Stephen
Reynolds has sent word that Tomb Raider Ascension,
a 'fan produced' motion picture based on the woes
of Lara Croft,
is now available to watch on the film's official
web site. Don't let the 'fan film' moniker fool
you either, Tomb Raider Ascension is a finely
crafted adventure with stunning cinematography
accompanied by more than respectable performances
from the cast.
From
the official web site: "After surviving for two
weeks in the Himalayas, after a fatal plane crash
in which everyone but Lara is killed, including
her mother, Lara awakes in hospital with no memory
of how she got there. Distraught over the loss
of her mother Lara points the finger at her Father
for cutting their holiday short and bringing them
home, causing a rift between them and breaking
up what was left of the Croft family.
"Now
four years on and after a stint in the army, Lara
returns home to find her Uncle Errol is organising
a funeral for her Father, who has been missing
for three years. It is not long before she learns
that both her father and his brother, both respected
archeologists, have been searching for the same
thing for a number of years. The Ascension Stone.
"A
sacred artifact created by the ancient Mayan Civilization
in Mexico hundreds of years ago, believed to hold
the secrets behind the end of the Mayan calendar
in 2012. With the family butler, Winston, educating
her about everything he has learned from her Father
about the Ascension Stone, Lara heads off to follow
her first lead buried in an ancient mine deep
in the heart of England.
"Once
down there she discovers more than she had ever
hoped for and soon realises her Uncle has answers
to questions she has been asking for a long time."
