A hot summer afternoon in the sleepy town of Blackwater. Suddenly, a meteor whizzes across the sky and crashes through the roof of the Natural History Museum. What the unsuspecting residents of Louisiana don't realize: With it comes a shape-shifting creature from outer space, materializing in the first organic form it can find—a 40,000-year-old mammoth preserved in ice. The prehistoric beast awakens and threatens the town and its inhabitants. Special Agents Powers and Whitaker have little time to capture the prehistoric beast.
