Something Beneath (2007)

An environmentalist consultant warns a developer not to build his conference center due to environmental issues with the land. As with all greedy big business land developers, the warning is ignored and the scientist is fired. Guess they should have just given him a prewritten report rather than expecting him to advise them like he was hired to do.

When the conference center opens, Kevin Sorbo arrives and reveals that he's a priest. The good looking man is a priest? On no! However will the lady with a crush on him handle this?

Then in another shocker, toxic gooey sludge shows up in the plumbing and sewers. Anyone who touches the sludge starts hallucinating their worst fear and quickly dies.

Of course a few deaths aren't going to stop the grand opening. The developer tells the staff to keep the deaths under wraps since nothing will hurt business like visitors deaths on the first day.

Sorbo and his lady interest investigate the sludge and find it is a new life form that feels attacked by humans. So it kills people before they can harm it.

Of special interest is the blogger who shows up to cover the conference, touches the sludge, and hallucinates his worst fear - wolves. After his body is found, they keep referring to as him as "poor kid," which seemed strange since I thought he was in his fifties.
