CommentsXp Best movie ever!

Merolliv I really wanted to like this movie. I feel terribly cynical trashing it, and that's why I'm giving it a middling 5. Actually, I'm giving it a 5 because there were some superb performances.

Leoni Haney Yes, absolutely, there is fun to be had, as well as many, many things to go boom, all amid an atmospheric urban jungle.

Freeman This film is so real. It treats its characters with so much care and sensitivity.

trav1085 Nothing really special, scientists on a secret oil rig find a creature in the centre of the earth. A family member of mine thought she saw this at first because the beginning wasn't anything different than so many other movies of this genre.Completely unoriginal tentacle monster creature, with crappy 3D effects on the tentacles.Some plot errors I noticed. Considering supposedly this creature can create hallucinations based on what you want to see, why was it that that girl and old guy (I forgot their names, don't care to remember) were together and he could see her hallucination? Then all of a sudden HE'S THE ONE WHO INFECTS HER? That was weird, considering it didn't go after him in the first place. What happened when that guy like pulled him out of the hallucination where that other guy with the disk was being attacked by the monster (not to mention his voice was funny even though he was not yet infected).As well, it was pretty funny when I'm sure it wasn't intended to be the main source of "humour" in this movie. The scene with the cowboy was funny in a "why is this here? it doesn't even belong". The striptease scene was pure fan service. (Not that that is a bad thing, but really, it was just to keep the audience interested in such a dull film).The whole concept of a creature that have you hallucinations into deceiving others of your team into being infested is a good concept, too bad it was executed so poorly.The ending was crap, in fact, it didn't give any originality and looked as if the director just pulled a Generic Action/Adventure Movie Ending from the Hat. So they throw a bunch of explosives down the elevator (why would there even be a self-destruct device in a government research lab?) and then that explosion blows up the rig and creature with it, while they jump 30 metres into the cold water and hope to be rescued? Not to mention that kind of jump could break some bones in the process. So then they're on a ship, getting back to land, and all of a sudden the women who lost her husband (terrible acting on behalf when he was killed, I should note) turns into that other guy and is actually the monster! At first I thought there could be a sequel (please don't) and then I realized this movie probably bombed in theatres and I doubt the studio wants to make a sequel (of what, the creature invading a large American city like Boston and having a team of people try and kill it (hmm, sound familiar to this movie?) and finally killing it. Leaving you to think "What was the point of watching both of these movies" when they could have killed movie, instead of having to make another one that just has a different setting but the ending is slightly different.Though I didn't see the first 20 minutes of this movie (It was aired on SPACE as 'Sea Ghost') I know I didn't miss anything that even a moron could get from watching the rest of the movie.Overall, I would still recommend this movie if you want to laugh at its errors and mistakes. I enjoy these types of mock B-movies, love how nothing fits and they just throw bits and pieces in and call it a movie.

John Atkins There are no words to describe the absolute misery that this movie will subject you to. Before its end, you too would gladly welcome death.The plot is awful. The CGI looks like it was hand-drawn onto the frames in production. The beginning credits attempt to be creative but butcher the intro. The same footage is shown over and over again, and most of it looks like it came from a 1980's 8bit video game.What's worse is the insulting attempt to cover up how awful this film is by including a few busty women. If that's all you want from a movie, then you'll find it here. Just don't expect to be entertained.If you're considering watching this movie, please don't throw away your life like that. Your time will be much better spent by watching that horrible Ewok movie that Lucas put out in '84. You deserve better than this.

pensivepoetbabblingbard One of the most horrible movies I've ever seen, if not the single most horrible. I have no idea why it was made.The plot, possibly the best part of the film, was awful. It switched on and off between two extremes: either it was bizarre and confusing, or it was dull and predictable.The acting would have made William Shatner sick to his stomach. The dialogue was written trite and cliché, and the delivery certainly didn't help. It was all strained, and in the rare case where there was emotion in a line, it was fake-sounding, and sometimes even the wrong emotion. It seemed like they were reading lines off the script for the first time. And the directing was just as bad. None of the motions that anybody made were natural-looking. Just a tip for the 'actors' in this film: if the camera is moving to try to (poorly) replicate the feel of a tossing boat, it's best not to just stand still, but to actually be tossed around. Especially if there's one actor who's moving around (albeit awkwardly) as if he's being tossed by the boat in the same room with you, at the same time that you're standing still! And the CGI was horrible. 'Nuff said there.

chriscarado This movie and its twin Deep Evil (2004) (TV) are painful to watch.I won't go into too much detail or reiterate what others have written. I did watch the whole thing but my excuse is that I was watching this in the background while on the computer.I kept on having deja vu while this played and I just could not put my finger on it - cheesy CGI, less than enthusiastic acting, and some other details.The overall idea, some of the effects, scenery, bio-hazard outfits, black eyeballs, and "lumpy" skin all looked too familiar - I looked up the cast and crew for this movie and Ah ha! I had seen Deep Evil (2004) recently. They share so much: plot, effects, and one of the writers. Who knows maybe some of the footage got mixed up on the cutting room floor? Don't bother with the movie. Watch paint dry. (Or watch both movies and compare, for fun!)
