Cinephilia & Beyond tweeted out the following gallery of images taking a look at the set, an abandoned nuclear power plant in South Carolina, of James Cameron‘s 1989 feature The Abyss 20 years after the film’s release. So, yes, these images are five years old, but I had never seen them before and found them fascinating.
I have still yet to see Cameron’s director’s cut of The Abyss, though I have meant to for several years now. I can hardly even remember the narrative of the movie it’s been so long since I’ve seen it. Obviously, the memories that do remain, however, are the film’s visuals and the breathing fluid. Oh, that breathing fluid.
The Abyss turns 25 this coming August so expect to see a lot of features around that time.
