Trivia, insights & behind the scenes
This aired on USA Network in 1997, part of their 'USA Original Movie' slate that also birthed cinematic giants like 'Ice Spiders' and 'Mansquito.'
Director Joe Napolitano spent most of his career on 'The X-Files,' which explains why this feels like a rejected monster-of-the-week with the supernatural elements surgically removed.
