Favourite line: | "The fire from Beyond will be released, bringing a world of lust and violence." |
Two young boys go to pay one last visit to a town before it is sank beneath water so a dam can be built, but they stumble across a strange ritual and one of them is killed.
Blast forward to the present, and a photo journalist arrives in town to take some snaps, and he, together with a female companion, start to uncover what really happened all those years ago. You see, a Crowley-esque cult was using the place for worship, and their legacy still lives on.
Some decent underwater photography, some good effects - the cop hacking his own legs off is particularly entertaining - and ok performances make this more than watchable. The usual Yuzna themse of cultism and nasty, rotting things are present, and Yuzna never really fails to deliver the horror goods.
A decent horror film.
