Hello all i played Screws in the film. Many thanks for all the positive comments. Really enjoyed making it lots of hard work but was a great part of my life. Tell all yours friends. Thank you once again. Keep on Drifting. Steve x
@@joestitz539 well I’m not sure as my friend wrote it but what I will say we are all fans of the original trilogy so it’s hard not to be influenced with what you know. Thanks for watching.
greetings from 2021!!! what a ride. I couldnt believe it when I read our budget was 7500$, that is a testament to creative genius and a make-do attitude a make-better attitude. everything I was gonna say has already been said, so, my hat is off to all involved!!!! truly wonderful!
Would love to see a 2nd carry on movie. Definitely not a series though... Sci - Fi. Lover. 1000 points for all involved in this making and especially the writing of story line. A real WOW
When it ended I said "no" you can't end like that" and it made me think and think and think until I realized, it had to end that way. The journey and the action and the acting was top notch, the pace was fast for there was action plenty of it, and the music really set the stage for your imagination, and the special effects weren't over the top, they were done just right, real enough but not cringe-worthy. I was glued from the get go- what a ride!
Thanks man. Really appreciate the review and so glad you enjoyed the film. It was great fun to make but lots of long days and hard work. All worthwhile when you read things like this. Thanks again for watching. Steve aka Screws.
A remarkably entertaining film. I am astounded by the fact that the total budget was only $7500, I have done multiple combat animations for our product marketing, some as long as 12 minutes, and they all cost no less than $25,000, normally more. Very intelligent use of everyday props and items. Cinematography was a class act. Well done, well done!
Great work, nice use of military surplus, reversible softies, strapping and coveralls etc... The banter reminded me of Dog Soldiers. Brits in space, love it.
Well I thought it was excellent and the shaky cam worked really well in this case, building up the tension and feeling of 'movement'. The sets were great, they'd put a ton of time into them. And another thing that impressed me was how naturalistic the dialogue sounded, I've seen many independent films where it sounds like they're reading from cue cards. Kudos to the actors! Chris.
I've been adrift and somehow found this communication that was fully intact. There were many messages that were very clear throughout this communication feed. Love, sacrifice, playfulness, danger, and a wee bit of humor. Never leave anyone behind...that was profound and professional. Ok, so I'm a few years late, but WOW this was a super fun movie! Im tired of the overpaid actors and the lack of writing skills needed to produce a good movie or the so-called block buster that usually ends up with the same ol same ol garbage that everyone knows how it ends. DEFINITELY NOT with this Priceless Gem! At first I was like a young kid on a salvage team in space? So it kept my interest. From there it was like peeling each layer back, the a twist or two, then I was shocked by the outcome. This absolutely needs a sequel one day to find out the perfect setup from the ending here. Rock Paper Scissors.....❤ Geek 😢 😭 ❤ That boy absolutely had his A game on and I was rooting him on! Hats off to Everyone involved! You should be proud of this film. I'm privileged to have seen it. ❤✌️⚘️⚘️⚘️⚘️
Absolutely excellent, even script always "somebody messing about the deadly accident liability for the mission & crew". British drama excellence, FX used to heighten suspense, military secret kept hidden the fatal flaw of the civilian salvage mission. Agree with others, ending begs for 'Part2' ...so glad BritAwards recognized the excellence in true British acting and drama tradition.
I'm so glad to see someone's dreams come true. The risk is high, but the payoff is extraordinarily spiritual. This film was excellent in the making, on such a budget. It shows we all could do things we want if we want it badly enough. It had it all, plot,l theme, .... etc.
This was packed with all the cliches and plots from various movies and TV shows, even spied “Serenity” influences in the “Deliverance” ship design, but the reavers in this looked liked they had a slice of bread and jam stuck to their faces. Enjoyable though. Well done
i accept many comments below, however I was kept interested by wanting to know how the STORY would pan out. Not many movies can keep me watching that long. Well done chaps and chapettes.
