I can enjoy even the worst of any "the Asylum" movies and they usually give me a chuckle or two. Thos one however have no quality whatsoever, you might possibly enjoy the nice weather and great waters of Belize, but story, acting or action is something you have to seek somewhere else. I can understand if the lead actor "phone it in" with a movie like this, but how do you manage to make everybody involved to not care at all ? If you are thinking of watching this, try and find some of the old monster movies that they made 60 years ago, equally crappy monster, but they had better story and better actors. You can watch both "It came from outer space" and "Invaders from mars" for free on Youtube... much better spent time.
Sure, the movie is terrible, but I'm even more confounded by the description:
"Forced to pay off his debt to the murderous Caribbean crime lord, Tariq, instead, the American scuba-diver and treasure hunter, Jackson Slate, wakes up from its deep hibernation a massive, T-Rex-like sauroid off the coast of Belize."
I dare anyone to diagram that sentence.

I found it a really fun dinosaur movie and I'm a fan of films like Sharknado 1, 2, 3, this film fits into the category of So bad it's good. I've seen worst dinosaur movies than this but I thought Poseidon Rex delivered plus I've seen worst CGI monsters in films but come on guys, its just a low budget dinosaur movie
You know that this movie is going to be one of those bad movies. And right you are, this is exactly that bad. But still, there is something morbidly fascinating about watching these horribly bad movies.
The storyline in "Poseidon Rex" is only outdone by the special effects (or what is supposed to pass as special effects) and the fact that this movie is one big cliché.
First of all, how would a prehistoric creature like this be able to sustain itself trapped in a crust of the of earth and trapped under the ocean for millions of years? It just doesn't make sense.
What also didn't make sense was the creature itself. It was just embarrassing to look at the CGI use in the movie. Most of the time it was quite bad, but every now and then, the creature effects were adequate to behold.
When they were diving, how could they be talking with those mouth pieces? It just didn't make sense.
The storyline had so many plot holes that it was hilarious to watch.
"Poseidon Rex" is a B-movie in every possible meaning of the word. Questionable effects, questionable story, questionable acting and questionable entertainment.

Maybe not use flash light flickers for gun shooting then get some cgi help. Also The Godzilla movies from 1950s is better than this trash.

- TriviaCorin Nemec was originally cast in the lead, but after a few days of filming was critically injured when a Belizean Coast Guard boat ran into a semi-submerged barge while transporting the crew to set. The entire right side of Nemec's body was shattered and he required multiple blood transfusions to save his life. Nemec subsequently underwent five surgeries.
- GoofsThe type of SCUBA regulators that the divers are using in the beginning of the film do not allow for radio communications, yet the divers are talking back and forth to each other and the dive boat.
