Life's not been easy for brother and sister Haley Lu Richardson and Booboo Stewart since the drought came. A drought unlike any other. Oregon where they live is no longer fertile and green. Instead it's looking very much like the Mojave Desert where The Last Survivors was shot. It stopped raining there 10 years earlier in a natural world wide disaster.
But in their own corner of the world a man named Carson played by Jon Gries is pushing out all of the people who are and have dug wells to survive. He's got the men and muscle to push them out and kill the survivors. Gries wants the whole valley for himself and to pass on to his daughter Nicole Ariana Fox who's as much a human predator as her father is.
This quickie which only took days to shoot is decently done and the ensemble cast give good performances. It's one bleak picture of a possible future. One thing I could not figure out, water was the big issue here, but I never saw anyone eat anything, where was all the food?
Make note of Max Charles who played a kid also trying to survive that Richardson and Stewart kind of adopt. He and Richardson stood out in this cast.
