Ok! That bit with the people's it's absorbed all wailing for help might just the the creepiest thing I, in my B-movie obsessed, Moffat-era-Who-living existence have ever seen.
Hey, can someone help me? I'm looking for a movie that came on Sci-Fi several years ago. From what I can remember, it was about a shark-type creature that had developed/evolved an amphibious nature, becoming a kind of humanoid shark. Anyone remember the title?
@fortune7557 Not really. but then again this is poor quality transmission. watch it on netflix then you'll actually be able to see more of the monsters. i was able to see it's fins and it's tail along with it's tentacles when i actually watched it. but it's really hard to see charlie completely. yes the monster's name is charlie. should've been proteus but instead the genetic virus is called proteus.
1:47 LINDA HELP ME!! LINDA WHERE ARE YOU!! XD Creepy and disturbing the thing never did that though in fact how come it would've actually tempted the main characters not to kill it but then again the thing is an plant/celluar/animal/alien plus it's allot more aggressive and pretty much rapidly mutates into whatever creatures it assimlated from their cells
Did anyone here someone say "help me" when that shark like monster just broke out of that girl's body cause I swear I did. This monster reminds me of the one off of leviathan in fact the two are very close actually except this one had a different body structure and has the head of a shark while the other one had the head of some sort of dragonfish.
You know this is also a ripoff of a anime movie "AKIRA", just think of it that thing is crying out for help and so does Tetsuo, when he needed help from Kaneda.
Still doesn't stop the fact that both Tetsuo and Charlie (the monster in this movie) were both insanely powerful (in their respective continuities-- Tetsuo outclasses Charlie by FAR when they're compared to each other) as well as completely **batshit** insane-- despite the fact that they were crying out for help wouldn't have stopped either of them from killing the protagonist; the only way to 'help' either of them would be to put them out of their (and thus everyone ELSE'S) misery.
I don't know if it's the transfer or the actual film but it's too dark through most of this movie. Did the cinematographer mess up with the lightmeter?
Low budget, yes, bad acting, sure, complete ripoff, definitely, but that doesn't mean that it isn't fun...I saw this movie at an early age, and fell in love with it, a love affair that continues to this day, even though now I can see the flaws clearly evident in this film. That happen with anyone else here? Also, I have been scouring the Internet looking for DVD copies of Proteus, and cannot find anything beyond VHS...if anyone has found a DVD copy, please post here as to where you found it!
actually i had the same experience, i´ve been looking for a copy on DVD, but no luck, the closest thing i got was downloading it using ¨eMule¨, it took WEEKS but i finally downloaded the film, however they´re FRENCH and SPANISH dubbed versions, still haven´t been able to locate an ENGLISH version :-(
let me see what i can do, either ill upload it(in parts as most people do it)or ill upload the whole movie file some where and provide you guys with the LINK, just hang on and give me a few days to do it ;p...Thanx 4 posting n_n
yeah, me too, it's badass!!, even for a low budget, it was directed by BOB KEEN, the guy who did some make-up FX on Clive Barker's HELLRAISER and Neill Marshall's DOG SOLDIERS, and the musical score by JOHN MURPHY(28 Days/Weeks Later & Sunshine),it's one of those cool british B-Movie gems!! (xD)

It was available on DVD in the US. I have a copy as I was involved with the making of the film.
It was shot entirely in the east end of London. Never went anywhere near water - the oil rig was built in the car park.
Yes it was low budget - but the producer went on to make My Big Fat Greek Wedding.
