Airborne (2012 film)

Airborne is a 2012 horror film written by Paul Chronnell and directed by Dominic Burns, who describes Airborne as a tongueincheek film in the tradition of The Twilight Zone. A first trailer was released in 2011. It was reported in the media that it presents Mark Hamills first appearance in a British film, however Hamill had acted previously in the 1982 British film Britannia Hospital. Airbornes introduction, before sporting a voiceover by Mark Hamill, refers in writing to a socalled Firelight Protocol.

The hijackers intend to steal and sell both the plane and an ancient vase being transported on board which, according to legend, acts as a prison for a death god. The passengers try to hinder the hijackers but they are unable to overpower them and instead wind up tied to the seats of the plane, the hijackers planning to use them as hostages.Meanwhile, air traffic control becomes alarmed they have lost radio contact with the plane as it first veers off course and then disappears from radar. They alert the authorities, who assume the plane has been taken over by terrorists and send fighter aircraft to intercept it. As fighter planes take off and close in on the airliner the wouldbe hostages escape their bonds. The people on the hijacked airliner begin to go violently crazy, killing themselves and each other without apparent reason the incorporeal death god has been released from the vase and is possessing people, trying to find a suitable host. ........
