GOOD GOLD STANDARD FORMULA FILM
This is your typical horror film. The first scene gives us a glimpse of the creature with a killing. We then establish characters and their relationships. Then back to the creature confrontation.

Sheriff Tatum (Carl Savering) and Todd (Robert Belushi, son of James Belushi and Sandra Davenport) are the police officers in a small southern town where there was once a gold mine. Todd has stress issues. In an early tease scene they catch two people parking: Tatum's son and Todd's sister Veronica (Evie Thompson). Todd has stress relief sessions with Theresa (Cathy Shim) while Veronica is best friends with Theresa'a sister (Olivia Ku). Their mother knows about the curse of the mine.

The film is not without flaws. The history was questionable. Chinese miners in the south in 1840? Not likely. The photograph shown from that era was clearly not from that era. A half face paper filter mask for methane gas? Of course when you are dealing with a two headed gold eating...

Awful
Simply crappy made-for-cable monster flick with some of the worst CGI this side of a film made by The Asylum. The title creation is laughable and the film has fade-to-blacks where the commercials were supposed to be shown. Don't waste your time.

great B movie
This movie was a lot of fun -- it was great to see Mrs. Cunningham in a movie, and Cathy Shim was fantastic, as always. I really dug this -- worth the money!
