A top recon team step in when an alien invasion shuts down the planet in Russian action sci-fi The Blackout: Invasion Earth, and we have an exclusive behind-the-scenes look at the making of the film!

But first, here is a synopsis of The Blackout: Invasion Earth…

When the end comes for civilization, it will not be terrorism or nuclear war that causes it, but ‘The Blackout’. An unexplained phenomenon has struck the Earth. Contact between most towns on Earth has been severed. A small area in Eastern Europe is the only location that still has electricity.

When military forces venture outside, they discover a shocking truth – corpses everywhere. In stores, in cars, on roads, in hospitals and railway stations. Who or what is destroying all life on Earth? And how long can the last outpost of mankind endure? It’s up to a crack squad of troops to investigate, venturing into a no-man’s land to confront the threat, whatever it might be – and exterminate it at all costs!

Said to Chernobyl crossed with Battle: Los Angeles, with a touch of Predator, this Russian sci-fi blockbuster sees a future world teetering on oblivion. Featuring hi-tech effects, heavy-duty military equipment, bloody bear attacks and a suicide mission to end them all, The Blackout: Invasion Earth sees the fate of humanity resting in the hands of a group of heavily armoured, but massively overmatched soldiers (headed by Aleksey Cahdov, star of Nightwatch), and a lone female journalist.

The situation doesn’t feel quite so dire behind the cameras of The Blackout: Invasion Earth as our exclusive behind-the-scenes video shows below. In fact, it looks like the cast and crew of the movie had a great time making the sci-fi action! See for yourselves…

Out at the end of this year, if this making-of clip is anything to go by, we’ll certainly have a hell of a ride with The Blackout: Invasion Earth! 

The Blackout: Invasion Earth will be released on 28 December on Blu-ray, DVD and digital platforms.
