essentially a “mockbuster” take on this summer’s Jungle Cruise, “A search for their missing father turns deadly when sibling adventurers find themselves viciously attacked by jungle animals. But as they fight back against the relentless onslaught they start to realize something much more sinister may be behind the attacks.” Jungle Run was directed by Noah Luke and written by Marc […]...

That's right, with Zee Evil Non-Twins out of the way, the Snyders are once again freed up to return their attentions to what they do best: Bickering and infighting (at least until the holidays, when they all eat together and get sucked into magical dollhouses/fairy-tales/mistletoe vortexes).
Now that Luke has decided not to return Damian to Biodads'r'Us and will be keeping him for a while, how will Holden's famous temper hold up?
To find out as it happens, follow along below, refreshing for breaking updates!
Pappa mia!
2:06Pm Edt: Luke is coming out of Noah's room when Papa Malteaser comes around the corner, chirping, "Hi, son!" Luke has been there all night, and when Damian asks if he can see Noah Luke says he's asleep. Damian wants to grab lunch but Luke's having lunch with his parents.
