Watch Beneath Loch Ness For Free

Sadly Over-hyped

Fresh and Exciting

Fantastic!

The acting in this movie is really good.

Beneath Loch Ness is directed by Chuck Comisky and Comisky co-writes the screenplay with Shane Bitterling and Justin Stanley. It stars Patrick Bergin, Lysette Anthony, Brian Wimmer, Lysa Apostle, Vernon Wells, David Andriole and Chris Taaffe. Music is by Richard John Baker and cinematography by Philipp H. Timme.An underwater quake has apparently awoken the famous creature...It makes the depths churn like a boiling caldron and stirs up the sea... Nothing on earth is its equal - a creature without fear - - Job 41:31Pic starts with that passage from the bible, oh so much promise...As reviews and internet ratings suggest, this is pretty bad fare. As someone who positively loves creaky creature features, even I found myself a little insulted by how poor the execution of this film is. No problem with the familiarity of plotting, there are reams and rafts of of sci-fi schlockers out there that have cribbed from the standard "group on a mission to locate monster and things go bad" formula, and there will be more. It's just that it's all so very dull, it lacks excitement and it takes an age before it gets going, and sadly the big finale isn't at all worth the wait. There's unintentional fun on offer, such as Bergin (what happened to this once promising actor?) donning Braveheart war paint to go off and fight Nessie, while the cinematography is woeful, the poor colour filters and foggy contrasts are a disgrace to some amazing locales used for the shoot.Still, at least for me Lysette Anthony is still sexual white chocolate, and for that I rate a generous 3/10

Released in 2001, "Beneath Loch Ness" chronicles events at the popular loch in Scotland as a team of researchers try to find the infamous "monster." The team is played by Brian Wimmer, Lysa Apostle, David Andriole, Chris Taaffe and Lysette Anthony. Their work is complicated by the presence of local teams playing a Nessie stunt. Patrick Bergin is on hand as a vengeful Scottish fisherman. While not as polished and weighty as 1996's "Loch Ness" with Ted Danson, "Beneath Loch Ness" is better than 2008's "Beyond Loch Ness" (aka "Loch Ness Terror"). Despite the obvious budget limitations, I'm giving it a mild 'thumbs up' because the cast and story drew me into the world of the characters. Plus there's an interesting twist revealed in the third act. In other words, this isn't just another movie about encountering Nessie, although Nessie's in it. Lacking the funds for quality F/X, the filmmakers make the right decision to hold off showing the creature till the very end, where the CGI is cartoony but serviceable for a low-budget flick from 2001. After just viewing the laughably bad "Mega Piranha," I was ready for the worst, but "Beneath Loch Ness" surprised me as a respectable nature-runs-amok flick. It's far from great, but it's not bad either. Despite the lack of funds, the filmmakers took the project seriously and it shows. Critics nitpick the Scottish accents and stereotypes, but who cares about that? Besides, stereotypes exist because there's SOME truth them. The film runs 96 minutes and was shot in Scotland and Castaic Lake, Santa Clarita, California. I'm assuming that establishing shots were done in Scotland with the actual movie being shot at Castaic Lake, CA. If so, they chose a convincing stand-in for Loch Ness. Excellent job on this front. GRADE: B-

The legendary Loch Ness Monster terrorizes a lake in Scotland and Patrick Bergin comes out to kill it.Yes, we have a relatively low budget film about the Loch Ness Monster with no actors you have ever heard of and a crew you do not know, either. Was this filmed in Scotland? Maybe. But the Scots are seen as backwards bumpkins with a sheep fetish.This film takes the view that Nessie is a prehistoric dinosaur or similar creature. That is probably the most interesting view, even if not entirely plausible. But, hey, when your monster may not even be real in the first place, go all out.

Bad movies are always best when the director, writer or *somebody* connected to the production feels they have "something to say", or when the filmmakers believe they're making a better movie than they are. Failing that bad movies can be enjoyable by being either goofy and fun or outrageous and eccentric.This movie, unfortunately, is none of those things. Everyone involved seems to have had a pretty good idea that they were just punching a clock to fill an hour and a half on the sci-fi channel or something. The "best" part is the badly aged (and poorly done even for a decade ago) CGI, but there's not enough of that to salvage it. Don't waste your time on this turkey.
