I made it a sleep over event to watch this movie. I was afraid I wouldn’t be able to walk back alone to my office-tel in Korea…turns out such precautions werent necc. I slept almost immediately after we took the DVD out of the player. Nightmare free.

Just saw the host this evening. That girl had the biggest nose I’ve ever seen! You could shove a small man up there and still have room for a desk and chairs. My god! Oh, and the monster was cool. But they should have had more tentacle parts. YAH!!! Tentacles!!!

Welcome, Fiona. Yah, I had some of the same qualms as you, but, on the whole I believe people are interested in the film for the effects, so I tried to evaluate it with that in mind. Would I watch it again? I think someday I probably will, though I feel no rush to rewatch it at the moment.

I was quite disappointed with this film, which was a bit gutting as I was super excited to be able to catch a creature feature at the cinema. Initially seeing the creature come to shore was amazing, but with all the family focus if never seems to recapture that initial high for me.
