4 of 5 The Thing Underwater Friday, December 03, 1999
Kris Jones from Claremont, California  

I saw this movie a long time ago and it wasn't that bad. The plot was similar to Alien, or Deep Star Six, but nonetheless, it had some good moments. The mutated monster effects were really cool. The best thing is that the creature grows using the bodies of the dead scientists. Unlike Alien, its set underwater, which makes it more claustrophobic and interesting. Worth a watch.
