The Superdeep is most often a formulaic mess, and a little nonsensical when it's not flat-out uninteresting. Go to Full Review

Not even a few fun moments of creature mayhem can distract from this convoluted mess. Go to Full Review

Exasperatingly, the missing ingredient is a well-developed storyline; nothing in the muddled script hangs together. Go to Full Review

The second Soviet 'Alien' knockoff in recent memory (2020's 'Sputnik' was the other), 'The Superdeep' does far too little with its fun setting. Go to Full Review

Russian borehole horror is just that - boring and full of plot holes... Go to Full Review

Damien C @Dddmmmaaannn Nov 5 There’s something’s lost in translation but overall a creepy build up horror that checks all the right boxes. See more Ian H Feb 9 Enjoyable enough nonsense and some ok special effects but no particularly likeable characters See more Jan 24 It's has a good picture quality..But the story is bad everytime it got intense like something was going to happen nothing did until the end with a werid looking thing...It's not worth watching In my opinion (NoT dohdoh certified) See more Camilo Y 08/29/2024 Could be lower, but if you like the genre of Russian sci-fi horror, it’s entertaining and enjoyable. Worth a random watch on a Tuesday night, the kind of movies you don’t watch because it’s “good”, you watch because you like independent films, and out of curiosity. Good especial effects, intriguing, and personally I liked Milena’s role as Anya. See more Jesus C 07/05/2024 2 hours for one good special effects moment and 4 elevator rides Wow See more Paul M 05/10/2024 Not a terrible movie per se, but it's definitely the case of an interesting concept that gets lost somewhere on its way to the finishing line. The VFX and SFX both practical and digital are quality as well as the leading lady (Milena Radulovic), who really sells the role. Problems lie in its pacing, clarity, supporting case and generic sound design. Again, not entirely unwatchable, fans of the genre or films like Annihilation, or The Abyss might find some enjoyment out of this one... 4.3/10 See more Read all reviews
