Well, given the synopsis for this movie, you just know that it is going to be one of those awful movies that you wonder how got around to seeing the light of day. And sure enough, "Bermuda Tentacles" was exactly that.

The story is about Air Force One going down in the Bermuda Triangle, and as the military and navy is in the vicinity to search for the president of the United States of America, strange, fluorescent tentacles emerge from the deep and start attacking the boats. It is up to a small group of soldiers to set out in an experimental prototype submarine to venture into the deep to retrieve the president in the escape pod.

This is low budget Sci-Fi in every aspect of the words, and this is far from SyFy's brightest moment. While they have other very questionable movies to their name, then "Bermuda Tentacles" is in the top 3.

The effects were adequate, though often at the lower scale of being proper. Don't except anything major here or anything to blow you out of your seat.

What the movie did have working for it was some adequate acting and list of talents on the cast list. It is always nice to see John Savage in a movie, although he had very little to work with in this movie. People were doing good enough jobs with their given roles and characters, despite having a poor script to work with.

If you enjoy Sci-Fi movies, then I would suggest that you watch something else, because "Bermuda Tentacles" doesn't really deliver on any accounts. This is a poor addition to the vault of Sci-Fi movies, and it raises more questions to the storyline than it gives answers.

Linda! No! No! Please, no! Think of all those great TV series you were in. All those great movies you were in. Do you really want people to remember you in this piece of total garbage? Do you really need the money that much? I'm now going to have to try really really hard to delete what I just saw and pretend that it never happened. I didn't see you in this nonsense. I didn't see you looking about 84 years old. You are still in your 20's. Still beautiful. You still touch my heart with your poignant acting.

You were never in this SyFy rubbish. Never. I don't remember it. It is gone, deleted. I will never remember it.

Hi Guys,

Every time I see one of these "movies", I say, they can't get any worse. Then I watch the next one and it's worse.

This one really sucked. The marines or what ever they were didn't even shave and the women had about a pound of makeup slapped on them. I ,also, like that cannons and planes don't hurt them, so, let's shoot at them with 9MM pistols.

That being said, next week is "Big Ass Spider" and I will be watching hoping for the one good one.

What are the chances that this won't be the one ?

Okay, Bermuda Tentacles may not be the worst SyFy has done or quite down there, but it is incredibly bad and worse than any of their offerings from last year. It looks cheap, well the photography is okay if rather drab but the editing is choppy and the whole movie just looks both drab and garish. The special effects are truly laughable, and that's at best as well. The monster looks so fake, one of the worst-looking I've seen in a while and poses no real threat or even a personality to speak of. The sound is murky and the music is sluggish and over-bearing, reminiscent of a poorly-scored overblown CGI extravaganza but worse. The story plods like thick, sticky mud and any tension, fun, excitement or horror is practically non-existent here. Mainly because it looks like none of the actors give a damn about what's happening to them and that everything is so ridiculous and lacking in any real sense. The script is a real disaster here, no wonder the dialogue delivery was so awkward often, it's cheesy and incoherent and much of it, especially the more wordy exposition dialogue, sounds like utter gibberish. The characters range from underwritten to annoying, with any conflict between them not believable in any way and coming across as forced instead, while the acting is atrocious. That is particularly true of Mya, whose performance is pretty embarrassing, in fact the younger members of the cast make it all too clear how inexperienced they are. Linda Hamilton looks worse for wear here and also gives a surprisingly lazy performance. The best performance is by John Savage, the only halfway decent one and quite possibly the best thing about Bermuda Tentacles, that he has very little to work with and what he has is poor, I wouldn't go as far to say that he is enough to save the movie. Overall, Bermuda Tentacles is not quite among SyFy's worst but even for a company notorious for mostly bottom-of-the-barrel to mediocre(with a handful of tolerable ones) this was just horrid. 1/10 Bethany Cox

Aliens hiding under the sea within the Bermuda triangle abduct the president of the United States (John Savage). A fleet under the command of Admiral Hansen (Linda Hamilton of 'Terminator' fame) enters the area to save the president and kick some tentacle-thing butt! Funny coincidence that they already have a scientist on board, namely Dr Zimmer (Jamie Kennedy), who can tell them all about alien organisms. Chief Oliver (Trevor Donovan) disobeys the admiral's orders and goes on the rescue mission with a prototype submarine. In an underwater cave, he discovers more about the enemy. Ancient shipwrecks reveal they have been here for a century or more, time to put an end to that...

