3/5

Those who have experienced this overlooked creature-feature know rather well how fun it is, once the action kicks in, the titular star emerges from the depths, and the splatter starts hitting the water.

3.7/5

It's refreshing to see a horror film with a largely black cast that doesn't revolve around the ghetto and in fact doesn't really revolve around race at all.

...rife with over-the-top kill sequences and satisfyingly broad stock characters (including a crazy survivalist and a panicky jerk!)

I knew going into this movie, that it wasn't a Oscar contender, but it still proved to be a fun, little creature feature that I watched at 3 in the morning. It was a worth a watch.

Loved the movie in 2004. Watching again in 2024. Still love it. When my son was 4 this was his favorite movie. Had it on a VHS tape. Lol.

Unlikable main characters, you just hope they are going to die, and as a horror movie it's bad, but if you look at it as a dumb horror comedy, then you might like it.

Okay Cheap thrills and very predictable. Jaws meets Jurassic Park. However this one falls way short of either movie. If you are bored and can't find anything else to watch, then go for it.

My absolute favorite go to creature feature! Different take and setting for the bored, rich, big game hunter looking for a challenge plot.
