Just when you thought the place was clean., 5 November 2004

Author: Michael O'Keefe from Muskogee OK

This Sci-Fi creature feature could easily be flushed. The story line is just too familiar to be that interesting. An out of commission oil rig in the North Sea is being given an enzyme clean with some highly hazardous chemicals. The oil company sends Dr. Christine Hansen(Saskia Gould)to the site to see what the delay in completion is. No sooner than she arrives and realizes the cleaning agent has not been mixed properly renegade environmental activists try to commandeer the abandoned rig. Too soon it is discovered that the bio-hazard chemicals have helped spawn a big ass eel-like parasite with intentions to have all occupants for lunch, dinner and a snack. The enemies put aside their differences to work together in hopes of surviving the attacks of the savage new life form. Other cast members: Conrad Whitaker, Michelle Acunda, Gary Condes, Luke Spenser and G.W. Stevens.
