Cameron's Marvellous Close Encounters Of The Sea Kind. Special Edition A deep sea oil crew are called upon by the military to investigate the events that saw an American Nuclear Submarine crash down in the abyss. As the crew, and their hot headed Navy Seal passengers, get down deeper, it would seem they are not alone down there.

The area where it was lost has become something of a “Bermuda Triangle” with mysterious power surges and electrical failures but luckily (?) they have the help of navy SEAL “Lt. Coffey” (Michael Biehn) and his team of gun-toters to assist as they dive deep under the ocean. Things doesn’t quite go to plan and they are dragged even deeper, where she is convinced that they are not alone - and that what they...
