Just a few days ago we gave you word of a fantastic-sounding project called AMPHIBIOUS 3D, which is directed by Brian Yuzna (BRIDE OF RE-ANIMATOR, ROTWEILLER). It's basically about a giant aquatic scorpion that is conjured by black magic and terrorizes Indonesia. Dig it.

The fiends over at Undead Backbrain got their hands on a few pics, which you can see above and below... Check out the uber-frickin-long synopsis: Marine biologist, Skylar Shane [Janna Fassaert], hires an expat charter boat captain, Jack Bowman [Michael Paré], to help her find prehistoric life form samples in the north Sumatran Sea. During the expedition, they run into some of Jack’s ‘friends’, a gang of smugglers headquartered on a fishing platform in the middle of the sea. Tamal, an orphan sold into servitude on the fishing platform by his uncle, a ‘Dukun’ [sorcerer and master of black magic] shaman, begs Skylar to take him away. She empathizes with the boy, who reminds her of her lost daughter, Rebecca, and is determined to help him, not knowing what lurks beneath the dark inky water, waiting to surface. Once Tamal arrives on the scene, mysterious things begin to happen, until one by one the smugglers are killed by a terrifying creature from the deep. In the middle of an eerie, violent storm, the animus inside Tamal grows stronger, calling for the ancient creature of his nightmares. Now Skylar and Jack must battle the terror – once locked deep in the abyss by an old civilization, as it is now about to resurface…

Most marine biologists have names like "Skylar Stone", right?

The flick, shot in Stereoscopic 3D, is now in post-production, with a MAY 2010 release planned. Head on over HERE to check out a few behind-the-scenes pics.
