This movie begins with two people out in a boat with one of them diving into the ocean off the coast of Hawaii. As it so happens the diver encounters something gigantic under water and her blood is all that the person in the boat can see. In any case, when the person reports the incident the matter is kept quiet from the police mainly because the news might endanger tourist activity on the island. But it doesn't stop there as one similar incident after the other takes place which is followed by the same reluctance to disclose the event by those with their own personal agendas. Needless to say, the refusal to acknowledge the severity of the situation leads to disastrous consequences which eventually requires a response by everyone on the island. Now rather than reveal any more I will just say that, even though this same plot has been used countless times in the past, this particular film suffers in comparison due in large part to the basic script and the dreadful acting. Quite frankly, about the only good thing about this film was the presence of Susanne Reed (as "Rachel McNamara") but even then there wasn't much she could do to save this film from being a total disaster and I have rated it accordingly.
