A waste of film
From the opening scene, who knew there were so many on a submarine armed with pistols, and that they would shoot away. And that was just the start. The CGI was beyond amateurish, especially the rescue sub. And what was with all that shimmering effects from the shots of the rescue sub docked on the sunken sub? When they set out, it was to be a three hour cruise, and many will know how three hour cruises wind up. Except the most famous one (S.S. Minnow) was a lot more fun. I don’t know about the script, but I cannot believe anyone really talks like many of the cast do, as it was very stilted. I bailed before it was even half over. Radioactive creatures that had to be salvaged for the sake of the experiment. I suppose the props would have added cost to this film, but they went into a submarine that had sunk more than two months prior without any respiratory protection, and all commented on the foul atmosphere. And plenty of dead bodies marinating those two months.

Night Vision
The movie has a good plot for an horror movie and the interaction of soldiers and female scientists is what you expect, not on good terms. The monsters are very well done but you can't see them and some of the action because the movie is so dark in the corridors where the soldiers run into the Big Bad Monsters. If you can deal with shots of flash lights moving around or people talking in the darkness then you will like this movie.Oh! i almost forgot the crazy guys; there's two of them

Good for background/ambiance, not so much for watching...
Whelp... not very good.It had potential, though. Well, at least I thought so.On presentation- it was TOO dark (most of the time) and the CGI appeared to have been done by a novice.On characters- the scientists and soldiers were 'angry' with each other, but no real explanation why.On plot/set- hey, killer scorpions all over the boat, let's spread out, take naps, and find time for sex! Endless ammo too! And, let's make the sub corridors, etc., much bigger than reality.

A Waste of Film
Writers of this script for this Movie Made 1 Real Mistake,That Is The Writers Didn't Have Enough Information About Arachnology,The Study Of Scorpions.2nd Had Writers done their Research of Scorpions ,The Writers Would Find Out,The Smell Of Blood Would Have Put the Scorpions Into a Feeding Frenzy, including Gigantic Scorpions To Not Only Kill The Submarine Crew But Also Scorpions Would Also Cannibalize Their Own.

TOO BAD FOR WORDS.
Don't ask why I watched the entire movie. This is one of the worst I have seen. Just because you make a movie that is too dark to see much, doesn't make it a good movie. The acting was atrochious and the "scorpions" were ridculous. This is not worth watching and I don't know why I did.

Good combination of horror and comedy
I love B horror movies, and what I liked most about this one was that they had quite a bit of comedy in it as well. It was really a fun film.

This gets 5 stars because I love really terrible movies
This gets 5 stars because I love really terrible movies. This had me laughing out loud in the first two minutes at just how atrocious it was. What a piece of garbage!

Should have been called "Stinker"
Wow, what a terrible film!!Terrible CGI ScorpionsTerrible Storyline (if I can call it a storyline its the same old same old plot)Terrible Acting (although the lady that played Carly was very attractive and was the only reason to watch the entire film)Terrible SetsTerrible death scenesTerrible predictable endingIt's terrible I can't give it a 0/5Seriously, don't buy this or rent it or even youtube it. The term "Worst Film Ever" can be applied to many films but this one is worthy of that award!Stinger? I've been stung alright. Having purchased this tripe.This DVD is an import but has english language. Although, probably best on mute because the dialogue is...you guessed it, terrible!
