A biologist signs up for a dangerous, secret expedition into a mysterious zone where the laws of nature don't apply.

A slow paced storyline which takes a while to get going, so patience is needed..
The visual effects are outstanding what there was of them.
Performances were for the most part good and are complimented by haunting music score.
One for Sci-Fi addicts and definitely worth a watch.
