Lead us not into temptation but deliver us from evil.

In the Sahara desert, a sandstorm batters a deserted drilling station. A security patrolman battles through the high winds to investigate why all contact with the station has been lost. Originally built for gas exploration, and then abandoned, the site had recently been taken over by a multi-national research team intent on drilling deeper into the earth’s crust than ever before.

The handsome but pretty charm-free Adrian Paul (a sort of cross between Colin Farrell and Mel Gibson) is "Jack". He is despatched to a remote desert facility to check up after they lose contact with the outside world. Once he arrives, he encounters "JC" (Kate Nauta) who explains that her boss "Borman" (Anthony Waller) had accidentally released something malevolent during their deep earth excavations that caused them all to turn on each other and now most of them are keeping the freezer compartment warm. He just wants to get the hell out of there but his boss "Kat" (Amanda Douge) urges him to await the police - and yep, you've guessed it - he starts to have hallucinations that lead him to suspect his new-found companion. Just for added value, we also have a wandering Russian scientist in this remotely arid place who just happens to be passing with some gas... Yes, enough already - this is just sci-fi channel nonsense with a C-list cast that really struggles to hold the interest for more than the occasional shower scene. The story is thin, the dialogue thinner and it takes quite a while to go nowhere fast. I really can't think of anything more constructive to write aside from - I wouldn't bother if I were you.
