Australian actress Amber Clayton is set to star in writer/director Justin Dix’s sci-fi actioner Crawlspace. The film is produced by Wolf Creek director Greg McLean.

The synopsis reads:

The film follows a squad of elite soldiers sent to infiltrate and extract the lead science team from Pine Gap, Australia’s top secret underground military compound, after it comes under attack from unknown forces.

The mission is compromised when they encounter a young woman with no memory of who she is or how she came to be there. As they try to escape, the group quickly discovers all is not as it seems and the facility has become a testing ground for something far more sinister.

Clayton is perhaps best known in the States for her portrayal of Dr. Lisa Reed on the short-lived CBS medical drama “Three Rivers.”

Crawlspace is currently being shot at Docklands studios in Melbourne, Australia.
