Summary: Deepstar Six
Review: The story begins in an underwater facility, roughly two miles beneath the ocean. Not far from the facility, and the small crew operating it, a monstrous crab-like creature resides undisturbed in its cave, but when some missels from the facility are unintentionally launched into the ocean and detonated, the angry creature is forced from its home and is out for blood! Needless to say chaos follows, and the creature eventually finds its way into the very facility responsible for the launch!

I don't want to give away what happens after that, but aside from this movie's obvious low-budget, it does deliver some pretty good thrills, and humerous moments, though the humerous ones were probably unintentional.

All in all, I'd say Deepstar Six is worth a look at on a rainy day, or if there's nothing better on t.v. This DVD looks no better than vhs, it comes with no extra features, and its in fullscreen! So there isn't really any reason to buy this one. I'd sooner buy Leviathan, which is a much better movie, and a nicer DVD.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: WoW! Horror that Grips you and Leaves you Breathless.
Review: This horror show is gripping! So gripping it leaves you breathless. I highly recommend seeing this movie. The acting was very good and the creature wasn't too bad.

Rating: 3 stars
Summary: Decent monster flick.
Review: This is one of the three underwater sea critter flicks from 1989 with " Leviathan" and " The Abyss", it's about these underwater explorers who are in a research sea station under the water, exploring underwater caves then unleashing prehistoric gastropod monsters.

Actually a fair little Sci-fi movie with cool looking Crab monsters and Miguel Ferrer from " Robocop" in a little role.

Summary: DeepStar Six
Review: This movie is a copy of such films as Leviathan and The Abyss. It is entertaining but lacks the true suspense and quality effects found in The Abyss. I was greatly disappointed that this is not presented in wide screen format but rather formatted for TV. If you want to watch a movie that has the made for TV feel then this is OK But if you want a good viewing experience watch The Abyss.

Rating: 3 stars
Summary: Guilty-pleasure movie. Silly but fun.
Review: This, like "Leviathan" released the same year, is kind of a silly knock-off of "The Abyss" with a touch of "Alien" thrown in. The miniature effects are cheesy but earnest, and the cast seems to be having fun. This isn't one for the library, but if it came on TV late night you'd probably enjoy it as much as any other goofy sci-fi flick. Director Sean Cunningham has done better, and Greg Evigan hasn't appeared on the big screen since this film, I don't think, but DEEPSTAR SIX is still kinda fun in a creepy sort of way (or is it creepy in a fun sort of way?).
