They enlist the help of a team of underwater drilling platform workers who are to help the deployed Navy SEALS locate the crash site. As they get closer to their destination, friction between the drilling workers and the SEALS increases. When some workers report seeing UFO's underwater, the SEALS grow increasingly suspicious and suspect a Russian mini-sub. After a series of near-fatal accidents, the workers find that they are the only people who are capable of stopping World War III. They discover a strange and mysterious force living in the deep.
