Uriah43 During the height of the Cuban Missile Crisis a Soviet submarine tries to slip past the American blockade to deliver a load of extremely deadly bio-chemicals. Unfortunately, the submarine is detected and while trying to escape it is destroyed by American torpedoes and the canisters sink to the bottom of the ocean. Thirty-eight years later the scene shifts to Bulgaria where a notorious terrorist by the name of "Casper" (Ravil Isyanov) manages to detonate a bomb inside the American embassy but is caught by a CIA analyst named "Roy Turner" (Jay Harrington). The decision is then made to bring the terrorist back to the United States via an American submarine commanded by "Captain Jack Shaw" (David Beecroft) who happens to hold a rather dubious reputation by those in senior management positions. However, as luck would have it the route the submarine takes just so happens to be inhabited by an octopus which has grown to gigantic proportions due to the chemical spill that occurred 38 years previously. Now rather than reveal any more of this film I will just say that I thought the first hour or so was actually quite good. Sad to say, the second half of the movie was a complete disaster due in large part to more-than-a-few preposterous scenes and some incredibly bad dialogue between the main actors. What made matters even worse is the fact that this movie honestly had some potential. In any case, I rate this film as below average.

atinder I guest most of you have never heard of this and keep it that way (lol). This has to be one of the most silly movies I have seen.The Plot of the movie During the Cuban Missle Crisis, a Russian sub is sunk while en route to Havana. As the sub goes down, the hold is breached and barrels full of some mysterious substance tumble out. Years later, an American nuclear submarine is transporting a captured terrorist to the States. The terrorist's henchmen, however, are planning to hijack the sub and rescue their leader. Meanwhile, a large, unidentified creature is approaching the sub at high speed.The whole movie is about unknown creature, I Wonder what that could be?Well the TITLE is a big give away,! and the worst of all beside the horrible acting is and we Only see Ginat Octopous once near the end, who ends up killing the terrorist the only part I really likedif you are thinking seeing this movie just fast forward to the best part of movie that is the last 10-15 minutes of movie.3/10 just for ending

MartianOctocretr5 Starts off with a Soviet sub being lost in 1962 while on its way to Cuba. Cut to four decades later.There's confusing hi-jinks, political intrigue, and traitors aboard an American sub that find the old sub. There's also a giant Octopus wandering around that makes periodic (and oddly timely) attacks, whenever it serves to thicken the plot. A spy is aboard the sub, and endeavors to uhhh, umm, do something bad I guess. The script doesn't make it clear, and the novice acting by the cast doesn't help, either.Then the sub meets up with a cruise ship (!) What? Oh, and more spies show up too. The script darts around so much you'll get dizzy trying to follow it.The final scene is about the only part that has anything of interest happen, as the Octopus makes his finest appearance. He's pretty nasty looking, as the director loves to take CGI shots into his mouth, as he attacks. Most of what you see is sloppy CGI, but at least you get to see something happen after waiting through the entire movie.A goofy, bargain basement movie, good for sporadic moments of chaos and comedy.

denysears Well, it is entertaining. It seems that every 15 seconds something happens that is so laughably idiotic, that everyone watching can get a poke in at some point. The film seems to be incompetent on every level. The acting seems terrible, but it is difficult to criticize, since turning out a decent performance with this script would be impossible. For example, the oceanographer, Dr. Lisa Finch, strips more often than she analyzes anything. Carolyn Lowery was obviously cast for her boobs more than for acting ability, but how could she possibly be convincing in the role of scientist and compulsive seductress at the same time? When she has to swim for her life, she takes off her skirt and leaves her shoes on. Some scientist. The writing goofs are hilarious though. Whenever the ride gets rough, ketchup bottles, stored on an open shelf crash to the floor (someone should tell submarine designers to stow those away). A giant octopus survives several mine blasts, and keeps coming, yet runs yelping when a tentacle is shot with a pistol. Later, it survives a nuclear fission blast, only to be smashed to atoms by a few sticks of dynamite at the end. A cruise ship is hunting an attack sub, which makes about as much sense as an elephant hunting a cheetah (what will it do if it catches it?). Our "hero," Roy Turner, is assigned to a sub, walks out on a pier at the edge of a lake, and the sub surfaces--in the lake! If you need a laugh, I would recommend this one any day. I give it a two out of ten, because we got a kick out of it. One warning though: this one is so bad it's good if watched with friends, but if viewed alone, might be so bad it's bad.
