This very-cheap and not-very-cheerful sci-fi actioner sees a U.S. Space Force team sent on a rescue mission to one of Saturn's moons (i.e. Pandora) where they get attacked by the water tentacle effect from The Abyss and try to stop the sentient water - hell-bent on infecting the squad - from getting off the planet. For a lot of the film it is effectively a bottle show, as the rescuers get holed up in the spaceship's medical bay and shout at each other, but there are some occasional ambitious and reasonable CG effects on offer. There are some interesting and wildly varied interpretations of the art of acting on display, with sounding angry and unwarrantedly hysterical seeming to be the default mode that becomes very wearing to watch.
