The Planet on AllMovie

A group of mercenaries are forced to do battle against a malevolent force with enough power to destroy the entire universe in this sci-fi action thriller from director Mark Stirton. They were drifting through space when they were forced to abandon ship. Now trapped on a barren planet that shows no signs of life, this fearless group of warriors is about to discover that they are not alone. Something terrible is stirring on the wind-blown desert sands, something with the power to consume the souls of their fallen comrades and turn brother against brother. Should this force manage to escape into space and infect mankind, it will most certainly mean the end of the human race. As their numbers begin to dwindle and their resources run dry, the remaining survivors enter into a spectacular battle against an ancient evil.
