Deep Evil

Please Please Please don't watch this. i am 23 years old and consider myself a bit of a movie buff, i have seen countless movies (good and bad) but nothing has effected me this way, this movie should never escaped the studio. It is a pox on all that watch it. It is seriously appalling. Not just bad, as some movie are, it seems to attain a new standard of s**t that was previously un-attained. I refuse to even mention the details of the movie in this post as it weakens my moral fiber to even consider inflicting this on another human being, actually I'm not only sorry i watched this film but I'm sorry for posting this and piquing anyone else's curiosity enough to watch it. Please don't, seriously, YOU HAVE BEEN WARNED!!!!!!

Another good TV movie from the folks at Insight, The premise of the movie was quite well thought out although I think the story was strong enough to support a longer movie.

Could have spent a little more time with character development I think as there were some strong characters that could have had more introduction and development.

Although a little rushed i think it was an enjoyable movie.

Good work guys, wish I was with you on that one. Look forward to whats next. Matt

One interesting thing about this TVM is that it was filmed in 14 days . This is the only time the adjective " interesting " will be appearing in relation to DEEP EVIL . It also gives a hint as to what sort of quality you should expect from this type of film . Quickly written , quickly produced and quickly filmed the only thing that doesn't fly by quickly is the film itself . Two hours of your life you'll never get back ? It seems a lot longer than two hours sitting through this

As in these type of horror/sci-fi TVMs the intellectual and artistic parisonmy is matched by the budget . Once the military/scientific team are given their mission they spend a large proportion of the running time walking down a dark corridor waving torches . I don't know if it it was my imagination but this sequence seemed to last for 20 minutes and in order to impress the audience the characters spout such Oscar winning dialogue such as :

" Everyone thinks I'm a lesbo "

and

" No way was that officer's daughter jailbait . Shee was eighteen or nineteen at least "

If you're expecting a low/no budget remake of ALIENS you'll be disappointed because this is a very dialogue heavy type of story where not much happens What makes it more irritating is how exposition is given out to the plot . If you've read the plot summary on this page it tells you all you have to know as to how the story plays out

I personally thought it was an interesting movie. Of course it helps that I am a huge Scifi buff. There is always a problem when anyone who tries to compare a "B" movie, to one that I always have called an "A" movie. However I did take the time to read as many reviews as possible. The reviews I did read were very interesting to say the least. There was one scene that I agree had no place in the movie. I won't mention the scene, just in case you haven't seen the movie. Movies that I watch need to have the twists and turns to keep me interested enough to watch all the way through. But you know as well as I do, you can read all the reviews you can find. But at the end of all this research, you have to watch the movie and judge for yourself. TTFN

This is a typical movie about aliens loose in a confined environment. The presence of Lorenzo Lamas only proves that he is on a descending curve as casting is concerned and he has a really secondary role that involves no foot work, so he doesn't really belong in the movie.

There are a lot of loopholes in the plot, but how does care? This is a monster movie, just produce the monster, let him loose on people that we don't know and don't care about and maybe, just maybe, let a few of them alive to be cast in some other movies.

Someone mentioned the effects, they were not great. If you count greenish, reddish, yellowish liquids coming out of twitching people as special effects or you like quick morphs between computer generated aqua and people dressed in plastic, then this is the movie for you.

Actually, the only good scene of this movie is when the young daughter of the general i doing an erotic dance for Lamas at the beginning of the movie. From then on, the movie just keeps going downwards :)
