Viewing Notes
Another ALIENesque film. Following the grand tradition of that film and something like THE THING this features an isolated crew dealing with something otherworldly. A crew under the sea nearing the end of a 90 day stretch of bottom-of-the-ocean mining and the shit hits the fan. Some fun and interesting creature design, not to mention DANIEL FREAKING STERN!!! Wish he was in this a bit more.
This really does take ALIEN and THE THING and put them both together, for too many reasons to list here. Worthwhile nonetheless.
