Credited as directed by Cameron, most of the work done on this movie was by Assonitis. Cameron did however provide the work on the "special effects' and clearly rubber fish (whose designs would later return in a more well known franchise).Credited as directed by Cameron, most of the work done on this movie was by Assonitis.

The movie has the flair of a small Italian man screaming "More fish!" at his crew. Plagued with tonal horrors and incredibly obnoxious side characters, this movie is an absolute delight in being as bad as it is. It's completely devoid of any vision or creativity and reeks of dictatorial leadership in making it. As a result, it creates a framework that barely holds on to its hinges.

This movie begins James Cameron's fascination with water. And what a humble beginnings they are. 7/10

The fish swimming underwater looked better than the original. Also gorier. Just as cheesy and with as much nudity as the first movie. It isn't as good as the first but still kinda fun. Yes, James Cameron made a film about killer flying fish.

Quatre ans après, voici la « suite » du nanar qui coule à pic dans les abysses et cimétières marins des navets pas frais et bien pourraves… L’histoire retiendra qu’il s’agit ici -à l’insu de son plein gré peut-être- du premier long-métrage deQuatre ans après, voici la « suite » du nanar qui coule à pic dans les abysses et cimétières marins des navets pas frais et bien pourraves… L’histoire retiendra qu’il s’agit ici -à l’insu de son plein gré peut-être- du premier long-métrage de James Cameron… un an seulement avant le premier Terminator qui allait (vraiment) lancer sa carrière !

Le film se traîne (comme le premier) et s’avère ridicule de bout en bout bien qu’il soit bien sûr un peu moins bas de gamme… On peut néanmoins y reluquer assez souvent quelques bonnasses pas farouches… et on recommandera à cet effet surtout celle du début. On ne vous en voudra pas si vous zappez direct juste après parce que franchement, le film est particulièrement navrant et lamentable ! j’accorde un point quand même, car on peut y voir (aussi) dans l’un des rôles principaux le très sympathique Lance Henriksen : il ressemble à un hippie !
