Oxygen had elements of Star Trek: First Contact and 2001: A Space Odyssey.
HAL the murdering computer, pre-programmed to kill its crew.
The Zombie crew sort of assimilated its victims with the hand. What did the Borg do?
The suits in Oxygen looked similar to the First Contact space suits with the gravity boots bar the LED mini blue lights.
Even the sound of the gun firing sounded similar to the sound effect of the laser gun Worf fired in First Contact.
Its just me being a picky bastard again.
Last weeks episode was fairly enjoyable, but like others have said on here, let down by a rather crap ending. Suchet was superb though. Wanted him to be more than just the son. He would of been terrific as a recurring villain. If only.
Oxygen proved to be a rather satisfying story overall. 7/10 from me.
