Some scenes are amusing, making use of slimy puppets, tentacled creatures, pulsating wounds, and buckets of fake blood, but a terribly unoriginal, notably derivative premise works to keep this early ’90s deep-sea monster movie an obscure curio.

Rated: 3/10

This is one for the masochists and the lovers of ‘so-bad-it’s good’ disasterpieces.

Great cast in this cheap under water knockoff. The creatures may not be as great as in something like Leviathan, but it's still fairly effective. Even when it's a little cliche.

Cheapie undersea horror film that was cashing in on the underwater sci-fi crazy of the early 90s, ALA "The Abyss," "Leviathan," "DeepStar Six," etc. This film involves a submarine crew sent on an underwater rescue mission, but instead find mutant genetically modified monster who hunt them down Alien style. Production values on this film are incredibly cheap and it looks like a TV movie, but the cast is kind of a fun campy group of 80s sort-of-famous actors, who include R. Lee Ermey, Jack Scalia, and Ray Wise. Nothing really to recommend here except for Jack Scalia's massive flowy mullet.

With a poor script and awful visual effects, The Rift suffers from a ridiculous plot that makes Leviathan and DeepStar Six, released the same year, better-made films.
