In “Slash/Back,” something sinister from outer space lands a stone’s throw from the Arctic Circle, and humanity’s first line of defense proves to be a group of Inuit girls armed with nothing but their wits and a bunch of traditional hunting and fishing tools. In most low-budget alien-invasion movies, the heroes/victims are fairly generic, whereas the extraterrestrial threat is what draws the crowd. But Native helmer Nyla Innuksuk (who co-wrote with Ryan Cavan) turns that equation inside out, making this spunky band of save-the-world teens the main reason to see her movie — although the novel far-north location and reasonably fresh monster effects don’t hurt.Slash Back 2022 Full Movie Download
Innuksuk shot her debut in and around Pangnirtung, a tiny fishing community in the Canadian territory of Nunavut, where the sun never sets. Surrounded by snowy tundra, this gorgeous, remote location looks out on distant mountains, suggesting a less-intense version of John Carpenter’s “The Thing” during an early scene, when a tentacle lashes out from a smoking hole in the ice, killing an American geologist. That’s a bloody but satisfying tease of what’s to come, after which things take a turn into more kid-friendly territory on both sides of the camera.Working in the spirit of “The Adventures of Sharkboy and Lavagirl” director Robert Rodriguez, Innuksuk evidently made the film as much for adolescent audiences as for the participants themselves, holding acting workshops from which she assembled her young cast. Tasiana Shirley plays stir-crazy Maika, who wears a leather jacket with the words “No Justice on Stolen Land” spray-painted across the back and who dreams of leaving this backwater for somewhere more exciting. Her parents have given up fighting, whereas she and her friends — Jesse (Alexis Vincent-Wolfe), Leena (Chelsea Pruksy) and Uki (Nalajoss Ellsworth) — still hope to make a difference, but don’t know what to do with their frustrated energy.