"Bermuda Tentacles" is a hilarious piece of trash, certainly a lot funnier than its makers intended it to be! I've been disappointed with a couple of other Asylum productions recently, but this one delivers.

only really need to say..

absolute garbage of the highest order and like the Ebola virus it should be avoided at all costs even for free or bored to death do not attempt to watch this drivel its truly shocking..

Linda Hamiltons career has spun into the bargain bin anyway and this will only falter it further..and i think this goes up there with the other films like Sharknado 2 and Prehistoric Rex which are both equally bum films

Bermuda Testicles this is indeed .. a far better and fitting name for it

utter pap

I never thought I'd ever say this, but, Bermuda Tentacles is pretty good. The CGI as is usual for Asylum features is vastly underwhelming, however the script, involving a very unusual take on the Bermuda Triangle, has a certain style that allows the cast something to work with. Linda Hamilton appears to be doing an impersonation of Kate Mulgrew's Captain Janeway at times, but that's not necessarily a bad thing. Other actors more than keep their dignity with controlled performances for the most part. Director Lyon really did a good job with this. The final scenes, with it's horrible decision to be made actually got an emotional reaction from me, something no feature from this company has ever managed to do. Like I said the special effects are below par, with a little too much stock footage, however,one has to wonder what this might have looked like with quadruple the budget. Congratulations Asylum, this time you did good.

Straight off the bat I must confess to only watching the first 52 minutes of this movie before I had to relieve the agony by sticking red-hot needles in my eyes. This movie is both puzzling and depressing in equal measure. Why do Messrs. Rimawi and Latt appear in the opening credits, yet there is no mention of The Asylum? Why does Linda Hamilton appear? (I'm assuming that post-divorce from James Cameron she doesn't need the money). Why has she lost all acting ability? She's the same age as me, so why does she now look about 103? (Sorry Linda, but it's the truth). Why didn't the producers spend the money on a well-scripted and acted story rather than blow it on 3rd rate CGI and dodgy sets? I don't know the answer to any of these, but I do know that I found the experience of watching this movie to be quite saddening. Apart from the disappointment of seeing one of your cinema heroines being reduced to this dross, the very fact that films as bad as this continue to see the light of day engenders a sense of ennui akin to that felt when contemplating the end of mankind.

This movie's plot and the quality (or otherwise) of the lighting, music etc. are irrelevant in this case. The overall sense of crapness drowns out any potentially less than awful aspect of the film. Go and watch some paint dry, or some grass grow, or just gouge your eyes out - any of these are preferable to watching Bermuda Tentacles.

Most worst movie i hve ever seen. even graphic is too bad

Another problem Is that when the seals get into the Prometheus they all take specific positions to operate the submarine only problem is the Prometheus is brand new they haven't trained on it and seals are not trained to operate that kind of vessel it's not their job

You'd think that after all the years the Sc-Fi Channel and Asylum have been churning out absolute dross, one day they'd actually get a half decent movie out (law of averages). All it would take is the budget of say, four of their dumb movies, a decent script and FX team, and a few well known faces to star on screen. and they might produce something worth watching. Instead they keep trying to feed us eyeball melting,coma inducing trash like this movie. And believe me.......this is a real stinker!! Lynda Hamilton and John Savage must have been hard up to appear in this one. What WERE they thinking? The extremely thin plot involves the Air Force One being downed in a thunder storm over the Bermuda Triangle. The President escapes in his escape pod only to become stranded at the bottom of the ocean. The ensuing rescue effort wakens an alien see monster who's not very happy and procedes to cause havok among the U.S Naval rescue fleet. Cue special effects of the worst kind and even worse acting and music. It's all very gung-ho and cheesy, and very much NOT in a good way. It doesn't even fall into the catagory of "I't so bad it's funny. If you've watched one Asylum movie then you 'll pretty much know what kind of viewing experience you're going to get, so don't say you haven't been warned. If on the other hand you haven't, trust me. You'll be asking yourself why for the love of all that's holy did you bother.

