satellitepictures Isolated frozen base camp. Something going strange? Sound familiar? Take The Thing and sub a dog sized, killer trilobyte in place of the alien entity and you still have not come close to Carpenter's classic. The acting is bad but I do admit I have seen worse. The only thing this movie is better than is those made at home videotaped movies where the sets are someone's bedroom made to look like a lab or they spend the entire film in the woods near their house. At least this is on film and the sets look halfway decent. Not huge budget, but like I said, it isn't someone's basement they are trying to tell you is a laboratory. Every time the bug attacks someone the movie has quick cut flashbacks. I suppose this is supposed to represent someone's life flashing before their eyes before they die, but the problem is since we have only seen these people for a few minutes, that is all the flash back to. Here he is arriving, here he is eating, here he is entering this room, boom he's dead. What makes it funnier is that one of the guy's flashbacks was edited wrong (the helicopter pilot) so one of the flash parts in the sequence isn't even his but a character that has not yet died. So you know ahead of time who is going to die and where haha There are 2 characters that go back and forth from being interested in each other to being against each other (oil driller vs environmentalist) that really doesn't make much sense at all. Time also has no meaning in this film as the copter pilot towards the beginning states he is going to go secure the chopper at the heliport after they arrive and it seems like a few days go by and they still refer to him as securing the chopper. ???? So throw away any common sense and timing issues and you might somewhat enjoy this flick. I doubt it though.

corruptmind21 I only saw this movie because of Allen Lee Haff being in it, but I have to say that, even though it wasn't the best horror movie (can you call it a horror movie if it's not scary?) I've seen, it wasn't the worst. It certainly surpassed Rodentz! But anyway, the movie was okay, and I liked the different storyline. There were a few scenes that looked kinda fake, but a few that had some good effects to them. There was one scene though, the really ticked me off. In one scene, it shows the "creature" chasing after Allen and Rebekah's characters after it finished killing someone, and Allen has a gun, but he doesn't shoot the thing! He just runs away with the others, ending up in a situation with the creature, where he falls about 2 flights of stairs and wrestles with the creature, only to get a tiny scratch on his face and his shirt a little bit dirty. Come on. It was also amusing that Allen's character, who was supposed to be southern,-I think from Texas-kept losing his accent every now and then. Ha! The ending was rather stereotypical as well, but you gotta do something I guess. But sad to say, I kinda liked the movie, and not just because I got some Allen eye candy.~K~

mibmob I am not surprised that there are no goofs for this film as the whole film is a goof. There is no perceptible plot, the FX - rubber "trilobites" (were they carnivorous?) are laughable and the clichés - if you smoke you're first to go, if you have pre-marital sex you're next - are ridiculous. We know who will live and who will die within the first 20 mins and we don't give a monkey's as to who survives. Plan 9 from Outer Space seems like Ridley Scott compared with this heap of hokum. Avoid all films that have Deep at the beginning - Deep Impact, Deep Rising and Deep Freeze are all naff.

siu01msb For the love of God, people please do NOT see this movie!I can honestly say that this is the worst movie I've seen to date (and I'm a big fan of B-Movie horror films!).The storyline is basically non-existent and I found myself having to *force* myself to watch the film through to the end. The creature effects are very poor (until about the last 5-10 minutes, and even then they're worse than something from Buffy), and the death scenes are the worst I've ever seen (and let's face it, in this kind of movie, the death scenes are all you watch 'em for).Overall, a BAD movie (and not in the "bad, but amusing cheesy" way). Stay well clear! And don't say you weren't warned....
