Alien from the Deep
We don’t want to waste words on this film's sources of
inspiration. Moreover the title " Alien from the Deep" explains a lot,
if not all. Maybe it does not explain, however, that the good Antonio
Margheriti has lost a lot of his art and that Tito Carpi, who writes
the script, is not far behind. Indeed, the main problem is precisely
the script.
And so here we are in a very boring fanta-horror divisible into two
parts. The first environmentalist and the second adventurous and horror
fanta. A film in which the inevitable monster emerges from some depth
and shows itself in all its splendor only at the end and which
describes the villains as ruthless speculators of natural resources.
The company that is destroying the world is called E-Chem and has a
nuclear power plant on a tropical island, near a volcano that is filled
with toxic waste. At whose command there is the good Charles Napier who
plays Kovacks a colonel who doesn’t care anything a part his
goals. Lee and Jane played by Robert Marius and Julia McKay (ie Marina
Giulia Cavalli) are two ecologists who want to enter the industrial
site and investigate what E-Chem is doing.
After being discovered and captured, Jane manages to escape and thanks
to the help of a herpetologist (mah ...) who has been living on the
island for some time, she returns to the site to free Lee, who however
has been contaminated by a substance. But the biggest problem is the
monster that comes out of the depths of the volcano and makes a
massacre, probably galvanized by the toxic waste that has been thrown
on its head for some time.
Among dialogues rather than captions, predictable situations, bad
acting, bad effects, Margheriti poisons us with a difficult film to
follow and difficult to understand. A nice b movie, seen from our
perspective, which also sees the presence of Luciano Pigozzi under the
name of Alan Collins.
