Your opinion


Well of course, isn't that what this board is for? To share opinions? The first half was somewhat intriguing but, in my opinion, the ending was terrible and made no sense and gave no real purpose/motive for the plot or explanation for the supernatural powers of the sea creatures or whatever that was supposed to be.

I'm glad you enjoyed it.

ETA: I also typically always dislike movies that begin with a supernatural evil premise only to get to the end to find out it's just some big weird monster(s).

Wasn’t very good. An ok premise but it gets boring very quickly.

I was enjoying the premise, if not the acting, right up until they went Home Alone on the octopus man.

Greta Lee is hawt, though.

Watched this last night. One of the worst resolutions and endings I've seen in a while. They even set up for a sequel. You literally watch the credits and have very little information on what actually was going on the whole movie and left a ton of stuff unanswered. It was like a season 1 cliffhanger.

Maybe with the slight exception in that it was eaten.

Did anyone get the gist of why the chimney was left "unblocked"?


So the water monsters could flood the place when they wanted.


Besides a lot of dumb things, there is no way they could have lived 5 years like that. Maybe a year at the most. Growing a garden indoors and it being enough to feed a family of 4, 5 years? naw. The trapping animals thing was brilliant, I wouldn't have been able to figure that out.

I turned this off after about 20 minutes. Terribly boring, awfully cut, and horrendous acting by the parents.

I agree. The first 20 minutes I was wondering why Pablo Escobar talked all funny.

I was driving back from Cincinnati on Saturday when Mrs. Vox called me to ask if I was ever going to watch this movie. When I said that it was unlikely, she said that she needed to be able to vent about whatever the frick she just watched and proceeded to go into the whole thing.

Exactly. With the small amount of food they had they all would have looked like Ausxhwitz survivors. But no, the kids grew up healthy and plump. And those animal traps? GTFO....
