Movie quotes

  • (..) dark there. You can't see a thing. The only thing they can see down there is... This horrible creature with razor-sharp teeth! Nice parry. He has to blast his way... These fish have been searching the ocean for days on the East Australian Current. He may be on his way here right now. (..)
