- Right up the alley of anyone who believes we're not alone and people who like to watch through their fingers. The aliens are the hook, but the human reactions are the story. Same wavelength as Predator.
- The mood
- Scary.

- Keeps the tension tight, at 1 hr 28 min. Done before bedtime.
- What might put you off
- Rated R: meant for adults.
- Skip it if you scare easily or watch alone at night.
After someone is killed in the subterranean project called "Shadowzone," a NASA captain is called in to investigate. In the project, sleeping subjects are induced into a deep EDS state whereby they become portals to a parallel universe. Unfortunately this causes adverse reactions in the subject, and something gets through the portal, the consequence of which is an attrition problem.
