TheLittleSongbird The idea was preposterous in the first place, but I saw it anyway out of interest to see how bad it would be and whether it would be something to revel in the awfulness of it all. No such luck! Deep Shock doesn't even have the so-bad-it's-good factor, just so-bad-it's-bad. Bad doesn't even describe what I consider one of the worst movies I've seen in a long time. Visually, Deep Shock looks terrible, with choppy editing and too-dark lighting. But they are nothing compared to the effects of the eels, their giant sock-puppet-like appearances would be more at home in a cartoon or something, and because of the way they look they exude no menace or even quirky fun. The music score manages to be overbearing too, with sluggish tempos, obtrusive and obvious orchestration and melodically nothing standing out at all. The writing is just as awful, whether in tense, humorous or romantic moments it all feels very forced and stilted. And it seems as though the actors know that, as nobody is good, often reading of playing themselves. David Keith is playing the same role here than he has been in a lot of his movies of late, and it's getting old. The story has no life to it whatsoever and feels predictable and contrived all the time, while the characters are dull as dishwater and clichéd. In conclusion, a soggy mess. 1/10 Bethany Cox
karl_consiglio Actually had to stop it. Don't get me wrong, love bad monster movies. But this one was way too boring, regardless of the suspenseful music that never leads you anywhere. The actress had too many teeth and that moment when she makes contact with one of the beasts, was way too obvious a cliché. This film totally betrays the cover on the DVD which looks pretty interesting. From the cover one expects a giant monster, but you get these cute not as gigantic as expected electric eels. Moved on to watch another film called The Killer Rats but that's another review. Deep Shock was really crap, a big shame considering the fact that it looks pretty high budget.
succotash Deep SH.. is more like it! The eels are just cartooned in over the film. Think "The Incredible Mr. Limpet" meets "Leviathan". Very tacky. No character or relationship development. So called "romantic" scenes very corny and predictable. An interesting idea, but a poorly written script and LOUSY special effects make this a definite must-miss!
timpe_dumle It's not the best movie ever made, but it is far from bad. The effect are a bit outdated for a movie made in 2002, but it is still exciting and a nice little piece to watch on a weekday when you don't have any other films to watch.If you don't mind some lame computer animated scenes, it's actully quite exciting.
