Watch Beyond Loch Ness For Free

If you like to be scared, if you like to laugh, and if you like to learn a thing or two at the movies, this absolutely cannot be missed.

The film's masterful storytelling did its job. The message was clear. No need to overdo.

One of the worst ways to make a cult movie is to set out to make a cult movie.

The story, direction, characters, and writing/dialogue is akin to taking a tranquilizer shot to the neck, but everything else was so well done.

I wanted to like Beyond Loch Ness, as I liked the idea. And I have to say that and the acting, which is not great but at least adequate, are the only redeeming values of the movie. Plus at least it is better than something like Warbirds, which also had Brian Krause(and he was the sole redeeming quality of that movie). Other than that, it was a mess. The special effects are terrible, with Nessie especially abominable in look and movement, the editing is haphazard, the colour schemes right at the beginning is much too grainy and the gore is lame, not disturbing in the slightest and as cheap as the effects. The film is also full of clichés not just in the stereotyped characters but also in the cheesy dialogue and the often tedious and over-familiar story. All in all, a beyond mediocre movie, more like lame. 3/10 Bethany Cox

Beyond Loch Ness could have been such a great B movie, I mean like cult classic good, if only it didn't take itself so seriously! The acting was terrible, the CGI was laughable and the script was so wrong - all the key ingredients for a brill B movie, but alas - it was trying to be some rehash of Jaws or Jurassic Park when it should have been aiming for Lake Placid. Not a single joke in the whole film, and the only laughs it arises are the unintentional ones. And another thing, why is it called Beyond Loch Ness when its set in America? Loch Ness had some a small amount of screen time that it didn't really make much sense naming the film after Nessie!I could give it a proper review but I've already wasted 1.30hours watching the damn thing!

*Really awful movie. It has one saving grace. It's one of those movies that is so bad, so sloppy, so inaccurate, so incredibly and truly dreadful that it's actually fun to watch. I enjoy the odd stinker full of howlers, bad lines, improbable events and just plain terrible acting. Then of course this is one of these disguised Canadian films where American flags are planted in every other scene. We wouldn't want anybody to actually find out this is a Canadian movie. And when they're this bad, maybe that's a good thing. Gawd. Why don't we just get out of the movie business instead of continuing this demeaning tax subsidized pandering to Americans. Who knows, if we actually set a Canadian movie in Canada --- a radical notion, I know --- people might actually like it. The acting is appalling. The photography is mediocre. The story is absurd. And it carries cinematic licence too far to pass off the BC coast as Lake Superior. They're both beautiful but they don't resemble each other in any way. Warning. Do not watch this movie unless fortified by several stiff drinks. Mumble...grumble...growl..mutter...snort...

Beyond Loch Ness starts at Loch Ness, Scotland in 1976 where a scientific expedition are attacked & killed by the legendary Loch Ness monster, the only survivor is James Murphy (James Laird) the twelve year old son of one of the scientists who manages to hide. Jump to Lake Superior in the small American town of Ashburn during the Present Day where a now adult James Murphy (Brian Krause) a cryptozoologist turns up after a local man reports seeing a monster on the lake, James hires local fish bait shop owner Josh Reiley (Niall Matter) to take him out to explore the lake where he finds several huge subterranean caves. James quickly realises the Loch Ness monster has ended up in Lake Superior & has started eating the locals, out for revenge & to prevent more death James teams up with local Sheriff Karen Reiley (Carrie Genzel) to take the beast down once & for all & save the town!Also more commonly known under the title Loch Ness Terror which is what I saw it under this Canadian production was co-written & directed by Paul Ziller & I was pleasantly surprised by just how good this was, sure it's no masterpiece by any stretch of the imagination but it's decent enough & far better than the usual abysmal Sci-Fi Channel 'Creature Feature' originals that they love so much. The film has a good pace to it, it moves along briskly enough to keep one entertained although one has to say that it does start to get a little dull towards the end as overall there's really not much to it. Basically some guy & the clichéd local small town Sheriff hunt down some monster & that's really all there is too it, while watching Beyond Loch Ness it felt like a cheap rip-off of the marvellous Lake Placid (1999) & in that regard it comes across alright. Unfortunately the entertaining black humour of Lake Placid is absent & overall this takes itself a bit too seriously but as far as 'Craeture Features' go this impressed me & believe me I've seen loads of the things over the years.One notorious aspect of these Sci-Fi Channel 'Creature Features' are the awful CGI computer effects that look like they were done on a home PC, examples include Ogre (2008) & 100 Million BC (2008) which has truly some of the worst CGI monsters ever to grace the screen so I was very surprised to see the CGI in Beyond Loch Ness was as good as it was. Sure it can't compete with the likes of Jurassic Park (1993), Starship Troopers (1997) or King Kong (2005) but the effects actually hold up pretty well, the creature design is good, the animation is fine although the makers tend to just show shots of the creatures long neck & head rather than it's entire body & the CGI is also relatively detailed & textured. Again much, much better than the usual embarrassment the Sci-Fi Channel serve up. There's some reasonable gore too, from severed limbs to bitten off heads to decent amounts of blood splatter this is a lot redder than most Sci-Fi Channel offerings.Filmed in Vancouver in British Columbia in Canada although set in the US & Scotland. The Scottish accents are not the most convincing but overall the acting is fine, most of the cast are TV stars appearing in stuff like Stargate, Battlestar Galactica & Charmed.Beyond Loch Ness is much better than the usual Sci-Fi Channel 'Creature Feature' & taken on it's own it's alright if a little underdeveloped & runs out of steam at around the hour mark. Much, much better than I expected.
