My only thought on this film, which I love as does my husband is this. Clearly it. Started grabbing passengers when they ran out towards the lifeboats. Why didn’t more passengers hide up in the higher decks of the ship. Some could have hidden in storerooms or areas where there were lots of background noise. I would have hidden with my husband in a linen store. We have been on a cruise before. No pipes or toilets and linen could be used to insulate the room so as long as your quiet there wouldn’t be any movement.

Absolutely loved this movie as a kid, from start to perfect finish. I only wish I could have seen it in theaters when it first came out. None of the trailers gave away what the creature was, so that thrill of discovery would have been all the greater on the big screen.

Watched this movie on TV when I was a kid. Scared the hell out of me. Especially the scene where the captain gets eaten. Fun fact about the guns used, it’s a fusion of a mini-gun and a Calico pistol. I absolutely love Calicos. Their design is very “unique”. If you showed one to a random person they’d probably immediately think it’s a toy laser gun. Their .22 pistol has a 100 round capacity drum magazine. You can make the argument that while the gun itself cannot have a feasible 1000 round mag, it is not difficult at all for one person carry 1000 rounds of ammunition.

3:32 The sudden cutoff of these jokes always get me good.

Its not a Roanoke video without the Angler fish catching strays occasionally.

Roanoke, me boi. I, too, was deeply saddened when the lady repairing the boar was instantly dragged off and gone. It's a part of film that always sat wrong with me throughout the ywars. My second regret was mixing this up with Mercury Rising at the video rental store and finding myself exposed to weapons grade levels of Autismol that rivaled the kid from Jurassic World and the other one from The Predator. Reading the plot explains the plot.

I really liked this movie, which sadly didn't get the recognition it deserves. Another movie that doesn't get the recognition I feel it deserves, also from the 90's, is the movie, "Virus", which was adapted from the comic by the same name, has a good cast including Alec Baldwin & Jamie Lee Curtis, also takes place on a big ship in the open sea, and also features monsters. The effects are mostly physical with some stop motion puppetry, as this was made in early 90 which hadn't yet perfected the art of CGI, but I personally appreciate practical affects. Some people hated it but I loved it.

Only a few good movie lovers remember "Virus"! You can't beat that plot. I remember "Leviathan" which cast Ernie Hudson from "Ghostbusters", and Hector Elizondo from "Beverly Hills Cop 3". These kinds of 90's horror movies had incredible storylines, and characters. This is why these movies can be rewatched over and over and enjoyed the same way as when we enjoyed them in the 90's. Deep Star Six was a good one as well but not like "Deep Rising" and "Leviathan". These movies got it all going for them. Great storylines, a talented cast, a mix of horror and comedic scenes and perfect special affects of that time. I must add "Relic" was another good one.

Buddy I love your reviews!! Thanks for what you do!

Crazy I’ve been really hoping you’d do this since I found the page, scrolled through the entire feed and was surprised when you didn’t do it yet. this is one I’ve been waiting for ^-^

While the effects are a bit dated, this movie is a ton of fun and could fit perfectly into the monsterverse. A pity it never go a sequel.

I think I listened to a directors commentary, but I’m pretty sure the island was supposed to be the Island of Monsters from Greek mythology, and the creature was Scylla and/or Charybdis that guarded its shores. Hence why the ship was called the Argonautica, clear reference to the Greek myth of the Argonaut.

I was really hoping for a part 2 to this when they arrived at the island.

One of my favorite monster flics from the late 90s. Great video as always Roanoke, and as terrifying as the Octolus is, I am once again reminded of the even more horrifying "Nervous System Man" residing in my meatsuit!

Crazy you’re covering this movie! Cool

9:30 - ahh yes, numb.exe.. I remember that Trojan horse very well 😭😭

9:10...Linkin Park's "Numb"...Great track

That island at the end is skull Island. This movie was actually supposed to be the start of a new king kong series but it got held up in production limbo until peter Jackson got the rights to kong and made his 2005 kong movie. So that was actually king kong making his way to them through the forest. Too bad we never got to see how this king kong would have ended up.

Also, deep sea gigantism reduces the amount of sustenance to live due to fewer organisms to feast upon. The larger the organism, the slower its metabolic rate is.

As a German I remember seeing that movie back in the days in the cinema, but it was called "octalus" here, also since it was the 90ties some naughty bits were cut out of several media since they were deemed to gruesome for the youth to see, so yeah the half eaten dude in the thumbnail I hardly can remember (yeah he was spät out of that tentacle but him standing up again was most certainly not in the version I saw, that I would remember) but to be honest except the mouth on the tentacles the story I had forgotten ... My point being, some silly cuts where more noticeable especially in video games, to ensure the titles could be played in Germany, Resident Evil 3 for example had the blood of the zombies colored grey, what not that bad tbh but they also blinked away if they were defeated thus eliminating the horror of not knowing if the zomby will rise again ... Strangely enough in RE4 the enemies dissolve now as well in uncut Version ... On the other side RE4 isn't a game worthy of that title anyway but I digress Other games like the original PS1 RE2 were right out banned, the reason seems to be you were able to "kill" humans, allegedly the Brad Vickers, even though you had to get to the police station without using health items or reloading to get to him iirc

Any day where Roanoke uploads is a good day. Angler Fish joke? Check. Great commentary? Check.

3:30 HA! Oh boy that one got me, I’ll be honest man, I needed a good laugh today. Thanks a ton.

Unfortunately a sequel was never made, which really bummed me out. I loved this movie growing up!

Deep rising is such a great film. I haven't seen it for years but can't wait to watch it again. And yes you can lose at Solitair, you can run out of moves you can make.

Always loved this movie, same guy who did the mummy with Brendan Fraser, joey was awesome xD, still got my VHS

moose actually follow the plural conventions that geese do, so multiple moose are considered a herd of meese.

My man, you're entirely wrong. Goose is of Germanic descent, moose is of Algonquian descent. It does not follow the same plural convention. Plural of moose is moose - someone lied to you. It happens to us all

I love this film. I'm typically desensitized to horror films, as I've been watching them since I was a wee kid and had my father drum into my brother and I that they were all fake and special effects, but the scene where one of the tentacles spits up a half-drank guy actually unnerved me for years, haha.

Roanoke, I’m going to correct you. That is not a plasma torch, that is an oxyacetylene torch. The main reason she isn’t doing anything with it is because she has the neutral flame (the very tiny inside cone) way too far away from what she’s trying to cut. However, she shouldn’t be using any form of cutting tool it that weather, whether it be oxyacetylene or plasma. One uses a very very flammable gas that is under a lot of pressure, the other uses a shit ton of electricity. It seems like the people who made the movie have no concept of firearms, or welding/cutting.

Still waiting in that Mimic video, Roanoke.

'Now what 😔'

The man who's deepest fear is Angler Fish who learn to walk on land keeps covering marine movies. Nah man, I'm here for the trauma. Continue on, tell us more.

The first time I saw deep rising I was about 14, it was a Saturday and this was the super late night movie. I watched it alone, didn't catch the name but got it stuck in my head for years until finally running across it again at random. Now its my go to "you need to watch this movie" movie for anyone 😊❤
