THE RELIC (1997)

From the makers of Aliens". I remember that scrolling across the screen when I saw the trailer for this underrated creature flick. It centers around a scientist at a museum played by a feisty Penelope Anne Miller and a cop played by Tom Sizemore that find themselves under attack by a monster in a museum. The movie is overly entertaining with great creature design and nifty special effects for the time. Sadly, the film was panned by critics and floundered at the box office. But it's since found a deserved cult following. The film can feel generic at points but it's super fun and even a little scary.

Budget: $50M
Box Office: $48M

8.25/10
