About
If you enjoy underwater monster thrills with gooey effects and a brisk, pulpy vibe, this is a solid pick; Not for you if you want originality or a consistently serious tone like The Relic.
Pros: fun creature-feature energy; strong practical effects; solid cast chemistry | Cons: familiar Alien/Thing vibes; uneven pacing; messy late stretch
