Underwater 2020 Horror Movie - With a big surprise
 
https://external-content.duckduckgo....peg&f=1&nofb=1

I just posted a review in the topic here.

But I thought this movie needed a topic as it's worth checking out. And it flopped at the Box Office. They could have marketed this movie a lot better as there is a big surprise in the movie which I posted in the spoiler review.

We need more movies like this
 
I agree, UNDERWATER is a very cool movie and the surprise at the end was very well done. Hopefully we will get more movies using this "genre" in the future, including DEL TORRO'S adaption of AT THE MOUNTAINS OF MADNESS. These stories need to be told.

Sadly, I don't think there's anything in the works with Del Torro to do At the Mountains of Madness. Personally, I'd rather not see it done if it isn't done right. I think Del Torro's the guy to pull it off and he really, really wants to make it but he needs a lot of money, A list actors and studio backing to make that happen. Hopefully, someday.

I think del Toro will make it. I saw an interview with him a few months back when he joked that he wore the Mistakonic University ring because he loved the book that much.

I read that interview also so he seems committed to the idea but he also says it isn't up to him. I'm very hopeful, fingers crossed.

Same here, if anyone understands how a Lovecraft story needs to be told, it's him. Would Nicholas Cage be the right person to play the lead? I think so.

I was pleasantly surprised about this movie, what stood out for me most were 3 things:
1. the beautiful set (environment and underwater suits)
2. the Characters personalities reflected trough out the journey
3. the mind twist at the end, I am a big fan of lovecraft

I have to disagree with you on the characters. The movie didn't make me care about any of them, which made it much less engagning.

Good to have ya, 16Bitnights! I have to agree with Angra; I didn't care about the characters in Underwater either. I thought they were very bland and shallow. I did mildly enjoy the funny comments of one character, but I don't recall who was or what was motivating his actions.

I understand, in comparison with movies like "the thing" they are very low but for me in comparison to what was released in past years, they were solid.
