Summary
Alone in an isolated research station in Antarctica, a group of scientists and adventurers must battle an alien life with the ability to change its physical characteristics to exactly mimic, in appearance, intelligence, and temperment, any living being. As more evidence mounts, the trapped men become paranoid of each other. To amke matters worse, one scientists figures out that there is a good mathmatical probability that the creature could take over the population of earth in a matter of weeks if it isn’t stopped by them.
