It Came from Below

This honestly had the chance to be a good movie. But it fell flat. The worst part was the music. No matter what I did I could not hear the majority of the dialogue because of the music. It was frustrating and because of this I had a hard time actually figuring out what was going on. I actually created an account because I wanted to review this movie it was so poorly edited. Seriously people, it is called background music for a reason.

Aside from the storyline and characters being being absolutely awful, even for a low-budget production, this film is unwatchable without having subtitles turned on. Whoever was in charge of audio levels severely FAILED at their job.

"Not very thrilling for a thriller" is what this film was described as in the review of one viewer by the name of, ruble-huff the 24th/August/2021.

I would advise you to read it, as the person perfectly describes the sheer, and utter, drivel of this totally lackluster thriller-less rubbish!

Caving/potholing are at the top of the most dangerous hobbies a person could have. Yet the four characters (who already know of the existence of a creature in the cave system by the way; the father of one of them told his daughter and son but, just like most youth of these times they are complete stupid numb-nuts!) go looking for it with no safety equipment, no food & water supplies, no ropes and most importantly, no weapons to protect themselves should they just happen to run into said creature.

The director, one Dan Allen, made a clueless drunken stagger at creating a psychological horror thriller that just failed. The creature is the best thing about the film, as it looks very convincing, but there is no background proof, of anything, that pertains to it coming from another planetary distant world. So I give the creature 2 stars and the film gets a thumbs down.

This movie is missing a few key components for making a good movie. Good acting, plausible story, special effects, etc. This movie lacks every single thing required. The acting, especially when being attacked, is awful, absolutely awful. The story is just plain dumb. I've seen other cave movies and there's enough ambient lights to know what's going on but this is total darkness aside from seeing up their nose. I'm sure that saved a lot on production cost filming in total darkness but it made for one very crappy movie. Definitely skip this one.

Like a JV version of the Descent. Without the skilled actors, credible story, effects and pretty much everything else.
