The premise

Jackson Slate, famous treasure hunter, is out to find the legendary Lost Gold Of Cortez in the open waters off a secluded island in the Caribbean Sea. Using dynamite to blast his way through centuries of silt, new chasms are created reaching miles below the ancient ocean floor. From here, an ancient evil is released, that quickly, savagely, and without warning, destroys Jackson s boat and kills his crew. The sole survivor of the carnage, Jackson teams up with marine biologist, Sarah, to venture back to the site and investigate the horrific events. They extract an egg from the darkest depths of the ocean and take it back to the lab to investigate. But when it hatches, they realise they have awaken a deadly prehistoric monster, the P-Rex, which will stop at nothing until the entire island is destroyed...

Horror Vault's take

When a reckless treasure hunt in the Caribbean disturbs the ocean floor with explosive force, something enormous and ancient is dragged back into the modern world. A lone survivor joins forces with a marine biologist to piece together what lurks beneath the waves — but getting answers may cost them everything. As the creature's rampage escalates toward a remote island paradise, locals and outsiders alike find themselves in its deadly path. Equal parts creature feature and survival thriller, Poseidon Rex delivers prehistoric mayhem on the high seas.
