What critics compared The Colony to
Director and co-writer Jeff Renfroe's future shocker The Colony is highly derivative, but credit where it's due: It has echoes of films as far-ranging as the grisly Pandorum and Doomsday (both 2009), The Road (also 2009, a bumper year for gory dystopias), and even Robert Altman's melancholy 1979 Quintet.

Krieps, of “The Colony” and “Hanna,” has just enough spark to suggest the steel beneath Alma’s compliant exterior.
