After finding a webbed claw from a wall of limestone, an archaeologist, a marine life specialist, and the other institute doctors team up to fund a more thorough investigation. Over the next eight days, their team dig up the limestone but find nothing. They continue the search to a lagoon at the end of the river hoping to find more fossils but their arrival isn't welcomed by a dangerous, humanlike amphibian living there. This is another solid entry of 'human is the real monster' film and it's got surpsrisingly quite a lot of monster actions. Technically, this is a very difficult film to make. The actor in the suit is one incredible swimmer! The underwater shots are amazing and it's made not easy to see to give it claustrophobic danger feel to it. It's amazing how they're able to achieve that. The score really helps as well creating the tension. The creature suit design still looks incredible and the growl it makes is so chilling. Unfortunately, when it's not underwater, this film loses me. I guess I'm just not interested in the love triangle parts. It’s a classic though so i’ll still give it some loving.
