This is the new Alien!!!


OMG what a movie! this film totally changed my opinion on low budget action/thriller/fantasy/disaster/horror movies! it was the most entertaining viewing ive had in sum time! i would give it a four out of five. if only they had cast Eric Roberts as the lead, although many companies are priced out of hiring a hollywood heavyweight like eric roberts.i must say tho Jay Harringtons first main lead performance was absolutelly astounding, he is reminiscant of a young Steve Buscemi, heroic yet.....understated. i also thot Ricco Ross made a startling return to our screens, he done a lot with the token loud black guy role, made it his own and omg in those tight pants, lets just say i was one palpatation away from homosexuality!!

carolyn lowry was outstanding, its a shame she didnt have a male cast member available to build up sexual chemistry with, mainly due to the sexual chemistry between Jay Harrington and Ravil Isyanov ( casper ) i also loved the tense exchanges between casper and roy which seemed to go on and on and on.....and then on again.

Anyhoo this film was a joy to watch....James Cameron didnt make it? i am shocked.

The CGI was amazing and at times the octopus effects actually convinced that theyd used a real octopus!
