Trivia:
Writer Lewis Abernathy sold his script at the same time that friend James Cameron was working on his own "underwater monster saga". Despite Cameron's asking that he delay this movie to avoid competing with The Abyss (1989), Abernathy went ahead and was thereby deemed persona non grata with Cameron and associates until they patched together their friendship when Abernathy accompanied Cameron on the September 1995 filming of the wreck of the Titanic for Titanic (1997) (but not any actual dives to the wreck itself).

Goofs:
Factual errors: Richardson performs electric arc welding outside of the station, at the bottom of the ocean, several thousand meters deep. At present, underwater welding is not technically possible deeper than approx. 1000 meters (3300 feet) underwater.

Isn't well known fact,but this underwater horror has cult status in some countries.
The message is clear for me personally,here is a horror film,with great acting,screenplay,and great visuals.
People don't understand,and rate this movie in a good way(most of them).
This movie is not an Alien type of a movie,but lot of people talking about this film like some version of Alien movies,while this is based on another concept,for me personally it's about something else.
We have sensitivity like a stone,and moral like a door,when we making research's for science,cause we think we can do anything to be the alpha-and anything else in this world.
See this if you think you are open to something really scary.
