Iron Lung plot

"This is not an expedition… it’s an execution."

The stars and planets have vanished. Only individuals aboard space stations or starships remain. After decades of decay and crumbling infrastructure, the Consolidation of Iron has made a discovery on a barren moon called AT-5. Hoping to discover vital resources, they immediately launch an expedition. A submarine is constructed and a convict is welded inside. Due to the pressure and depth of the ocean, the forward viewing port is sheathed in metal. If they succeed, they earn their freedom. If not, another will follow. This will be the 13th expedition.

Director and well-known YouTuber Mark Fischbach deserves to deliver his own horror film, especially when you manage to make your debut pour the most liters of blood ever measured onto the camera. Iron Lung is a film that can only come to fruition if the makers possess an undeniable passion for their material, and fortunately, that is largely present. Fischbach acts well, casting himself in the lead role, and the world depicted is intriguing, though somewhat far-fetched and unintroduced. Towards the end, things really kick off and the film gets to showcase a number of convincing practical effects, but the slow beginning is somewhat awkwardly put together, especially if you don't exactly provide the background with any context.

Initially intriguing but soon deadly boring science fiction film about a convicted man (director Mark Fischbach) carrying out an obscure mission in a submarine on the barren moon AT-5 (not to be confused with the Amsterdam television station). Throughout the entire film, we find ourselves inside the submarine, a gimmick that quickly becomes tedious, partly due to the lack of a compelling plot. Half an hour could easily have been cut from this. Fischbach doesn't do too badly in the lead role and he has something to offer as a director as well, but the ultra-slow pace and lack of action come at the expense of suspense and mystery.
