    Surprisingly suspenseful

    Besides the absolute lack of real special effects and relying entirely on what you don't see, this movie relies solely on the performances of the players. Though not star quality, Terrarium does provide enough suspense to carry along and keep the watcher involved.

    wow ! Very Speechless! This movie makes a dent!

    I was amazed after seeing this film. When my boss even said this film was awful and he likes all the cheesy sci-Fri movies such as the cave I had to believe it with my own eyes. I work at an independent video store so we get quite a few b movies. I was in for a disturbing treat. I have now seen the worst sci-Fri movie in years.

    The movie had to been made with maybe 1,000 dollars. The acting had to be voluntary and the movie had to of been shot with a sony hi8. The audio was very muffled and unclear.

    The movie took place in who knows where. The directer says its a spaceship. The first 35 minutes took place in what it looked like bunkbeds painted white. The "beast" was just a guy with a terrible hairy suit.

    With all this saying I would recommend this movie. A good movie to show in class on how to make a bad film. In fact the only reason I'm not giving it a 1 is two reasons. 1) Its so bad that some parts are funny such as when you hear crunching noises. A girl asked "What is going on" The man replies "She is being devoured!" It was very funny to me. You have the perfect examples of how bad movies can get (especially the audio). 2) The way the movie was distributed. I don't know how I saw the movie for sale at Best Buy but it is amazing. They had about four laying on the table ready to be bought. I bet they sent them all back after a week! They also distributed the movie the same week that War of the Worlds came out. This will get people confused on buying the wrong movie. Very smart.

    I give the directing a 1, acting a 1, editing a 1, and storyline a 1. It really was that bad.

    "Because stealth is good..."

    An surprisingly good effort given budget and limited locations (all of this is detailed in the special features). Director Mike Conway makes clever use of what little he had to work with by creating psychological suspense in the first act. (showing as little of the creature as possible was definitely a good move here). The rest of the film takes on more of a low budget feel after the initial threat is dispelled, but is redeemed by the somewhat campy acting and unintentionally funny delivery of the characters (especially the captain). All in all, a good concept fairly well executed. See it with someone who can appreciate a low budget production and prepare to be entertained...

    Was this shot in the 50's?

    I felt this was worse then Plan 9 from Outer Space. Cheesy costumes, poor script, low budget Special effects and just poor acting. I felt like I was watching one of those old drive in B movies but worse. If you're looking for something to just kill a hour and a half or so this is it. You never really get a good look at the cheap gorilla suit alien eating the crew. The acting is so lame I could have done just as bad.The aliens that control the " Creature " look like monkey masks, the weapons the aliens use look a lot like cheap fireworks and cheap one at that.What is really bad is that I had problems just finding this movie on IMDb. I had to search by one of the actresses names to look it up, Unless you like campy movies, steer clear of this one.

    fun cheesy movie

    you would swear this movie was made in the late 70s for a million dollar budget. Instead it was made a couple years ago for 25k in some dudes back yard. Kudos to him. I LOVED IT

    The captain is way more hilarious than captain t Kirk the aliens look like they were straight from the trekkies 60 universe

    the ship was so flimsy though, you wonder how it survived the impact, and it didn't even look at that beat up. But these are technical details.

    I really wonder what kind of colony they would be able to make with only a couple of chicks, but again... details

    whats fun is the fighting with the giant gorilla and the 80s banter between the cosmonauts. go buy it today!
