Deep Evil (2004)

Wow! What a bizarre film! Unfortunately the few funny moments there were were quite overshadowed by it's completely weird and random vibe throughout.

This is a small, humorous movie in some ways, but it has a huge heart. What a nice experience.

Strong acting helps the film overcome an uncertain premise and create characters that hold our attention absolutely.

The film's masterful storytelling did its job. The message was clear. No need to overdo.

I rented this once and thought it stunk. What possessed me to re-watch this, I don't know. Oh, wait, yes, I do know: I felt like re-watching some recent rubbish sci-fi/horror flicks. Amazingly so, "Deep Evil" isn't actually all that bad as I remembered it to be. I blame that on the fact that by now I have watched a considerable amount of infinitely worse flicks already. So, in some underground facility the government has been experimenting with an alien substance. Those folks just never learn. Of course the alien organism evolves and grows out of control. A team of highly trained military folks are sent in to secure things (as in: blow the whole thing to kingdom come). Amongst them, that 'what the hell happened to my career'-guy Lorenzo Lamas. Our team gets to fight against (in following order): alien water (yes, you read that right), hundreds of silver alien spiders and eventually rubber-suited humanoid alien creatures. Far from anything special.

This movie surprised me. I thought I was in for some "Pure Quality" But this was better than I expected.Even though this movie had nothing original in it, deep evil managed to take all those stolen concepts and put them together really well. I noticed a few scenes straight from The Rock and Phantoms. But Liquid alien, underground laboratory, biological weapon gone wrong, commando team sent to fix the problem ...... come on. Deep Evil makes it work!!!!!!!!The only reason I can see for it getting such a low score on IMDb is the CGI must have been done by David Hasselhoff's first grade fan club. It was pretty bad. But probably because I'm used to that sort of trash, I wasn't phased. Even the bad CG helicopters was repelled off my mental block of badness.If you have a high tolerance for low budget computer graphics, I'd recommend this movie to you.

I read the reviews here before watching this movie, so I was prepared for a crapper bomb, its not.There is a Si-Fi blight right now so I am forced to take what I can get.None of the actors are very good, but no one sucked either. The special affects ranged from poor,buckets of watered down slim dropping onto the ground, to pretty neat, the aliens them self.Everything about this movie screams cable TV and that is what it was...go in with the attitude that this is about the quality of say "Chupacabra: Dark Seas " and you may enjoy it too.Minor Spoiler...One scene I did like was when Lamas got his spine torn out.The basic story can be read by the reviews above or below mine.No point in rehashing it for you again.

This is called a Canadian movie but it is an American Pay TV movie set in Alaska but filmed in Canada to save money. It is basically a story of germ warfare; with a twist. American scientists working on a project in futuristic Alaskan Laboratory find a new terror weapon. Any more explanation would be a spoiler. Rather simplistic movie worth watching after midnight if there is nothing else to watch. Most simple storyline would be ..Alien meets Alaska. 3/10 is about what this film deserves and i would like to say that i am in reality -being generous. The type of film where you watch and watch only to see if you were correct in your guesses as to what the plot will bring about. Simple and when it ends it ends--finally. the end
