Review of Humanoids from the Deep (1980) by Melvin W — 02 Jun 2013
"They're not human. But they hunt human women. Not for killing. For mating.".
Humanoids from the Deep is what you'd expect from a movie about fish that evolve because of scientific experiments and begin to ravage a town by killing the men and raping the women. So... it isn't good. It's a B-movie in every way. From the awful acting, to how the creatures look, to the fact that breasts have to be shown all the time to make us forget about how bad the movie is, and go "Oh, boobies." There's still a certain amount of fun to be had though if you can give your brain over to the film. Roger Corman made a living making bad movies like this watchable and he succeeds here, I guess, but I still didn't like it. .
This one is only worth a look if you are a hardcore fan of Roger Corman and his films. I like Corman, but this movie is just a little too bad for my taste. I like a terrible movie every once in awhile, but with Humanoids from the Deep, it just didn't have that so bad it's good quality to it. In my eyes it was just bad. It's cheap, it's exploitive, it's dumb, it's bloody, it's everything you'd expect from a Corman produced film. .
