RAKKA is Director, Neill Blomkamp's gloriously grisly, post-apocalyptic short film. Sigourney Weaver adds heft to the project, but it would be fantastic anyway! Blomkamp has a bleak, yet mesmerizing imagination, offering a new take on well-worn subject matter. The humans are convincingly desperate and committed to their survival, and the aliens are truly threatening and utterly merciless. With nods to past films such as THE TERMINATOR, PREDATOR, ROAD WARRIOR, etc., RAKKA still manages to be completely original...
