Short Movie Synopsis

Perched on the hull of a wrecked Soviet freighter, a team of deep-sea miners led by head oceanographer Steven Beck comes face to face with a mutant creature that’s the product of a failed genetic experiment.

Why is this a good horror movie?

Ernie Hudson’s performance in this film was forever linked to every horror movie that I watched after this one. The best “real” acting if you were ever put in this situation.
