Overview
The staff and vacationers at a first-class resort on the island of Maui are beginning to mysteriously disappear. A biologist believes that an underwater earthquake has caused a giant and very hungry dormant prehistoric fish to be released from its slumber. The fish voraciously helps itself to a tourist buffet. Now it is open season for the local fishermen to find and kill the creature.

How It Feels
Read from this film's synopsis, keywords and credits, and used to work out what it sits beside.
A creature feature that trades subtlety for spectacle, watching a resort descend into chaos as an unseen prehistoric predator picks off swimmers and tourists. It's pure B-movie tension, the kind of film where vacation comfort collapses into panic.
