Attack of the Demojordan

In a near-future metropolis teetering on the brink of collapse, a brilliant but tormented scientist, Dr. Aris Thorne (Michael B. Jordan), unleashes a terrifying new bio-weapon derived from extraterrestrial DNA. Designed to protect humanity, the 'Demogorgons' quickly spiral out of control, transforming into monstrous predators that begin to hunt the city's inhabitants. Thorne, alongside a determined military commander (Zoe Saldaña) and a grizzled survivor (Idris Elba), must race against time to find a way to neutralize his creation before it consumes everything.

Critically, 'Attack of the Demojordan' has been met with a mixed to positive reception. While lauded for its ambitious visual effects and intense action sequences, some critics found the plot derivative and predictable. Audiences, however, have responded more favorably, drawn to the star power and the film's sheer spectacle.
