The Black Demon
In THE BLACK DEMON, oil company inspector Paul Sturges (Josh Lucas) is sent to a small town in Baja to check on an oil rig called "El Diamante." Having fond memories of the town, he brings his wife, Ines (Fernanda Urrejola), and their two kids -- teen Audrey (Venus Ariel) and younger brother Tommy (Carlos Solórzano) -- along for a vacation. When they arrive, they discover that the town is in ruins, a shell of its former self. There seems to be some urgency to get Paul out to the rig, so he catches the first boat, leaving his family on shore. He discovers not only that the rig is also dilapidated and hazardous, but also that there's a megalodon shark prowling the waters below. Unfortunately, Paul's family decides to follow him, and they all wind up stranded on the rig, along with the two remaining workers, Chato (Julio Cesar Cedillo) and Junior (Jorge A. Jimenez). Worse, time is running out for the rig itself.
