Ep 198: Reviewing “Elevation,” a Monster Movie w/ Mac-N-Cheese & Big Heart (Anthony Mackie, 2024)

Today we’re reviewing recently-released mountainous monster movie, “Elevation” (Vertical Entertainment, 2024). Produced by Brad Fuller — who brought you all the Purge movies and all the Quiet Place films — and starring Anthony Mackie as one of the survivors of an alien apocalypse 3 years prior, we begin clustered in a 200-person village in the Colorado Rockies, where residents are menaced by unkillable monsters at any elevation lower than 8,000 feet. But necessity leads a group of survivors (Mackie, Morena Baccarin, and Maddie Hasson) to launch a perilous plan to descend 3,000 feet to the city of Boulder for medical supplies and answers. Beautifully acted, narratively thrilling, and set against some of America’s most stunning landscapes, “Elevation” (2024) represents a triumph of the human spirit.
