"The size of a dragon... And something about eyes, cat's eyes. And the old man, the Indian. Didn't he describe that creature as being a part of everything in God's creation?" - Dr. Robert Verne

Why watch this? ... to see if you are brave enough to endure the creature...

Plot Summary: This horror film follows an environmental agent and his wife to a logging operation in Maine where a dispute has arisen between the company and a local Native American tribe. They investigate accusations that the paper mill is poisoning the environment and discover a horrifying truth lurking in the wilderness. Soon, they become entangled in a terrifying fight for survival against something terribly dangerous.

  Dad's Preview: This film is special to me because my best friend, DQ, aka "Man of Action", narrated the entire plot to me late one night when sleeping over. I was terrified and couldn't wait to see the monster movie. His narration was spot on, because this film scared the living f*&# out of me, especially the night scenes, where the creature is lurking in the forest, just out of sight, planning its next pounce. It may seem a little campy now, but I still can't watch it at night alone without all the lights on. It's coming for you! In the dark!
