Kattiera Nana I think this is a new genre that they're all sort of working their way through it and haven't got all the kinks worked out yet but it's a genre that works for me.

Mjeteconer Just perfect...

Steineded How sad is this?

Claysaba Excellent, Without a doubt!!

Michael_Elliott Sharktopus vs. Pteracuda (2014) * 1/2 (out of 4) A (what else?) nutty scientist creates a half pterodactyl, half barracuda, which breaks free and goes on a killing rampage. To try and battle it they set free the half shark, half octopuses and soon the two are killing countless swimmers and battling each other.SHARKTOPUS was a pretty bad made-for-TV movie but I'm sure the concept alone got people to tune in so we were greeted with this sequel, which is slightly better but that's really not saying too much. When it comes to these types of movies, one really shouldn't expect quality but instead they should just hope for something entertaining. With that being said, SHARKTOPUS VS. PTERACUDA isn't a complete success but there are enough campy moments to make it worth viewing once if you're a fan of these types of films.The highlight has to be the cameo by Conan O'Brien. O'Brien, the actor, is quite annoying playing himself here as he simply goes too far over-the-top but what follows is quite campy and actually hilarious. I'm not going to ruin his fate or what happens but it's quite funny. Robert Carradine is decent in his role as are Akari Endo and Tony Evangelista as the heroes. There are a lot of fun and gory deaths throughout the running time but after a while the movie really gets boring and it starts off rather poorly. Too many slow moments keep this from being more entertaining.

SanteeFats Well I doubt I'll watch this one again but it wasn't as bad as I expected for a SyFy made movie. The opening scene with the biologist taking samples and pulling up an egg sac was so wrong when she said it could be from a Great White. They pup live young, octopi do the egg sac thing. Robert Carradine is very good in his character, a little insouciant, pragmatic, rich, and just good. Conan O'Brien looks very old in his, thank goodness, brief appearance. So anyway after the bird-fish goes bananas and Carradine bribes the owner to release the sharktopus to counter act it, Ha Ha, things go as you would expect. Blood, dead people, violence, more dead people, the creatures hunting each other when they aren't eating people, very predictable. I thought the sharktopus was suppose to only go hunting the flying fish thing when it was implanted but it slaughters as many people as the fishy thing. This is all started by an apparent Russian agent working as a slimy mercenary, who has high jacked the birdyfish's control signals. The interaction between the biologist who worked with sharky and her lifeguard boyfriend is kinda funny, at least at times. They find the mercenary, he escapes through some badly written scene, they track him, wound him, and the birdy thing rips his arm off, he dies, a fitting end. Carradine's end epitomizes poetic justice. The end when it finally comes is predictable and trite. The two creatures plunge to the depths with a bomb in the birdy, it blows up, both appear to die, but then just before it is over guess what shows up?? (hey gotta leave room for another darn sequel).

suite92 The TV movie opens with a flashback to the end of a previous sharktopus film, where the sharktopus is killed, but it manages to cast off a little sharktopus. In the present, Harold has an ocean side resort where he keeps the now grown-up new sharktopus. Lorena is trying to teach the monster new, better behavior. Harold hopes the chimera becomes a hot attraction for his water resort.Former MIT researcher Symes has put together another chimera, pteracuda (pteradactyl plus giant barracuda). Unfortunately, a foreign agent, Vladimir, has hijacked the ability to remote-control the pteracuda. Symes had hoped to sell the pteracuda as a particularly expensive genetic weapon, so losing control of the chimera is a disaster for him.In order to get control back, Symes pays Harold a briefcase full of money for the sharktopus. Subsequently, Symes and Ham kidnap Lorena in the hopes that they can reassert control of the sharktopus.Both chimeras do a lot of damage to human beings. Will the humans ever assert control over them? Will the they be able to put an end to the killing? Will Vladimir be neutralized? Will the Fukushima scenario be implemented? -----Scores-----Cinematography: 7/10 Most of it is rather good. The CGI quality was mixed; some looked sharp and well done, some was truly bad.Sound: 7/10 Neither great nor especially poor.Acting: 5/10 Robert Carradine, Rib Hillis, and Katie Savoy were reasonably good, but most of the others were not so much.Screenplay: 4/10 There was a bit more plot than I expected.

crzy_girl_15 If this wasn't a joke, it was sad. The CGI sucked. The writing was awful. By the end of the first hour, there was a dent in the wall from me hitting my head on it. Someone created a shark/octopus hybrid. Someone else created a pterodactyl/barracuda hybrid. Then they both escaped. Now they have to battle to the death in an extremely predictable sci-fi way. The only thing amazing about this movie is that someone funded it.If you can't guess the entire plot from the first five minutes, you deserve to watch the rest of it. Do you like your remaining brain cells? Then avoid this at all cost. Please don't watch this. Even for a bad movie it sucks. I want my two hours back.
