The premise of this movie sound's promising. A giant octopus in a Jaws like movie, but somehow the mixture of Italian movie and Hollywood big budget sci-fi just ended up bad chemistry.
The pacing of this movie was all broken up. It seems that actors on one scene from another didn't know what the overall movie was all about. This made the movie look so silly. The atmosphere of the movie flips from one scene to another too. In one scene you're obviously in California, and on another you're in the Mediterranean. European actor and American actors didn't mix well either.
Where did they spend the big budget on ? There're no special effects to speak of. Total appearance time of the octopus in this movie is less than one minute.
My personal opinion is that I didn't like any of the actors in this movie. I usually like Henry Fonda, but in this movie the choice of actors and their acting was horrible.
How they manage to mess this one up so badly is the biggest mystery of them all.
