The movie does lose some semblance of cohesion during some cave scenes, but really this is just someone else's take on Descent. It's got flaws but what doesn't. The acting is fair, decent plot but execution could have been a bit better. Again it's an indie film, and I've seen A LOT worse indie films that somehow have better ratings.

Disclaimer: I received a screening link of this movie from the publicist. This in no way influences my review. I was surprised when I first started watching It Came From Below. I was expecting, well, all the negatives that can come along with a low-budget film. However, the sister and brother won me over fairly quick and I found myself actually interested in the film. As it went on, even though the elements were all too familiar from various caving movies out there, I was still fairly invested in the film. This, I thought, might turn out to be a hidden gem (a low-quality gem, but still a gem.) And then we hit the last half of the movie and things went to pieces. Thing after thing happened that didn't make sense. Some of the logic of reality gaps were atrocious. And the end had me absolutely scratching my head and wondering if they'd really went there. (They had.) The dialogue was decent. I've seen far, far worse camera work and lighting. The creature was delightfully gooey. But overall, I just can't recommend this.

This honestly had the chance to be a good movie. But it fell flat. The worst part was the music. No matter what I did I could not hear the majority of the dialogue because of the music. It was frustrating and because of this I had a hard time actually figuring out what was going on. I actually created an account because I wanted to review this movie it was so poorly edited. Seriously people, it is called background music for a reason.

Jessis's father died in a spelunking trip gone wrong when alien creatures attacked everyone. No one believes that to be what actually happened and, as usually happens, everyone pays the price. And by price, I mean some truly gruesome sound design that really is the star of this movie. Either I'm getting old or people are making movies way too dark these days. Probably both. Either way, the end of this movie just got less claustrophobic and more confusing, which can't have been the intent. This was directed by Dan Allen (Unhinged), who co-wrote the film with Sam Ashurst, who has also directed a few motion pictures of his own like A Little More Flesh and Needle Drop. I wanted to like this more than I did, but when the brave explorers showed up to a cave with absolutely no real equipment knowing that a people-eating monster could be inside, I kind of stepped back.

Stopped watching 30 mins in. Awful is not even a strong enough adjective. Prime will add anything to their catalog... There's some films that are so bad I wonder how they were even made. Someone had to have the idea. Then somebody had to give it a green light and actually finance this crap. And finally there was a crew involved. My goodness. I have it a shot because of the half decent score by that was a mistake. I could have taken a 30 minute nap and had a dream more eventful than this mess.

Don't know what I just watched. Couldn't hear any of it as the music score was WAY too loud. So loud you can't hear any dialog. If you feel the need to watch this use subtitles.
