The 1985 science-fiction movie, The Titan Find, takes place in the year 2020 when a team of scientists discovers the existence of a previously unknown planet on the edge of our solar system. The team of astronauts, led by Captain John Baines, is sent to explore the planet and gather information about its terrain, atmosphere, and any potential life forms. We follow the astronauts' journey as they travel for three years to reach the planet, with occasional messages from their families back on Earth.

As they land on the planet, they begin to notice that the environment is not exactly as they expected. The atmosphere is breathable, the temperature is comfortable, and even plant life exists. However, they quickly realize that something is not quite right as they start to experience strange dreams and visions, and their physical and mental states are deteriorating.

The team discovers that the planet has a high concentration of methane and that its gravity is much higher than Earth's. They also find a mysterious structure that they believe to be an ancient temple of alien origin. As they explore the temple, they discover a strange substance that has the power to alter their DNA. Dr. Amanda Renshaw, the team's biologist, becomes particularly invested in this substance and decides to experiment with it on herself.

As the team struggle to come to with the changes happening to their bodies, they begin to realize that they may have made a monumental mistake in coming to this planet. The changes to their DNA are causing them to mutate into new creatures, and they begin to question whether they will ever be able to return to Earth.

The Titan Find is a classic sci-fi movie that explores the dangers of space travel and the consequences of playing with forces beyond our control. The movie is driven by the tensions and struggles the astronauts face, both physically and emotionally, as they come to with their new reality. The acting is strong, particularly from Stan Ivar as Captain Baines and Wendy Schaal as Dr. Renshaw.

The special effects are impressive for their time, and the cinematography does an excellent job of portraying the stark beauty of the planet. Despite its age, The Titan Find feels like a timeless classic and is likely to appeal to fans of the sci-fi genre who enjoy a good dystopian story.

Overall, The Titan Find is a well-crafted, thought-provoking movie that raises interesting questions about the ethics of scientific exploration and the risks associated with playing with untested technologies. It is a must-see for fans of classic sci-fi films and anyone who enjoys an engaging story about human adaptation and evolution in the face of otherworldly challenges. Disappointingly, however, the movie does not always carry its momentum in a consistent manner, souring some of the intense moments. Nonetheless, The Titan Find remains a noteworthy film due to its exhortation of deep-thinking that manages to feel never-ending in its relevance.
