First you take a 6 member female army team. Figure out a reason they should only be wearing tight t-shirts. Then use a Star Trek type transporter and have it malfunction and leave them 600 km. inside the earth. Where there happens to be bright sunlight and clouds, but don't even try to explain why. Add a T-Rex and the inevitible giant spiders.
Then add a rescue attempt using a machine eerily similiar to the one from the Core..OK, not eerily similiar, an out and out ripoff.
Of course this time the inventor of the drilling machine is not a mad scientist who happens to have a bad history with one of the rescue team. This time make it completely different and have the mad scientist who has a history with the other member of the team be the divorced wife of the other guy on the rescue team.
Just to make sure the movie is completely different from any other sci-fi channel movie make one of the female soldiers happen to also be an amatuer scientist who can figure out how deep they are by looking at the types of rocks. And just so we have no idea who the "smart" one is, make her the one with the glasses. Extra nerdy glasses.
And lets not forget the spider eggs hatching in one of the soldiers. That would be a unique idea we haven't seen since, well, when did Alien come out?
Lastly and leastly, don't forget the obligatory fade away shot of the little baby spider who no one realizes managed to hitch a ride on one of the survivors. The tried and true method of setting up a sequel should the movie be a hit.
Of course, the idea of the movie being a hit would be real science fiction for the sci-fi channel.
