The Thing Below
Fear is rising
Directed by Jim Wynorski
Produced by Hellfire Productions, Insight Film Studios
A claustrophobic creature-horror thriller about an alien threat awakened in an isolated drilling station, driven by survival tension and paranoia rather than character depth.
A top secret drilling platform in the Gulf of Mexico raises a dormant alien creature from the depths. Once loose, the creature goes on a murderous rampage.
