After all the critical acclaim heaved upon Danny Boyle and Alex Garland for helping to redefine the zombie flick with “28 Days Later…,” I was definitely excited to see if something similar could be done with science fiction genre. Granted, there are plenty of recent space movies but they’ve all focused on action and big…
From a religious perspective, I’ve never considered myself a non-believer but more of a sideline believer. I am fascinated by the Bible shows on the Discovery and History channels.
