Movie Review:

Humanoids From the Deep

Review by The Diesel

Hordes of sea monsters, who have somehow lived unnoticed in large caves along the perpetually foggy coast, decide it's time to relocate and terrorize the inhabitants of a small fishing town. The sea monsters, which resemble steroid injected Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles with a small twist of Joey Buttafuco, have huge heads, street smarts, and tactical skills.

A new cannery is being constructed that will bring prosperity to the town. While most of the locals are looking forward to the rejuvenation of their area, a proud Indian, Johnny Eagle, doesn't approve of the negative environmental impact the cannery will have. The sea monsters unwittingly increase tensions as they kill dogs, claw people, and break machinery, leading those on both sides of the cannery dispute to accuse the opposition of strong-arm diplomacy. Being highly sexually charged creatures, the sea monsters tend to focus their attacks on bra-less women using a classic blouse removal technique (violently pull on victims right side of blouse just below second button).

After a few more attacks some Indian haters decide to teach Johnny Eagle and his Earth loving friends a tough lesson. Led by an angry afro-styled white guy, the Indian haters load their small boat with Olympia beer and a couple of Molotov cocktails. When they get to Johnny Eagle's poorly constructed river shack, they acurately toss the Molotov cocktails from their small paddleboat with excellent results. Johnny Eagle's river shack and all the other buildings surrounding it begin to explode and re-explode until it looks like a precision napalm strike.

Eventually, the sea monsters coordinate an Omaha Beach style invasion at the annual dance festival, which, convenient for the sea monsters, takes place right on the docks. Once the sea monsters attack, the townsfolk begin running and screaming in every direction despite the exit being at one end of the pier. A horrific battle ensues with lots of smoke, people running, and many acts of human bravery. After such human tragedy, only time and a win from the local National Football League team can heal the deep wounds left by the mean spirited creatures.
