The Sea Beast

Corin Nemac, Mariam McDonald, Gary Hudson, Daniel Wisler

Directed by Paul Ziller

Rating: 2 stars

A man gets killed while out with his fishing crew during a rough storm. Everyone said it was because he simply fell overboard but Will McKenna (Corin Nemac) saw something grab him off board. He keeps it to himself until an innocent teenager gets killed by the Sea Beast on the dock. Sheriff Jay McKenna (Gary Hudson) (Will's brother), refuses to believe him, claiming it was something that came out of the woods. So all the macho-men go out into the woods and run into the Sea Beast. Will's daughter Carly (Mariam McDonald) went to a small island with her boyfriend and best friend. However, the Sea Beast kills Carly's friend and we find out that the Sea Beast has babies! The boat is gone and Carly is stranded with her boyfriend. The Sea Beast has dozens of little terrors that everyone is trying to kill off until Will, followed by Carly and her boyfriend destroy the whole egg nest in an abandoned ship.

The Sea Beast is a cheesy and dumb made-for-tv sci-fi (science-fiction for those who don't know) movie that should have never been made. However, this is a movie you should not watch alone, preferably with someone who can make you laugh along with it. This movie deserves two stars because it is just so bad. It deserves two instead of one star because at least you can laugh a little at how ridiculous it is. First of all, Sea Beast? This aquatic monster looks like a mix between the Creature from the Black Lagoon and a barracuda. Second, Carly definitely wears the pants in her relationship. She ended up saving herself and boyfriend a few times from the Sea Beast's babies. And third, her boyfriend is stupid. He tried to take a picture of the Sea Beast baby and it bit his hand... The bite later swells and then he tries to squeeze it. Definitely an ew factor when the pus comes out. Yeah, that movie went there. I would recommend this movie for people who enjoy bad sci-fi movies, like Frankenfish and Deep Blue Sea.