Excellent storyline and secret plot. Had me glued to the screen. Twists and turns all left me in suspense. Not often I watch an entire film from start to finish including the credits. Thank you for posting. **** 4stars
I will certainly have my eye out for not only Scales work. But that of Backyard Productions. You have set out and accomplished exactly what you wanted, a Great product! It pulled be in from the begining and kept my attention all the way through! Bravo!
Just watched this movie last night and I have to say it was brilliant. I don't think the UK has any bad actors as everyone in this was great. The CGI kind of took me out of the movie every now and then, but was pretty good over all. I thought Scarlett would have been killed when the C4 was detonated, but glad to she survived. And definitely looking forward to seeing what transpired at the very end of the movie. Well done!
If I were the Captain and Scarlett had kissed me like that, my son would have had a new step mother and we all would have had a happy story ending! Great job!
Surprisingly well done. I appreciate the fact that people did this for free. Almost unheard of these days. I could not always make out what was being said but I like the British accent - always have :) I am getting tired of the zombie phenomenon, though. Look forward to future productions.
Their filming budget: a mere $7500. The makers of this need to be applauded, I mean come on! they had me on the edge of me seat a bunch of times, felt bad for a few characters, the CG was darn fine too... imagine what this crew could do with $75,000 or $750,000!!
I think this movie is wonderful...great job on everything...especially considering the budget. The low tech mixed with high tech really worked for the movie. I saw duct tape, toggle switches from the hardware store etc. I think the "space suits were the tops of those trash cans with the "swinging flap doors"...but it all worked together! Going to look for more of their productions. Best hour and 40 mins. I've spent watching a movie in a while. Thanks to all involved.
i'm not only impressed - but i enjoyed it - the story started out with some originality - but it changed into something conventional - that wasn't a problem - it was still compelling enuf for me i felt like a high-budget scifi film to me Vin Hawke also fooled me - i went to IMDb to find out if he really was american even tho i know how good british actors are at assuming american accents now - turns out - he's a brit
I just found this film and really enjoyed it. Always been a sci-fi fan and was pleasantly surprised to see a "down to earth" film. Very well done..Got lost a couple of times in the story but recovered and carried on !! Thanks so much for this.. Excellent..
This film was a community project, with the aim of demonstrating the group's capability of producing a professional-looking feature film on an ultra-low budget. Those involved included professionals, media graduates and local volunteers, some of whom had no previous film-making experience. Everyone involved gave their time for free. Costs were funded by the members of Backyard Productions, assisted by a community grant from the Lincolnshire Co-operative.
+LegionAvalon I must emphasise that I had nothing to do with this production personally, I just reproduced the IMDB description for general information. :-)
I can see why so many awards. Good plot, and enough realism in the set. I love the opening when the systems become active again. The boot up is well thought out. One thing I have a bit of a curiosity about: It seems to me there'd be a rush by everyone to take a piss. Like right away. When I get up that's the first thing on my mind....er bladder. But like any other difficultly it was no doubt overcome by human ingenuity. We gonna have to figure out the problem of lavatory issues in long haul space flight. All in all these guys with a little more money could be the rivals of any Hollywood comic book production company. Thumbs up.
These guys have shown what can be done for £5000. They are an inspiration and could teach Hollywood a thing or two. Better acting, props and special effects/production values than most $100 million 'Blockbusters'. I think if they were able to produce this on actual film rather than digital video(which is very expensive - i am sure i have seen digital video that has been put through a process that mimics film almost 100% for that 'Big Blockbuster' look), and also maybe if they had an extra £20,000 to spend Then this movie would have been a perfect example to put the big budget films to shame. Like i say, for the budget of £5000/$7500 all i can say is wow! You can barely get a brand new car for that now.
