Watch I Am Alone

"I Am Alone" is a post-apocalyptic adventure thriller film released in 2015, directed by Robert A. Palmer, co-written by Palmer and Michael A. Weiss, and starring Gunner Wright, Gareth David-Lloyd, and Marshal Hilton in lead roles. The movie is set in the present time and follows the story of Jacob Fitts (Gunner Wright), a renowned blogger, and survival specialist. Jacob is on a solo journey through the remote wilderness of Utah, documenting his experiences for his followers. Meanwhile, an unexplained and deadly virus originating from China, spreads rapidly across the world, causing humanity to crumble.

Jacob is oblivious to the pandemic as he ventures across the wilderness, but soon realizes that something is very wrong as he discovers empty roads, abandoned vehicles, and decaying corpses. He is alarmed when he does not receive any response to his worldwide radio broadcasts or inquire about his family from anyone.

As Jacob frantically tries to connect with his family and followers, he encounters a British man, named Edward (Gareth David-Lloyd), and together, they make their way towards a rumored government-run safe haven. Along the way, they face several hazards, including gunfire, explosions, and dangerous encounters with infected individuals.

Their journey is mainly centered on Jacob, his survival instincts, and his desire to connect with his only son, Sam. As he travels, Jacob takes his audience along and shares his experiences through his blog. The audience watches with bated breath as he battles his way through the wilderness, sometimes with a gun, other times with his wit, and sometimes with pure luck.

Marshal Hilton plays Milo, the most difficult character in the movie. He is a volatile and unpredictable man, who becomes a significant threat to Jacob and Edward's journey. Milo is a symbol of how the breakdown of society can bring out the worst in people. Milo is a chaotic character that the audience will love to hate. His unpleasant attitude and activities create a lot of tension for the trio on their journey.

The movie is intense, with excellent cinematography and an excellent soundtrack that emphasizes the dire and gloomy atmosphere that permeates the world. Moreover, there is no need for massive explosions or gore to convey the sense of chaos and destruction.

The movie's title, "I Am Alone," is not just Jacob's physical isolation, but also his acute sense of loneliness. After all, in a post-apocalyptic world where billions have perished or gone missing, the mere presence of another person is enough to cheer him up, even if they're a little untrustworthy or insane.

The film's plot is intense, and the audience experiences anxiety while watching, grasping each turning point with an urgency for the characters' survival. Every character has its motivations, and the plot thickens as each of their stories is revealed.

"I Am Alone" is an exceptional example of indie filmmaking. The film was made on a tight budget and limited cast but the acting, storyline, audio, and visuals are all top-notch. The film shows that ingenuity and creativity can produce excellent movies with a limited budget.

In conclusion, "I Am Alone" is a compelling movie, unlike most post-apocalyptic movies. The movie is entirely character-driven, combined with excellent subplots, and a surprising ending that will keep you entertained throughout. A must-watch for anyone who enjoys the genre and is looking for a fresh take.

I Am Alone is a 2017 science fiction movie with a runtime of 1 hour and 28 minutes. It has received mostly poor reviews from critics and viewers, who have given it an IMDb score of 4.5.
