‘The Colony’ trailer freezes us out

Okay, yes, we get it, the world is going to end and it’s awful. Just stop! Post-apocalyptic movies are Hollywood’s hot thing right now, with Tom Cruise’s Oblivion, Will Smith’s After Earth, et cetera all vying for some of that sweet moviegoer cash. Enter a new, somewhat lower-profile challenger in The Colony, an upcoming sci-fi film about the heat death of the Earth starring Bill Paxton and Laurence Fishburne. Humanity is driven underground into hermitlike colonies, but when a distress call goes out, things start to get even worse than the end of the world. No release date has been announced for The Colony yet.