Wow did you really say that. This is one of the worst movies I seen on RUclips. The idea is good but that's all. You are either being really nice or you really are rather new to RUclips. Like wtf RUclips has really good movies don't play you tube like that
Literally, only 23 mins into this movie and I'm already thinking that if being in space is anything like this at all then, the majority of people would die from heart attacks. Whew, it would be very stressful, lol. This is a decent movie. Closer on the B scale but, still pretty decent. Tyfs!
Loving the nod towards Alien. Or at least that's the vibe I got. I enjoy a good Indy flick where the focus is more on story than flashy special effects. Cheers!
Even though I did not even grasp the plot, the structure and delivery were superb. Some of the best acting I've ever seen on film. The effects were top notch. The cinematography is breathtaking. Just don't miss a frame!
When an experience leaves you saying "wow"... at the end, with a loss for any other words... you know it was a good experience. I wish I could only have paid the makers of this film to have had the honour of watching it. What an amazing story.. What a cliff-hanging ending. What a great experience. 12/10
Really enjoyed it. CGI very a'la Babylon 5 and elements of Pandorum with the marooned survivors. The cast and crew did a wonderful job with the budget. Gotta say they did themselves proud. Thanks for your hard work. You made a good, engaging and interesting film.
I cannot imagine working in space with some of the casually careless people I work with here on earth. Ignoring safety precautions and only doing maintenance when absolutely needed. And that is just the business owners. The staff is exactly the same. I bet a lot of those ships that ho missing in in scfi movies were the result of people like some of this crew.
I read the negative comments with a grain of salt, I found it very entertaining, drama, comedy and zombies? I've seen worse on paid TV, it was fun! thank you!
Well done movie. Good story and special effects. I also liked the easter egg seen at 26:02. I wondered for a moment about the significance of the letters BYP until I noticed the name of the channel that uploaded this video.
The moment from 2:00 to 6:00 is a nice hommage to the Nostromo (deck, computer booting sequence, crew emerging from hypersleep). The first few notes of the music even sound like James Horner.
I was a bit skeptical from the like/dislike ratio but was a fantastic job on the budget. Glad I gave it a chance. Way out classed most low budget movies and more than a few blockbusters. Good story with a believable setting. Actually cared what happened to the characters. Nice work!
Yeah, that had to be said. I mean shouldn´t have the word "Wow" have had a chance, to be born right after the upload of this movie? That would have been fair or not my fellow movie viewers? I mean "golly Gee" how unfair the world can be nowadays. Shocking...very shocking. You could compare it too why your friends have put all the toilet paper in the freezer. Shocking......unbelievably stocking......and I also see the unnecessary nice work ... as a gift from dancing angels during a sunny spring morning
Opening credits were great. Kudos on the great shoestring digital work. Ship looks a bit like "Serenity" if you catch my drift. Zombies or not I give it a thumbs up.
I would crowdfund this one for better texturing, but...the design work was so fresh I didn't care. Proof that when the story isn't too loaded down with the cliches the big studios insist on, the end product can be well done.
This was so damn enjoyable, I couldn't buy a decent motorcycle for what they produced this movie on. About $8,000.00 dollars U.S. I believe. Nice work.
"Crystals that made faster than light speeds possible." and, "suddenly, they failed." Well... this is what happens when you use technology you don't understand! It's like a caveman found an automobile, found out how to use it and started exploring a big desert but it ran out of gas or a solar storm damaged its electronics. Does he know where the problem is? Of course NO. Anyways, the people who made this move are brilliant because they did a production with almost Hollywood quality but with just a fraction of their cost so stop whining because it's FREE 😎😎😎
Hard to believe people are criticizing this film. Its the typical "if its not professionals, its no good" mindset prevailing in those who are downing this. If the credits were replaced with "professional" movie makers and production names the same people criticizing it would be heaping praises on it. There was only one non-finished CG scene I caught (flashed by), and the obvious British culture not understanding how guns really work and their danger (no way anyone who knows anything about guns would have lost the fight at the end with the armaments he had) was the only other problem I caught. This is on a par with Hollywood any day. In fact they even were politically correct (gag) enough to make a biracial element in the story and use the typical childish need to swear once in awhile (which could have been left out and the impact of the film still be great). Those who say this was bad need check their motives and get a reality check by seeing online videos where the professional films have just as many blunders in them.
