A story of human colonists on Mars who must be rescued after becoming possessed by vengeful Martian ghosts.
Rating:7/10 When you talk about Ghosts of Mars, you have to say that it was well made, well acted and had a lot of action. It starts of slowly enough, with no Ice Cube in the first half hour, but it is building up the tension. You are getting the story as to what is happening. This movie reminds me a lot of Assault on Precinct 13. It doesn't have a lot of scares, and it doesn't have a lot fo gore, but the death scenes are pretty sweet. Ghosts of Mars is a pretty original film by John Cartpenter. The music also went very well with setting the tone, giving the town that eerie feeling. The villians certainly were freaky enough. Especially Big Daddy Mars. A lot of the villians remind me of Slipknot. The fight scenes were top notch and and the special effects were pretty cool. If you are into sci fi/horror, you will love Ghosts of Mars.
