Deep Rising earns it cult status with good gore and inventive kills.

Tremors meets Titanic in this cheesy but entertaining sea-monster movie from director Stephen Sommers.

| Original Score: 3/5 | Feb 2, 2024

Whether Deep Rising was merely a stand-alone horror film pummeled at the box, or a galaxy-brained stealth prequel for a monster franchise that failed...there's one axiom that still holds true: They don’t make B-movies like they used to.

It's a peak American 1990s action film, boasting numerous explosions, jet skis, New Gilded Age hubris, uneasy racial politics, anxieties about computer technology, surveillance, and state-of-the-art digital effects by Industrial Light and Magic.

Ya gotta give a sliver of credit to any movie that would include the term "Half-Digested Billy" in its closing credits.

| Original Score: 2/4 | Jun 7, 2021

It's man-eating tentacles on a boat directed by Stephen Sommers. What more could you ask for?

| Original Score: 4/5 | Dec 30, 2020

Every single line of dialogue was a one-liner and it was just every single trope.

| Original Score: 3/10 | Oct 21, 2020

One of the big problems with this film compiled out of big problems: it has awful characters, and awful performances bringing them to life.

| Original Score: 1.5/5 | Jul 29, 2018

For a movie with so much story and set up, it's shocking how well "Deep Rising" comes together.

The rest of the movie is a predictable guns 'n' beasts gorefest that wants to be equal parts Aliens, Titanic, and Anaconda but winds up being all parts crap.

| Original Score: 1/5 | Jul 6, 2010

...a larger-than-life premise that is, by and large, employed to fun and engaging effect by Sommers...

It's Poseidon Adventure, Alien Resurrection, any heist movies, Jaws, and a little art house flick called Titanic all in one.
