When the employees of the drilling rig and the SEAL team that accompanied descend to the wreck shows that the entire crew is killed. Though they find there an unknown creature, possibly a alien. The SEAL team decides the nuclear missiles that were present on board the sunken submarine to use to destroy the submarine. The blast that will emerge will also be lethal to everyone on board their own ship, but the SEAL team believes that it is necessary to prevent the Russians to be able to examine the submarine.

Meanwhile, at the height of the water surface the mothership Benthic Explorer ravaged by the hurricane. One of the cranes on board falls down. The SEAL team and the staff of the oil rig put themselves back on board the submarine for the faucet that presumably will fall on top of the submarine, but he falls and falls into a deep trough. The submarine is being carried away by the faucet in the trough. The ship is badly damaged and several compartments walk under water. Several employees are killed, but Bud and Lindsey managed to escape to the water. Then decides to enter the ship and the extraterrestrial to make contact with the people on board the submarine. The creature seems to be no harm in the sense to have, but Coffey, a member of the SEAL team, trust it and sends a nuclear rocket to the trough, where the creatures seem to live. In a fight between Lindsey and Bud against Coffey, Coffey comes to life after onderwaterpak are imploding. The rocket is then already gone, through a remote-controlled submarine, programmed by Coffey. The small submarine in which Bud and Lindsey now in is lek.

Bud keeps in touch with the crew by sending messages via a keyboard. He can not talk because he breathes through liquid. Bud stops the rocket on time, but his team is shocked when they hear that Bud has not enough oxygen to return to the main submarine. Bud sends a message to Lindsey in which he explains that he knew he could not turn back, but that he could not make it happen that the rocket will destroy the creatures. He sends a final message to Lindsey: "I love you, my wife".

Find the creatures at the bottom of the trough Bud. They bring him to a room with oxygen and air under normal pressure. The creatures appear to be very intelligent.

State of South Carolina. There was 26.5 million gallons of water to fill the 13-metre-deep tank, making it the largest underwater film set ever was.Due to the depth of the tank had to both staff and the actors undergo decompression . To ensure that overdag's "night shots" could be made, they have specially for the film more than 1 million black ping-pong balls made to exit the water at the surface. A sail on the tank would be too dangerous for any emergencies. For background scenes there was also filmed in the largest underwater lake in the world, located in a mine at Bonne Terre, Missouri.

 * Kidd Brewer Jr., one of the actors in the film and a friend of James Cameron, died in the premiere year of the movie after a diving accident.
 * The story was constructed in such a way that the computer-generated "water tentacle", an underwater creature, could be omitted when the end result Cameron would not give birth.
 * In the scene in which Ed Harris breathes through liquid kept Harris in reality his breath. His onderwaterpak was filled with pink colored water.
 * The scene in which a rat is held underwater and oxygen within seems to get through a special liquid is cut from the film in England, because it was thought that this would be painful for the rat. The rats died not in the scenes and one of the rats became a pet of James Cameron.
 * The tidal waves at the end of the film were produced only in 1992, after the movie premiered more than polite. The computer software was used which was also used for Terminator 2: Judgment Day. When the tidal waves were produced by ILM special effects company showed that the original sound effects were thrown away, and also the original composer, Alan Silvestri, was not available for the film. Bob Garrett was commissioned to edit the sound for the film partly again. The new version of the film was in the form of a "special edition" re-released in February 1993 and was a huge sales success.
