Mega Shark vs. Giant Octopus (DVD)

Mega Shark vs. Giant Octopus

I just don't understand why this movie was ever made...Maybe theproducer was itching to let some (a few million) dollars slip out of hisfingers, just like that. Apart from the title of the movie, there isnothing else that is worthy of attention...

This movie was Dead Dull from beginning to end, and bear with me as I unfold its mysteries (as if there were any!!!)

(AGAIN, SPOILERS AHEAD, SO SAVE YOURSELF SOME TIME AND CONSIDER THE ABOVEMESSAGE AS A WARNING AND CARRY ON WITH YOUR BUSINESS!!!) ........................................................................................ ..................................................................................................................................................................

So you decided to read anyway. Never mind, let's begin: It all startswhen two scientists accidentally discover a mega shark and giantoctopus buried in ice under the sea. Now the ice obviously breaks due to awhale collapsing incident, which our doctors were right on time towitness by the way, on an experimental submarine which they had stolenfor exploration (probably written in script to give the BADASS side tothe otherwise nerdy protagonist, i.e, Deborah Gibson, the woman playingEmma).

Anyway, soon after these prehistoric creatures are at loose once again,they start hunting for food and bizarre incidents start happening allaround the globe like tearing up of an oil rig by our friend octopusand disappearance of an airplane flying at 15,000 feet at around200 nautical miles per hour, courtesy Mega Shark (Come on now, enough isenough!! I could digest the oil rig bit, but this is too much! Theshark actually jumps I don't know 15,000 feet in the air, grabs the planeby its wings and plummits it down under the ocean, Jesus!)

Anyhoo, soon the story turns to our protagonists Emma, her retired or I don't know retarded professor and her would-be lover Dr. Seiji Shimada for a solution to this menace...So after a lot of of shots devoted towhat can only be described as a high school chemistry laboratory, ourfellow doctors come up with a solution: Pheromones - to lure them asbait (only after having an intense session of love making in the so-called research lab storageroom: this is where it strikes them!!! What a lame excuse to put a Sex Scene into the movie!!)

The creatures however are too smart for us humans and although they getlured by pheromones (now who wouldn't!), they eventually escape, These aretroubled times as our Governments are now thinking of deploying nukesto stop these beasts and by governments I mean a guy with a ponytailA.K.A. Allan Baxter played by Lorenzo Lamas, now I still couldn't figureout which agency was he working for, and honestly speaking I have not enoughstamina or will to watch this movie again, just for that!

Ultimately our genius doctors/scientists decide that since thepheromone thing worked a little bit, they are gonna give it anothertry, but this time they'll lure the beasts to a single location farfrom civilization under the ocean abyss, so that they can kill eachother off and finally finish off what they started millions of yearsago... The rest, my friends, as they say, is History...

P.S. The special effects were not so "special"...

P.P.S. If these creatures were so hungry all the time why didn't theydestroyed the submarine (which had EMMA AND VINCE on board) and eat them,when it was meters away when they first got loose?? (Myguess: otherwise the movie would not have been made!!!)

Watch it at your own risk!!!
