After being huge fan of The Texas Chainsaw Massacre took an interest in this movie (the Title did it) especially considering the review splattered across the cover.. Yeah thanks Bizarre are you sure you were watching the same movie. The Opening is not too bad, spooky music and old footage of chopping up minke whales or whatever then cuts to present day usual set up young girls club etc.... Up until this point all seems the norm. It all goes pear shape when you meet the rest of the fodder (I wanted to press mute every time the french guy spoke) as previously said very cliché type mixture but the acting and dialogue is atrocious. The one interesting character (bleached blonde hair) vanishes never to be seen again. When they eventually end up stranded and rescued - NOT! by the Whalers and taken to the ship it all kicks off pretty quickly. Now this makes a welcome change but thats as far as it goes. You can see why they relate it to the TCM i.e Odd family weird shot away brother with squeaky voice but it just not on the same level. The Deaths are not up to scratch effects wise as you would of expected. Harpoon scene is by far the best and to be fair is actually a good scene. As the movie progresses the dialogue gets a lot worse (in case of the gay bloke he's more wooden than Pinocchio) and the blonde eye candy at the beginning start to get on your nerves ( poor dialogue ) and you end up begging them to get killed. In fact all the characters annoy you by the end if its not the dialogue, acting or plain stupidness ( you shout at the screen for Christ sake finish him lol ). Overall was disappointed with this movie as could of been much better and should of been. I know when a movie sucks when you wishing it to hurry up and finish plus your thinking what a load of balls.