First , there is NO Bermuda Triangle . It was invented by Edward Van Winkle Jones (yes honestly !) in 1950. It was almost called the "Bermuda Square" but Cuba became a bad boy , and the rest is history !

The tragedy is that some people still believe in such a conspiratorial idea , and Hollywood obliges by building it up into a real and natural "phenomenon " , just like the "Loch Ness Monster" ... it can help with the Florida tourist trade .

As to this travesty of a film , it has more holes than Swiss cheese ! Imagine if the crash was on an island ... the Pres would have been pulp after his "escape" craft hit solid ground . And how quickly did the Navy manage to sail to the site , firing pistols at an airborne monster !!

Poor Linda Hamilton , and just like other aging actors (Willes , Segal etc) who have nothing better to do and need the money , she is the admiral in charge of not only saving the Pres but also the whole world from these "undersea" nasties ... and all the while with a straight face !

I hope the 9 producers got back something for their money ! There is actually a "behind the scenes producer" too (whatever that is ) called Cody Peck ... don't ask !

Anything is better to do than wasting your time watching this piece of bull ...

You will be surely disappointed if you go in expecting a serious monster movie. It was definitely intended to be one, but the awful VFX work and the over the top acting make it a hilariocity.

Pretty much every actor in the movie was terrible, yes, even experienced actors like Linda Hamilton. And towards the end if seemed like they were going for some kind of a love interest between the Lieutenant and the guy rescuing the president which fell flat.

Overall a pretty terrible movie that is so bad it's unintentionally good.

To start with this is a pure torture of one and half hour with pathetic acting, trashy SyFy, baseless story and patchy direction. Can't understand why Linda Hamilton and John Savage did such movie. The acting is pale rather laughable. The alien monster doesn't convince, nor the background music. A pathetic and purely avoidable movie.

I enjoyed the movie. Cheesy, ridiculous, horrible effects. Everything you love about a syfy movie.

It's a decent sci-fi movie. The acting's decent, the special effects are not bad - they are believable enough. The concept's interesting and different. Don't quite know why this is getting so much hate - I've seen so much worse sci-fi lol I'm kind of a fan of bad sci-fi and disaster movies, and this one is a pleasant surprise. Only one little complaint - if anyone, even the president, pointed his finger at me like that, I'd be really pissed, and probably decide he's a jackass ;> All-in-all, a fine Sunday afternoon, folding the laundry while it's raining out kind of time-waster.

One of the worst Movie i have ever watched. Funny VFX, Graphics, Actings etc.

A cheesy, Bermuda-set science fiction film from The Asylum, and shown by the SyFy Channel - an unholy combination of production forces. This one's clearly inspired by/ripping off BATTLESHIP, and like BATTLESHIP, it's a CGI-fuelled mess of a film, about the crew of a warship who are attempting to extract the President from his watery grave after Air Force One crashes into the Bermuda Triangle.

The rubbish writing is the worst thing about this non-starter of a film, that and the repetitive structure of the narrative. It's an entirely clichéd piece full of lame CGI effects of alien tentacles waving about and a few silly scenes of characters exploring an alien ship which seem to be indebted to PROMETHEUS. It's noisy, vapid, and dull. The familiar faces they've roped along for this one include THE TERMINATOR's Linda Hamilton (considerably aged), SCREAM's Jamie Kennedy (unrecognisably bearded), and ALIENS's Ricco Ross (barely in it). Unsurprisingly, it's as boring to watch as your usual Asylum effort.
