A
group of cave divers and scientists
explore a newly found cave in Romania. A
rockfall blocks their exit. They delve
further into the cave and discover some
unusual looking small sea creatures but
then they spot these gigantic prehistoric
looking ones too that have wings. They
are parasites that kills and eats people.
They notice that their head scientist
named Jack (Cole Hauser) starts to have
strange side effects and begins to behave
like these creatures.
Were these creatures once humans too and
then were turned into something deadly
and monstrous?
They must go further into the cave to
find a way out even if it means
sacrificing their own lives by battling
these creatures.
This was an
exciting film as you are waiting for the
terror to begin.
I was almost thinking of the flick the Boogens
when I heard about the plot. This seemed
to borrow more elements with flicks like
Mimic and Aliens
but it does carry a story on its own.
Great effects too as this film wasn't the
highest budgeted one so we have to give
the makers great credit for what they put
into it and is watchable all the way
through. You don't want to miss a thing
with this one.
The acting is
good. I'm glad to see Cole Hauser still
working ever since I saw him in my
favourite movie Dazed &
Confused. He does well when he
is starting to show his evil side growing
when he slowly turns into a parasite.
Plus his performnace seems to make him
seem older than he really is. He
certainly fills his fathers boots which
is the b-film icon Wings Hauser
and is already making a bigger success
too.
Some people are
getting killed an eaten as well as small
creatures chewed up.
Oh yes, Bruce
Hunt is the man to make this film
look great.
He knows how to direct every bit of the
scerarios happening and keeping the
viewers peeled to the set.
He shows great scenes of the cave and the
other surroundings as well as the
suspenseful happenings with the giant
parasites attacking.
The music is also amazing
with the dark low keyboard playing when
the researchers go underwater.
Reinhold Heil and Johnny
Klimek sure know how to compose a
film making it suitable for the story.
We also get a songtrack
titled "Nemo" performed by Nightwish
Charlie:
They fly! They frickin' fly!
Kathryn:
At first, I thought it couldn't survive
outside of a cave environment. Now, I'm
not sure. I think it wants to get out.
