A fun bad movie!, 14 November 2003
Author: Death_gothica

My rating: **1/2 stars out of ****.



A doctor (Mark Dacascos) is hired by Clair Sommer(Robin McKeek,"speed" (1994)) to find a man who is doining illegal experiments on a alien DNA sample found in a creature's skeletal remains. As it turns out, a creature that looks like a cross between a lizard, a body builder, and a tropical fish. It soon start's killing off the other team members.

"DNA" might be cheesy as hell, but the creature effects are great, I LOVE the creature's design, too.