+Lee Brewer Not entirely true. There were shots in the beginning where the CG was not properly color matched with the live action. Which is not that hard to accomplish. Yet, it pulls you out of the story. Color matching makes a big difference between engaging your audience, or making them wonder what is wrong with what they're looking at.
I noticed that, but given that there is Hollywood level million dollar productions that have shittier CGI.. fuck even whole movies, i would give this a pass with flying colors. Even physics of the film were thought pretty decently, given that ships and the debris would not stay still like that, specially with years of floating around. Even if caught by gravitation "well", there would have been much more movement and that would have been much faster...
Sure, the animatics and CG need quite a bit of work(from time to time the salvage ship looks like it's done the same way as The Last Starfighter), but I've seen worse in theatrical releases. I noticed the costumes and the ladder in the ship looked cheap, but seriously, I am shocked this could be made for $7,500. The big screen TV inside the salvage ship alone would cost $1,000+ and the interiors look pretty good. That's not even mentioning the acting(even though I'm only 20ish minutes in). You guys are amazing.
For a "backyard" film it was amazing. yea I could pick at the plot holes and how I would have written better, but what it comes down to is the fact you made a movie and it was good enough to watch all the way to the end. Keep up the good work !
Exciting film. Considering what went into the making of it and the many volunteers participating this film is quite incredible. I don't know why but somehow I'm reminded of *Event Horizon.*
Hello all i played Screws in the film. Many thanks for all the positive comments. Really enjoyed making it lots of hard work but was a great part of my life. Tell all yours friends. Thank you once again. Keep on Drifting. Steve x
Hi Screws, I enjoyed your performance. Did all of you make jokes on the set about Mortimer's 1990's camcorder?
Keep on my mind we loved your work structure yourself for more adventures.
You get idea of the end from movie Serenity ? Transmitting the crooked gov secret for all to see ? :)

I play Daniel in this and it was a blast! cant wait till we do another
WELL DONE!!! And all for $7500, fantastic.
Would love to see a 2nd carry on movie.
Definitely not a series though...
Sci - Fi. Lover.

This?
On a budget of $7,500?
No way!
You folks deserve any kudos, accolades or pats on the back you are offered.
Respect. Big time.
Wow! You are all amazing for producing such a high quality film 👍
Great work, nice use of military surplus, reversible softies, strapping and coveralls etc... The banter reminded me of Dog Soldiers. Brits in space, love it.
Dog Soldiers, Great flic and dialog!👍
What an excellent movie! Sci-fi has been my favorite genre for many years and I've got to say that this blows away the competition. Bravo!
I find it ...very....British.
Well I thought it was excellent and the shaky cam worked really well in this case, building up the tension and feeling of 'movement'. The sets were great, they'd put a ton of time into them.

Hats off to Everyone involved! You should be proud of this film. I'm privileged to have seen it.

Considering it was made on a low budget I absolutely loved the film, left me wanting to see more.
That was a down right amazing movie for a low budget flick. Amazing acting and special effects
Very well done. The production was top notch, the acting was not bad and the story even held my attention for the entire movie. Worth watching.
Absolutely excellent, even script always "somebody messing about the deadly accident liability for the mission & crew".
British drama excellence, FX used to heighten suspense, military secret kept hidden the fatal flaw of the civilian salvage mission.
Agree with others, ending begs for 'Part2' ...so glad BritAwards recognized the excellence in true British acting and drama tradition.
The movie is so dark you can hardly see anything
Very entertaining! Actually had my heart rate going several times! Nice work, thank you!
i would've been proud to work on this film...fine piece of work, well done. very well done.
