The Deep Below

The Deep Below is a feature film released by Zepper Pictures, directly to DVD in March 2007, written by Rod Slane and Ami Neder, starring Jason Dohring, Marina Sirtis, Michael Dorn and directed by Rod Slane. The film was produced by Extended Family Entertainment, which is a production company that specializes in films that are appropriate viewing for the entire family.

The movie is loosely based on a town in Oklahoma that had to be moved as a result of the construction of a dam creating Lake Keystone. There is a local legend about a train carrying gold in the 1800s which overturned and the gold rolled off the mountain pass into the value, that is now at the bottom of the lake. The writers updated the story to be about young Will Taylor (Dohring) who witnessed the murder of his father and aunt, as they waited in the old bank building for the funds to be moved to the new bank building. The guards supposed to transport the funds, rob the bank and murder its owner. Will grows up and now works on the Lake that hides the secrets of his past.

As Will learns about his history and the submerged treasure, the villain, Carl Bennett (Dorn) returns from prison to collect the money he left at the bottom of the lake.
