I saw this movie a while back on SciFy...spot on review. So terrible, you just have to watch it, though it did get so bad that it was just plain bad and nothing else.

The time I saw it, they were doing a marathon of that and another movie called Killer Pirranha or something...it puts MSvGO to shame. Check it out

And destroying an oil rig:

You know, if BP has come out and said that it was a Giant Octopus, then they wouldn't be getting anywhere near the criticism.

Also, it should be noted that there were about 15-20 minutes in the middle of the movie where I was kinda preoccupied (read: BJ), so I was only half paying attention. But I still got the jist of what was going on.

There is not much to compare. Shark Attack 3 has the line to end all lines and not much else. Mega Shark vs Giant Octopus has a lot of terrible special effects and not much else.

Neither one is really a top notch bad movie.

Gibson even recorded the soundtrack, featuring the romantic octopus ode: I Get lost In Your Eye.

Just watched it online.

This could have been such a better "bad" movie.

When the captain goes "Target Destroyed" and then says "NOPE, Target destroyed" again I lost it.

They needed more of that and less of the three main characters who weren't funny or entertaining.

did anyone notice the obama bumper sticker on the car when they were picking up the asian dude from the airport?

The asian dude and debbie gibson look like kari and grant from mythbusters.

im now proud to say i watched this movie. just telling people i have watched a movie titled "mega shark vs giant octopus" is enough to warrant myself as badass.

you talking about the submarine captain towards the end of the movie?

by the way, the whole montage with the 3 scientists mixing chemicals was just absurd.

Just added it on Netflix. Anything bad for kids in it? This is the kind of crap my six year olds would love.