Way to set the bar high
I'm so glad to see someone's dreams come true. The risk is high, but the payoff is extraordinarily spiritual. This film was excellent in the making, on such a budget. It shows we all could do things we want if we want it badly enough. It had it all, plot,l theme, .... etc.
Would love to see a sequel to this! ....right from where it leaves off. Thanks for the entertainment!
This was packed with all the cliches and plots from various movies and TV shows, even spied “Serenity” influences in the “Deliverance” ship design, but the reavers in this looked liked they had a slice of bread and jam stuck to their faces. Enjoyable though. Well done
Really really impressive. Well done and very entertaining. Watched a second time and liked it even more. Wish there was a Part 2!
I think you guys did great, hats off to you and the whole crew, that took a lot of work to accomplish in so many small spaces.
i accept many comments below, however I was kept interested by wanting to know how the STORY would pan out. Not many movies can keep me watching that long.
Well done chaps and chapettes.
You have low attention span
Was really good
Yeah well done...man...cheetah chatter👍
I enjoyed this film very much! Well done! Way better than a lot of the newer mainstream movies lately!
The movie was outstanding!
That is an amazing £5,000 worth of film. Well done to all involved
Well done!! The banter is realistic..the teamwork pro, the.pacing fine.....on a budget of 7500$ a terrific achievement
Stumbled across this at the end of a sci-fi movie bender & have to say I thoroughly enjoyed this one! Good job!
Just curious if you can recommend any other really good SciFi gems. I look for new stuff and by the time I've looked for so long I end up giving up.
Agree it was an enjoyable film.

WOW cant believe you did such a fantastic job on such a low budget - amazing - looks like it could have a part 2, so put me down for that please!
1:36:25 The soundtrack at the end of the movie is quite an emotional piece of music. This is what I call leaving the best for last.
That was VERY COOL! Great work guys.

I read the negative comments with a grain of salt, I found it very entertaining, drama, comedy and zombies? I've seen worse on paid TV, it was fun! thank you!
kept me watching and enjoying throughout. Very impressed. Thank you all.
That was great.
That's how a good movie ends. I liked this one very much.
Well done movie. Good story and special effects. I also liked the easter egg seen at 26:02. I wondered for a moment about the significance of the letters BYP until I noticed the name of the channel that uploaded this video.
Does anyone believe the budget was only 7500??? That's what it says in the description. No way. For that money this is very good.
Loved this movie and the special fx!
not even 2 minutes into it, and I'm already wishing that my small production company would make something like this for film festivals!
The moment from 2:00 to 6:00 is a nice hommage to the Nostromo (deck, computer booting sequence, crew emerging from hypersleep). The first few notes of the music even sound like James Horner.
it's an original piece by James Griffiths
@@BlokeOnAMotorbike Well, thank you for the information. The soundtrack is great.
For a budget film I was impressed. Congratulations to the makers and actors.
AWESOME MOVIE!! GOOD JOB!!! Time to promote this on Twitter!
As the English might say,
"That was banging!"
Wide open for Drift II!!!!
This movie is really bad. The actors and dialouge are very obnoxious. Couldn't make it to the end.
The British don't say that!
I was a bit skeptical from the like/dislike ratio but was a fantastic job on the budget. Glad I gave it a chance. Way out classed most low budget movies and more than a few blockbusters.
Good story with a believable setting. Actually cared what happened to the characters. Nice work!
Yeah, that had to be said. I mean shouldn´t have the word "Wow" have had a chance, to be born right after the upload of this movie? That would have been fair or not my fellow movie viewers? I mean "golly Gee" how unfair the world can be nowadays. Shocking...very shocking. You could compare it too why your friends have put all the toilet paper in the freezer. Shocking......unbelievably stocking......and I also see the unnecessary nice work ... as a gift from dancing angels during a sunny spring morning
Opening credits were great. Kudos on the great shoestring digital work. Ship looks a bit like "Serenity" if you catch my drift. Zombies or not I give it a thumbs up.
