Review:
Not a bad little sci-fi thriller at all really and it has a decent cast to boot. Some scientists find a huge spaceship in the ocean and of course they go aboard to investigate. Oddly everything seems undamaged, but the ship has a few unearthly surprises of it's own. Of course our scientists are running around for their lives, and at least it does deliver on a few deaths and whatnot making it satisfying as a horror film and as a sci-fi picture. Sure it gets a little silly and ridiculous in places, but for the most part it tries to be thrilling and it often does succeed. It's definitely a little too long, but for the most part it's at least entertaining and that is all I ask.
