The archeological team has just about given up on finding anything
significant in this remote corner of Alaska when Natalie Grainger (Lisa
Zane) stumbles upon what appears to be a burial mound. Inside, the team
discovers a number of human skeletons, including one dressed in a
strange metallic tunic and preserved in an amber cocoon. When Natalie's
husband, Curtis (David Cubitt), touches the cocoon, something amazing
happens. He begins to see through the eyes of the creature whose bones
were contained in amber, an alien with fearsome claws and teeth. This
psychic connection also provides a jolt of energy that liquefies the cocoon
and initiates the reconstitution of flesh on the alien's bones. As the
creature begins to come back to life, some of the team, including Emmet
Harley (Robert Picardo) want to call in a big corporate lab in order to cash
in on their discovery. When Natalie and Curtis refuse, afraid that their
discovery will be exploited by others, Emmet pulls a gun and things get
nasty. Natalie and Curtis are out-gunned and outnumbered. Or are they?
