Relic, The

The Relic (1997)
Dir: Peter Hyams

A cop investigating a series of grisly murders discovers a monster is loose in Chicago's Natural History Museum.
Cheesy but entertaining monster movie with a good setting. There's not much of a plot and the acting is average, though the leads are watchable enough. It's well shot despite the occasional shoddy effect, and the director does a good job of building the tension.
