one of the worst movies I have ever seen (spoilers)


I love B movies and I love Roger Corman and the newer Sci Fi channel stuff (sharktopus, dinoshark etc) but this movie was just plain bad. Not even "so bad it was good" just bad. I have seen just about all of the mystery science theater movies and I can't think of one that was worse than this. I'm not even sure where to begin. It's not even the ridiculous plot, that isn't any worse than a lot of movies I've seen. So many of the characters were so annoying that I was hoping they would die. All the yelling and screaming and whining and sobbing...the best part was when Taylor killed himself (or was killed by the terrorist I never could figure it out) Sadly, three of the most annoying survived. If ever there was a movie where I was rooting for the monster this was it. After the octopus I was rooting for the terrorist.

I won't say it was the worst movie ever because that is so cliche and I am sure there are some that might be worse but if you were to make come up with one now I don't think I could. I can say without hesitation that this is certainly in the top 5 (bottom 5?) of the worst movies I have ever seen.




If I have to read the book to help explain the movie that tells me the movie failed

So you actually liked Sharktopus and hated this?

Does not compute.

These SyFy creature features are a depressing lot. If you've seen one, you've seen them all. They never get better, they sometimes get worse.