Andrew M get it? Drift? lol
Andrew M me to
Good eye, it dose look like Serenity, which was a fantastic movie!
I would crowdfund this one for better texturing, but...the design work was so fresh I didn't care. Proof that when the story isn't too loaded down with the cliches the big studios insist on, the end product can be well done.
As a lover of sci-fi this is really good. Would like to see a part 2 10 years later. That was dang good
This was so damn enjoyable, I couldn't buy a decent motorcycle for what they produced this movie on. About $8,000.00 dollars U.S. I believe. Nice work.
Really 8K u.s. wow.
Not bad...better than some big budget films.
"Crystals that made faster than light speeds possible." and, "suddenly, they failed." Well... this is what happens when you use technology you don't understand! It's like a caveman found an automobile, found out how to use it and started exploring a big desert but it ran out of gas or a solar storm damaged its electronics. Does he know where the problem is? Of course NO. Anyways, the people who made this move are brilliant because they did a production with almost Hollywood quality but with just a fraction of their cost so stop whining because it's FREE 😎😎😎
Good film, quite enjoyed this. Well done.
I thoroughly enjoyed this film! Kudos!! Y'all have a grateful fan for life. 👏
Hard to believe people are criticizing this film. Its the typical "if its not professionals, its no good" mindset prevailing in those who are downing this. If the credits were replaced with "professional" movie makers and production names the same people criticizing it would be heaping praises on it.
There was only one non-finished CG scene I caught (flashed by), and the obvious British culture not understanding how guns really work and their danger (no way anyone who knows anything about guns would have lost the fight at the end with the armaments he had) was the only other problem I caught. This is on a par with Hollywood any day. In fact they even were politically correct (gag) enough to make a biracial element in the story and use the typical childish need to swear once in awhile (which could have been left out and the impact of the film still be great).
Those who say this was bad need check their motives and get a reality check by seeing online videos where the professional films have just as many blunders in them.
+Lee Brewer Not entirely true. There were shots in the beginning where the CG was not properly color matched with the live action. Which is not that hard to accomplish. Yet, it pulls you out of the story. Color matching makes a big difference between engaging your audience, or making them wonder what is wrong with what they're looking at.
I noticed that, but given that there is Hollywood level million dollar productions that have shittier CGI.. fuck even whole movies, i would give this a pass with flying colors. Even physics of the film were thought pretty decently, given that ships and the debris would not stay still like that, specially with years of floating around. Even if caught by gravitation "well", there would have been much more movement and that would have been much faster...
I am sorry but it's just poor
or it just sucks, because most of them should be making a movie about beer pubs instead of space.
+Christopher Smallbone well let's you make one and we shall see how good you are😜
Cheers! Thanks for your hard work in making something of enjoyment for the masses!
Phenomenal.
Thank you all. (Y)
Sure, the animatics and CG need quite a bit of work(from time to time the salvage ship looks like it's done the same way as The Last Starfighter), but I've seen worse in theatrical releases. I noticed the costumes and the ladder in the ship looked cheap, but seriously, I am shocked this could be made for $7,500. The big screen TV inside the salvage ship alone would cost $1,000+ and the interiors look pretty good. That's not even mentioning the acting(even though I'm only 20ish minutes in). You guys are amazing.
For a "backyard" film it was amazing. yea I could pick at the plot holes and how I would have written better, but what it comes down to is the fact you made a movie and it was good enough to watch all the way to the end. Keep up the good work !
Very respectable for a low budget sci fi film. Was worth watching!
Exciting film. Considering what went into the making of it and the many volunteers participating this film is quite incredible. I don't know why but somehow I'm reminded of *Event Horizon.*
yesitwas
you've all proven your skills and talent. excellent work.
This is like those video games that mixed real life actors, real backgrounds + cgi + chroma key . love it
Love Si-Fi, you really pulled it off. Good job
thanks for the movie,will watch more,remember anything is possible in a sci-fi movie just enjoy...
