An okay premise sunk by substandard acting

JoeB131

The premise of this film is simple enough. A Cold War project is buried beneath a forgotten army base, and is unwittingly unleashed by a cleanup crew dismantling the base before demolition.

The son of the scientist who devised the organism knows there is something horrible, and attempts to warn the Army before it is too late. INstead, the creature is released, threatening the town.

My common complaint with movies featuring the military is that they have no idea how the military is structured. Skilled scientists would be given higher ranks than specialist and private, while officers involved with such a project would have more technical knowledge.

The movie drags in a lot of places, as though they know they only have 30 minutes of story to fill out an hour and a half bag. still, okay to watch, not really great but okay.

score 3/10
