Overview
A group of grad students have booked passage on the fishing trawler Harbinger to study the effects of global warming on a pod of Orcas in the Bering Sea. When the ship’s crew dredges up a recently thawed piece of old Soviet space wreckage, things get downright deadly. It seems that the Russians experimented with tardigrades, tiny resilient animals able to withstand the extremes of space radiation. The creatures survived, but not without mutation. Now the crew is exposed to aggressively mutating organisms. And after being locked in ice for 3 decades, the creatures aren’t about to give up the warmth of human companionship.

Viewing Notes
Remember when we were all super-stoked on those guys from the Stan Winston effects studio making a practical effects-heavy creature feature called Harbinger Down. And they asked us super-stoked dudes and… (shit – dudettes sounds stupid, but i don’t know what female dudes are. just know, you’re included too, ladies) to pay for it? And we were like, “HELL YES WE’LL PAY FOR IT! WE LOVE PRACTICAL EFFECTS!”? And then we paid for it? And then we promptly forgot about it? Oh, what heady days. Well, you don’t have to live the rest of your life not knowing if the finished product (yes, they finished it) was any good or not because I’m reviewing it!
