OK, I have to admit I was skeptical when my sister-in-law, the Mermaid, told me how great this movie was...I've certainly sat through enough really terrible 'the monster is killing everyone' flicks to qualify for a gold medal (anyone remember Anaconda? or Virus? those REALLY sucked)...but I have to admit, the Mermaid knew whereof she spoke.

This is a classy, funny, suspenseful movie, full of excellent characters like the two handymen (Kevin Bacon and Fred Ward) and the gun-totin' survivalists (Michael Gross and Reba McEntire) Yup, there's blood and body parts galore, enough to make even an otter happy, but it's a great ride, and the end is perfect.

Lean back, pop a beer, and enjoy.
