What a waste of my time!!!

Close shines in drama with strong language, adult themes.

It is interesting even when nothing much happens, which is for most of its 3-hour running time. Read full review

Based on the novel "Slimer" written by Harry Adam Knight (AKA: John Brosnan), Proteus is just another low rent monsters on the loose picture. Plot has a bunch of drug smugglers initially thankful of finding an oil rig out at sea after their boat was wrecked by incompetence. But soon enough they realise they are not alone and floating out on a life raft may have been the better option.So it's all nutty science gone wrong as a bunch of poor actors, headed by Craig Fairbrass with big muscles and a mullet, get involved in an Alien/The Thing amalgamation. Director Bob Keen ensures things are kept dark to hide the cheapness of it all, though some icky scenes keep the pic away from total damnation. But come the arrival of Proteus in its true form, you may find yourself laughing instead of being afraid. 3/10

mildly entertaining stuff is dopey enough to be amusing but it's not really that good because of the really rotten looking creature effects and a slow first half sink it but there is a decent twist at the end and the second half is fairly entertaining it's just really nothing new and no better then average and the finale piles on the gore. the acting is so so Craig Fairbrass acts with his accent most of the time but overall he did a decent job and was fairly likable didn't like who he played though Toni Barry is okay here as Paul's girl friend and does decent as one of the heroine's not much of a part though William Marsh annoyed me plain and simple SPOILERS!!! i was glad when he got his same goes to Jennifer Calvet who also annoyed me Robert Firth is terrible as Paul. i didn't like his character either the rest of the cast do good (Doug Bradley from the Hellraiser films here in a bit role. overall an average flick nothing more nothing less only worth watching if you have nothing else to rent ** out of 5

The acting is teriible, the special effects are passable up until the climax that looks like a man in a rubber suit. the story is complete and utter nonsense about a group of drug smugglers including Craig Fairbrass (yes-Dan from Eastenders!) who end up on a abanodoned oil rig which just happens to have a nasty shape shifting monster on board. all of the movie is shot in darkness - at times complete darkness so you can't see what's going on - It might as well be a radio show. The movie is awful but somehow it keeps you watching just to see how hilarious it gets.My vote:- 6.5/10

A group of drug smuglers are ship wrecked, and seek shelter on a near-by oil rig. As it turns out, it's not a oil rig at all, but a high-security genetic engineering where things went wrong, now there's monsters running around. This has to be one of the best film's I've ever seen! Excellent special effects, spectacular monsters, creative premise, a refreshingly non-routine script.....This is perfect! I want it on DVD!!!!!!!! Great twist at the end, too.
