trishaade The only thing this movie has going for it is the soundtrack and some of the cinematography. How it has a rating of 6 I'll never know. Jason and Sam are going to go visit Sam's sister who lives in the middle of nowhere. When they arrive, the relatives aren't around, so they decide to go exploring. They come upon a nasty looking lake and decide to jump on in. Not a good plan. Jason ends up with a parasite in his leg and the leg becomes badly infected. He stars losing his mind. Sam and Jason arrived by car. Does Sam take Jason immediately to the nearest town where he can get medical help? Of course not. Do the phones work? Of course not. Do they find a key they need when they have never been there before? Of course they do. Does Jason's limp come and go? Of course it does. Does Sam conveniently find a video camera that partially explains where her family is? Of course she does.Horror movies that are stupid and convenient really run my nerves. Add to that the insipid dialog ("I'm the reason why my car isn't working! I can't control myself anymore!") and horrible acting and you've really got a turkey on your hands. I managed to make it all the way through, but it sure was a struggle. My eyes hurt by the end of this debacle because of all the rolling of them I did. The fact that it's low budget isn't an issue for me. I've seen low budget movies that I've absolutely loved. This isn't one of them. I wouldn't recommend this film to anyone.

djangozelf-12351 The most promising scene in this was an obvious rip off from the evil dead remake. The rest of the movie is ruined by terrible sound and light effects. The dialogue by the four women are annoying and the audio goes from bad to worse.Some make up seemed O.K.but this also was only for one or two scenes and more silly than scary. They do use a lot of blood but in such a way that it looses meaning pretty fast because it don't really add to the movie. The movie relies to much on the ladies acting skills which is a huge mistake because non of them can.If they had focused on the creature it could have been something more but sadly they did not do that.It is the sort of movie where the pro's don't outweigh the con's and therefor the overall feel becomes totally forgettable.A waste of a movie for the big old B-movie pile.I can not recommend it.Warning...watch at own risk.

Paul Magne Haakonsen I thought I had already seen the most boring movie, but then I came across "From Beneath". I stand corrected. This movie was so boring and uneventful that it was a struggle to stay awake through it from start till end.The story in "From Beneath" is about a young couple who are out somewhere in the middle of nowhere, apparently, as they have no coverage for their mobile phones. A strange creature latches onto Jason and starts taking over his mind and body.Sure, the story was good enough in theory, but it just didn't offer anything new to the genre, nor did it at any point turn out to be anywhere remotely near scary or thrilling. The story was slow-moving and uneventful. And the horrible dialogue and staggering acting didn't really help the movie along in any way.There were so many things in the movie that just makes you stop and wonder in amazement, why someone would do such a thing in the given situation. There was a lot of moments in the movie that was just not making much sense.What I found most fun about "From Beneath" was the undefinable sources of bright light that was present in the middle of the dark woods at night. That was just hilarious. And as for creature effects, well don't expect to actually see anything aside from the odd tentacles emerging out of the water.If you enjoy thrillers and this particular genre of movies, then there are far better movies available. "From Beneath" is unfathomably boring on every account.I was thoroughly 'bored from beneath'.

erindocking This film, while currently it shows a poor rating, had me enthralled right to the climatic ending.You can't go into this film though thinking big effects and high budget because if thats the case you will be disappointed. Simply put it is not a A list movie and didn't have the big production behind it. But the quality of what was shot on a limited budget is remarkable.The story and the delivery from its actors especially Lauren Watson who in my mind was the standout and carried the film through some of the slower scenes, was realistic, and raw. Her delivery made me really feel for her character; especially through some of the more emotional scenes.While it was slow moving at times, I didn't find myself ever bored. I was always curious to how it would end and never once did I even get close to guessing the startling conclusion.If you can watch a film with an open mind then I recommend this one to you.
