Jonathan T @RT59178512 Jun 2, 2024 The Crater Lake Monster PG (gore and killing) - fantasy and beasts Sciencefiction Monsters See more David W @Sternhammer Mar 28, 2023 Only watchable in the context of it being so bad its good. The plot makes very little actual sense and is full of insistencies, the acting and attempts at comedy, suspense, action or horror are terrible, the special effects would be an embarrassment to Ray Harryhausen 30 years prior, the direction/editing are lousy and finally its all shot on film that whilst colour is so indistinct its difficult to tell what you're looking at sometimes. All in all its really bad and yet somehow my wife and I actually (admittedly for all the wrong reasons) enjoyed it. The ending is one of most unintentionally funny we've seen in a while.. See more bill t @Spuzz Dec 27, 2022 True that it's just a ridiculous monster movie, but there's something endearing about the whole excercise. Maybe it's just because it gave me an ending that I wasn't expecting that made me re-evaluate the movie. But.. Nevertheless, some bad acting, some weird plot lines (I like the serial killer drunk guy, did they add that to pad the movie?) and some shoddy special effects. But I do say some, because the stop motion dino effects are very good. So there are a FEW things going for it, and the whole "bad movie" karma that it has (and actually deserves) along with the good, certainly makes this one worth a watch.

Which results in bright day scenes with people using flashlights, talking about how beautiful the stars look and so on. These scenes are hilarious and would be the only reason for watching this film. The cuts also effected the monster effects and forced them to use stock music instead of a proper score. While the unintentional comedy was amusing the intentional comedy was eye rollingly bad. See more Sep 14, 2019 Its a low budget monster movie from the 70s. Just with that you know what youre getting XD A lot of talking, exterior shots galore, and when the monter actually shows you cant help but laugh. If you wanna make fun of it while you watch then id recommend XD See more Read all reviews
