It looks like a low-budget Canadian horror film was made about Michael Morse

Michael "Beast" Morse was recently traded from Washington to Seattle. As a result, his Twitter identity was transformed from @DC_Beast38 to @SEA_Beast38. What's life as the Sea Beast like? Well, you see movies on Syfy in the middle of the day bearing your name, and you have to wonder about its merits:

Wonder how this show is ?!? twitter.com/SEA_Beast38/st…

This film was made in 2008 in Vancouver for a low-budget group of movies called the "Maneater Series." Originally airing on the then-Sci Fi Channel, Sea Beast is also known as Troglodyte and was directed by Paul Ziller. A quick perusal of Ziller's IMDB profile shows he's tackled a wide variety of topics in his directorial career, with credits such as Avalanche Alley, Android Apocalypse, and Yeti: Curse of the Snow Demon.

But let's try to answer Morse's question: How is this movie? A sampling of IMDB user review quotes should give us an idea:

"For those who are looking for Jamie Foxx doing huge stunts with mega explosion, This is not the movie for you... But for those who enjoy some low budget horror movies, this mix of predator/ jaws & aliens low budget flick is a fun one."

"So here's the thing: I understand this is sci-fi, but come on! How do monsters *from the deep* now suddenly have arms and legs and become amazingly adept at hunting on land. Not only that, but they can run, leap, and alter their extremely interesting camouflage to their new surroundings without any problem whatsoever."

"So you get some hilarious looking frog, lizard, fish, invisible thing that comes out of the sea to some small harbor town and kills people by paralyzing them with spit then eating them so one guy sees it and nobody believes him."

I'm pretty sure Morse's nature as a sea beast is not that of a frog, lizard, fish, invisible thing. Although Morse was in the midst of his first Seattle stint in 2008, I think we can be sure the film is not based on him. Still, if he wanted to appropriate the film's tagline of "the jaws of death just got hungrier" for his own ends, I don't think anyone could blame him.
