Product Description

Amazon.ca

This surprisingly satisfying horror movie centers on a mermaid--but it's hardly one of the giggly types from Peter Pan. Rufus Sewell and Carla Gugino play a couple of small-time circus people who discover that an eccentric old man keeps a genuine mermaid in a water-filled tank. Dreaming of an invitation from Ringling Bros., Sewell steals the mermaid and loads her on a ship for America. But in the middle of the Atlantic, the hungry mermaid shows her darker side--and Gugino learns that she may be linked to the mermaid in unexpected ways. She Creature was no doubt made on a low budget, but it looks excellent and the above-average script gives the strong cast firm ground to stand on. The mermaid herself (Rya Kihlsted) is both lovely and eerie. All in all, an enjoyable homage to classic horror films. --Bret Fetzer

2.0 out of 5 stars She Creature goes down with the ship Jun 3 2004
Format:VHS Tape
I hate to say it people that liked this movie that I really didnt. I saw this on digital cable and by my surprise it was boring. It just didnt seem right to me. IT just seemed like another one of those cheesy horror flicks (though it aint) it had some elements to it but all in all I was completely bored. Mermaids are cool, especially this one because she was hot and it was the only reason I watched it, but I watched the Peter Pan movie that came out in December of 2003 and it was a better acting version that Robin William's one. The mermaids in that movie were evil (because it is in the original book). This mermaid is evil too, but more sexy. It's not the worst and it certainly isnt the best. Carla Gugino(tv's Spin City, Snake Eyes), Rufus Sewell(Dark City, A Knight's Tale) Jim Piddock(Best In Show, Tv's Angel) and Gil Bellows(Tv's Ally McBeal, Judas Kiss) star.

4.0 out of 5 stars Wow Jan 15 2004
By Madman
Format:DVD
Like many others I was impressed by this movie. While the intent was to remake old B-Movies in sort of a new B-movie style, I actually witnessed a film full of quality. It's a story of mermaids, but these mermaids aren't like the ones you know...they feast on human flesh. The fact that they are every bit as beautiful as the fables tell us means that they are that much more dangerous.

With Stan Winston handling the effects, you know it is impossible to be dissapointed. But can the acting, directing, and story live up to this top notch standard? The answer is, yeah, just about. I had no problem with the acting except that the accents weren't always convincing (many characters are from various countries.) The directing also was impressive aside from a few minor pacing issues, and lastly, the story is actually such an original idea I'm a little bummed it never got a theatrical run. No, it never would have been number 1 in the box office or even in the top 5, but it could have made a lot more money than it did being made for the Showtime channel.

Unfortunately Ive heard the rest of Winston's Creature Features aren't as good. I have seen Earth Vs. The Spider which impressed me about as much as this film, but the remaining three in the series have received some bad reviews.

All in all, the film is definetly worth every cent I paid for it. Unfortunately, horror movies like this are increasingly hard to come by. Without relying on cheap humor which I find out of place in most horror movies, this movie can actually make your skin crawl and make you think. Beware! Bwahahaha....ummm, yeah

4.0 out of 5 stars surprisingly good flick
OK, I admit it: any movie Rufus Sewell does, I will watch and probably buy. That's just the way it is when you're an American fan of a British actor who isn't Hugh Grant! Read more
