Review of Dead Sea

Dead Sea (2014)
8/10
Where's the monster?
21 May 2014
I checked out this movie because of the cover art depicting a giant snake looking thing with a tongue, apparently used to lap up succulent girls...

...but I didn't see this monster in the movie. Distributors have been known to use DVD box art to market films in a certain way, but this one takes the cake as you buy it expecting Piranha 3DD but get a psychopathic mystery movie instead, which probably explains the polarizing reaction to it in the user reviews here (including my own polarizing reaction) and is why I'm writing my first review I guess.

The story is interesting enough but the film itself is not consistent to it. The PTSD guys are scarier than the monster we see (when we see it). Sound is a bit messy. Someone pointed out that the monster has tentacles but I thought they were smaller monsters. WE never see their tails so that's up for debate.

5 or 6 of 10, now that I've settled down from my complete and utter shock that this isn't the movie I wanted to see.
