      • Trivia
        Kane Hodder, who plays Jason Vorhees in several Friday the 13th movies was the stunt coordinator for this film.
      • Goofs
        When Snyder is accessing the computer system for the procedure to secure the missiles, the computer asks him to define "abandoned." The first choice offered reads, "Abandoned for repair or or removal," with the word "or" duplicated.
      • Quotes

        James 'Jim' Richardson: Well, at least Snyder will get his name in the Guinness book of records. I mean, causing two nuclear explosions in one afternoon has to be some sort of record.

      • Alternate versions
        The German VHS release by Cannon/VMP while uncut in terms of violence contains about five minutes of cuts to the story, which results in numerous plot continuity issues. The DVD and Blu-ray releases are completely uncensored in Germany.

      7/10

      Better than it has any right to be.

      Okay, it's no The Abyss or anything, but for a knock-off of a knock-off, it's pretty damn decent.

      The effects, though pretty low budget, are nonetheless well done. The creature design is pretty cool. The characters are likeable and well-written enough to keep me invested in what was happening.

      It's no game changer to be sure, but if you're looking for some b-movie monster fun, you could certainly do much worse than this.
