Pretty descent B movie schlock. Script is a bit weak as expected but does a good job of keeping the pace moving. Creatures and gore sfx are pretty well done considering the budget and era. Not a bad watch at all.
This was a unexpected blast! It's short, it's gory, it stars many creatures from the Black Lagoon and it has the b-movie quality!
Humanoids from the Deep doesn't mess around, they don't explain a lot, the just want to show gore, tits, fist fights and the creatures from the Black Lagoon who want to mate with women to "evolve" their species.
The finals 20 minutes are damn bonkers. That DJ? THE BEST BIT! The Merry-Go-Round? I Laughed my ass off. A Decapitation? Always a win! Was that a Alien-rip off or tribute? WHO KNOWS!
Anyway, don't expect the world class film, but you will be entertained bu this Barbara Peeters directed flick out of the stall of Roger Corman. 80 minutes well spend!
This is a goofy sci-fi horror movies that would play like a fun creature feature if it weren’t for some triggering issues. It definitely pushes some buttons in the early days of 80’s horror. The first kill does something most horror films don’t do. And then why do they have to kill the dogs?! But the sci-fi horror elements are fun. The monsters are interesting and the film is gory. But there are quite a few triggering issues that happen with the film. And that places the entire film in a bad light. It would be a entertaining midnight monster movie if it didn’t have the triggering issues (racism, monster rape). Because the finale is a madcap bloody sequence at a carnival on the water.

Man, I forgot how much fun this on was. Just a goofy, campy thrill ride. Corman’s specialty.
