Trivia

This movie was filmed partly on the island of St. Lucia in the Caribbean. Unfortunately, the directors didn't pay enough attention to some of the local speaking "extras" who, in the scene with the young boy in the town of Soufriere, one of the locals curses a certain part of his mother's reproductive anatomy in the local Creole dialect - Patois. Oops!!! See more »

Goofs

When Lt. Richland first fires shots into the tank during the Creature attack, his gun is a Colt M1911A1. Later, when he fires some shots at Peniston's fleeing ship, his weapon is a Beretta M9. See more »

Quotes

nice television creature feature
20 March 2011 | by (Midian) – See all my reviews

First of all, this was made for television. So gorehounds do know to stay away from this flick. It was made in two parts, each part taking in a whole flick. I also noticed that a lot of Jaws freaks were searching this talked about creature feature. But it surely isn't about the great white. It's a combination between horror and science fiction. But don't think you will see some kind of Alien rip-off. It do has some scary moments but the attacks are filmed off-screen. It never is bloody or even messy like Jaws. By clocking in over 150 minutes it sometimes takes too long to keep you attracted. If they had made it a 90 minute feature it would have been very nice. Kim Catrall is in it and is showing of in diving gear for the 'sex and the city' fans. The monster, not Kim I mean, is okay, you can see that it was some kind of shark turning in a creature like that one in Creature From The Black lagoon. I didn't hate it, but it's okay to watch with your kids
