Review of Dà zhangyú

.....because this is a pretty good creature feature that pays homage to IT CAME FROM BENEATH THE SEA (1955) and GORGO (1961). In this wild opus, hard-working fisherman Shao Feng rescues a small mutated pink-colored octopus with four eyes. He finds himself working with a brilliant research scientist (a good-looking honeybabe, of course). There's a massive cephalopod with hundred-foot tentacles, a gang of mercenaries, the chairman of Greed Technologies who had been spearheading some unorthodox genetic experiments, a shark that jumps out of the ocean and almost chomps on Shao Feng, an underground installation that was built during the Second World War, and an explosion that destroys an island and kills off the oversized octopus. The Chinese film industry has been making science fiction, horror and monster movies of late. This is a welcome entry, and you can find it on YouTube's YOUKU MOVIE channel. I did.
