The Age of Commercialism

One of my all time favorites.

The film creates a perfect balance between action and depth of basic needs, in the midst of an infertile atmosphere.

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

The monsters look like rubber toys, the mother monster looked like I don't know what, and nothing like her babies. The acting was sub standard. There was obvious reference's to Alien, and other much better movies. The premise for the movie was good but it failed when turned into a film. Finding a preserved million's year old insect/monster/alien is a old plot line but it could have been turned into a good movies but this was not it. I am a fan of horror films but this was more of a comedy, the death scenes were so so bad, the "attacks" were almost so bad you wanted to laugh. I am really wondering what a better budget/director could have done with this movie?

Awful film about an Antarctic (hang on...) research team (THAT sounds familiar) who have discovered a strange lifeform frozen in the ice (you guessed it). Said lifeform (a big flesh-eating bug) goes on the rampage. Terrible acting, trite script and poor ("poor" as in: "you will laugh with your friends and make fun of the film-makers who poisoned the world with this trash") special effects. It even goes as far as using unused footage from The Thing (shots of the camp from outside, and **PLOT SPOILER (not that you'll care)** when the camp blows up at the end PLOT Spoiler END (aren't you glad I warned you?)**)! Save your money and see The Thing instead, or perhaps hire a prostitute from your local escort agency - that's what the film-makers should have done. Or at least given the money spent on "Deep Freeze" to a script that deserved it.

I am not surprised that there are no goofs for this film as the whole film is a goof. There is no perceptible plot, the FX - rubber "trilobites" (were they carnivorous?) are laughable and the clichés - if you smoke you're first to go, if you have pre-marital sex you're next - are ridiculous. We know who will live and who will die within the first 20 mins and we don't give a monkey's as to who survives. Plan 9 from Outer Space seems like Ridley Scott compared with this heap of hokum. Avoid all films that have Deep at the beginning - Deep Impact, Deep Rising and Deep Freeze are all naff.

SPOILERS AHEAD - but only so you don't have to suffer this awful monster movie.Group of scientists, students etc.. travel to reserch lab in the Antartic & get attacked by a rather funny looking monster which resembles a big beetle. That's it.Didn't expect much from this J C Buechler directed movie but at least the monster fx should have been good, they aren't. It's goreless too, they couldn't even get the 'Alien' style chestbuster scene right.One of the few movies I've watched that required extended use of the fast forward buttom - during the attack scenes(!)Absolutely no redeeming values what so ever.The UK dvd contains the film &...wait for it, a pathetic photo gallery.
