On a sweltering summer day in the quiet town of Blackwater, Louisiana, a meteor blazes through the sky and smashes into the roof of the local Natural History Museum. This meteor is, in fact, a spacecraft housing an extraterrestrial being that brings the museum’s partially frozen Woolly Mammoth to life, setting off a destructive spree. Local law enforcement and government agents team up with Frank Abernathy, the Museum Curator, and his father Simon, a fan of B-movies, to stop the colossal mammoth in this alien invasion film.
