Aurora
In the 22nd century, seven explorers set out on a mission to earth's nearest sister planet, AURORA. Their mission - to survey and explore for future colonization. When their ship suddenly malfunctions, the crew is forced to crash land on the planet's surface, where crippling heat, poisonous water, and fierce storms threaten their lives at every turn. With a handful of supplies and little hope of rescue, their only option is a grueling four hundred mile trek to their ship's lost supply bunkers. To survive, the men will have to push their endurance to the limit and entrust their lives to a leader who will risk everything to succeed, no matter what the consequences.

Nice effects though.
Best movie ever!
All of these films share one commonality, that being a kind of emotional center that humanizes a cast of monsters.
Like the great film, it's made with a great deal of visible affection both in front of and behind the camera.
This film has now been dropped to the level of 'free with very cheap DVD players' and it still isn't worth the money.I tried to sell the DVD on ebay 7 times but each time all I got was laughed at for owning it in the first place.This is without doubt the dullest and most badly written film you have ever seen. I would recommend it for only one thing, sitting in and watching with someone that you never want to see again...ever. If at the end of the film you say, "that was great lets watch it again tomorrow" then its guaranteed that even the hardiest of thick skinned none leavers will be off like a shot and bothering someone else.
I caught Aurora at the Birmingham Sidewalk film festival. After reading the comments, I couldn't help but say a few things about the film myself. First, Aurora is not for everyone, but as far as independents go, it is a brave and remarkable endeavor. Shot on credit cards in the Southwest with a small cast and crew, one is completely taken away to this bleak and beautifully photographed world. The special effects are okay, the performances, fair to terrific and the story, captivating an moving. One critic noted that the narrative was lifted from the Robert Falcon Scott story of the Antarctic. It is clearly inspired by that tale and the book "South With Scott" by Admiral Sir Edward R.G.R. Evans. The filmmaker is paying homage to Scott and his men! Aurora is a film to see
To start with, I felt asleep during the film. Actors are terrible, plot is non-existent, FX are bad. I can not see any reason at all to watch this movie. In summary, this is the kind of film that makes people hate SF.
I can't say that the Special Effects were any good. However Aurora makes the viewer realise that you do not need such things to make a good film. This film depends on its Story. And what a good story it is. Well done to the makers for making such an effort.
