Absolutely the worst movie.

The movie turns out to be a little better than the average. Starting from a romantic formula often seen in the cinema, it ends in the most predictable (and somewhat bland) way.

Early on, one of the regular crewmen of the drilling facility comments on how surprisingly young the recently-arrived workers are.One replies that the worker isn't that young himself. As opposed to being "that old" himself which would make sense in the context of the previous sentence. Great coherency there.Later, after disregarding the possibility of killer trilobites on the station, that same girl suggests some DNA sample was from "a pre- millipede or a trilobite or something". Perhaps there was no script, at least not a script containing actual dialogue, and the actors ad-libbed but couldn't hear each other clearly.The lead man meanwhile has history in oil drilling. This trait is so poorly established it seems he's getting into the spirit of oil drilling (his work colleagues consist of older men)and nothing more.Everything that happens gives the feel the story happens over a few days minimum, yet supposedly happened within hours. The main characters, newly arrived on a long flight, at no point even appear tired. Yeah, "Deep Freeze" shouldn't be watched by those who value coherency...Not much gore either because when attacked, victims' lives apparently flash before their eyes although no new footage was shot meaning it consists of flashes of previous scenes.The scariest part? Most horror films focusing on oil workers are actually worse!

Low-budget, derivative "Alien" shlock about an Antarctic base which is being tormented by a creature that killing off base members. It starts out scary enough: one guy who is doing menial grunt work and complaining about it gets swept into a liquid vat by the unseen creature and presumably eaten. Others are beginning to disappear too. So far, so good. Until we finally figure out that we're being stalked by a prehistoric trilobite, which is pretty ridiculous because trilobites were a couple of inches long; even the largest trilobites measured up at 2 feet and were still dwarfed by this human-sized thing. No matter. If you're in the mood to to suspend reality and say, OK, let's just run with the economy-sized trilobite concept, the movie has other flaws. The special effects are pretty bad. The trilobite looks like it's made of spray-painted foam. The only scary part of the second half of the movie is when some old, hairy geezer has a shower scene and gets killed by the trilobite. (There are several attractive women in the movie, and they save the shower scene for the old dude with hair on his back?!?!?) Other than that, this is pretty formulaic. We have the "five minutes of scientific explanation" scene, the "climactic confrontation" scene and the "we think we killed it, but unbeknownst to us the monster is up for one last stand" scene (in this case, there's a daddy trilobite that's the size of a dinosaur that has been hiding throughout the movie, apparently until just the right time). The movie is also agonizingly slow until things pick up in the final 15 minutes. Was looking forward to this movie but it rates a disappointing 3.

I only saw this movie because of Allen Lee Haff being in it, but I have to say that, even though it wasn't the best horror movie (can you call it a horror movie if it's not scary?) I've seen, it wasn't the worst. It certainly surpassed Rodentz! But anyway, the movie was okay, and I liked the different storyline. There were a few scenes that looked kinda fake, but a few that had some good effects to them. There was one scene though, the really ticked me off. In one scene, it shows the "creature" chasing after Allen and Rebekah's characters after it finished killing someone, and Allen has a gun, but he doesn't shoot the thing! He just runs away with the others, ending up in a situation with the creature, where he falls about 2 flights of stairs and wrestles with the creature, only to get a tiny scratch on his face and his shirt a little bit dirty. Come on. It was also amusing that Allen's character, who was supposed to be southern,-I think from Texas-kept losing his accent every now and then. Ha! The ending was rather stereotypical as well, but you gotta do something I guess. But sad to say, I kinda liked the movie, and not just because I got some Allen eye candy.~K~

SPOILERS AHEAD - but only so you don't have to suffer this awful monster movie.Group of scientists, students etc.. travel to reserch lab in the Antartic & get attacked by a rather funny looking monster which resembles a big beetle. That's it.Didn't expect much from this J C Buechler directed movie but at least the monster fx should have been good, they aren't. It's goreless too, they couldn't even get the 'Alien' style chestbuster scene right.One of the few movies I've watched that required extended use of the fast forward buttom - during the attack scenes(!)Absolutely no redeeming values what so ever.The UK dvd contains the film &...wait for it, a pathetic photo gallery.
