The story first appeared on Fango, where creature effects creator Mark Viniello talked about the film, revealing cast details and such. Here's some of what he said: "John Rhys-Davies plays the captain of the ship, a gal named Chelan Simmons is Jenny, the captain’s daughter, Dylan Neal from BABYLON 5 is the hero, and Paula Shaw, who played Mrs. Voorhees in FREDDY VS. JASON, has a small role as a woman who gets killed by the Chupa. She’s a rich lady with an annoying little dog—and the dog gets killed too! There’s a very high body count."
