About this movie

A group of grad students have booked upon the fishing trawler Harbinger, to study the effects of global warming on a pod of Orcas in the Bering Sea. When the ship's crew dredges up a recently thawed piece of old Soviet space wreckage, things get downright deadly. It seems that the Russians experimented with tiny resilient animals able to withstand the extremes of space radiation. The creatures survived, but not without mutation. Now the crew is exposed to aggressively mutating organisms. And after being locked in ice for 3 decades, the creatures aren't about to give up the warmth of human companionship.

Ratings and reviews

It won't win any prizes for originality but if you enjoy creature features and good old fashioned practical effects then this us a movie for you. It's a bit like the "THE THING ", at sea.

It's not the worst or bad, and credit when credit is due using old school effects than being 100% CGI B-MOVIE RUBBISH, but the film was in homage to Aliens, The Thing, but Deep Star Six better.

Legendary special effects artists Tom Woodruff, Jr and Alec Gillis have created an hugely underrated body horror masterpiece. Their effects company ADI's incredible efforts making The Thing (2011) were hamstrung and so here they're allowed to go all out. Lots of gore, good characters, scripting and amazing creature design that can proudly stand shoulder to shoulder with those created by Rob Bottin and Stan Winston in The Thing (1982).
