When she meets up with Dr. Paul Dean, she learns the horrible secret behind the government's role in the creature's development and that Dr. Dean has an identical parasite feeding inside him. Determined to destroy the parasites, Dr. Dean and Patricia try to control the one inside him while they destroy the other before it gets too big and powerful to be stopped. Originally shown in 3-D, PARASITE is campy fun that features some genuine shocks as well as great effects by Stan Winston, who went on to do JURASSIC PARK. [More]
