Peereddi I was totally surprised at how great this film.You could feel your paranoia rise as the film went on and as you gradually learned the details of the real situation.

KnotStronger This is a must-see and one of the best documentaries - and films - of this year.

Siflutter It's easily one of the freshest, sharpest and most enjoyable films of this year.

Brendon Jones It’s fine. It's literally the definition of a fine movie. You’ve seen it before, you know every beat and outcome before the characters even do. Only question is how much escapism you’re looking for.

ctomvelu1 Poorly made Lovecraftian-type monster movie about a legendary creature from hell accidentally released and seeking sacrificial victims. You see the monster for about four seconds, which was probably for the best. Filmed ion Greece, which did nothing for the movie. James Earl Jones and Jose Ferrer at least got a holiday out of it. Martin Kove arrives at a coastal village seeking his sister. Deborah Shelton plays the fetching nymphet, and a couple of other beauties spend a fair amount of time in skimpy bikinis. But there is nowhere enough nudity and very little gore or violence. Shelton has one nice scene near the end where she writhes in orgasmic delight, dressed in nothing but a wet shirt. Still, there's little to recommend this misfire.

g-young77 "Blood Tide" is a movie about people in Greece who talk, and talk, and talk, are occasionally attacked by a sea monster, and then talk some more. The pace was so mind-numbingly slow that I started doing multiplication tables in my head for some excitement.Then, after what seemed like 12 hours of talking and nighttime sequences that were too dark to tell what was happening, someone died and had money shoved in their mouth, and James Earl Jones was yelling at nuns, and I had no idea what was going on. I stuck it out to see what the monster looked like, but I blinked at just the wrong second and missed that too. This is not a "so-bad-it's-good" movie like "Plan 9", it's a "so-boring-you-may-end-up-in-a-coma" movie. Unless you're looking for a cure for insomnia, skip this one.

wes-connors "A legendary sea monster is awakened from centuries of sleep on a Greek island by an American archaeologist (James Earl Jones). An island elder (Jose Ferrer) is aware of the legend of the beast, including its appetite for virgin sacrifices," according to the DVD sleeve's synopsis. Elderly Lila Kedrova (as Anna), a knowing nun, is also aware of the monstrous danger. Hopefully, the monster isn't averse to snacking on a few tasty non-virgin women as well, because there are a few to wet one's appetite. In fact, the main "Blood Tide" attraction is watching three very arousing thirty-something women. First, rise to attention for beautiful blonde model Mary-Louise Weller (as Sherry Grice), newlywed wife to handsome shirtless hero Martin Kove (as Neil Grice). Next, salute bouncy brunette Deborah Shelton (as Madeline), who looks swell in either wet clothes or the wind. Then, make it a third thumb up for busty blonde Lydia Cornell (as Barbara). Nobody shows too much skin, but everyone looks good.*** Blood Tide (9/82) Richard Jefferies ~ Martin Kove, James Earl Jones, Deborah Shelton, Mary Louise Weller

Syl James Earl Jones is poorly used in this terrible horror film that looks like from the seventies and not the eighties. Lila Kedrova and Jose Ferrer are also misused. The story is crazy about a Loch-Ness type of monster who is beneath a Greek island. The island has secrets but there are not that worthy to know about the sacrifices of virgins to the monster for whatever reason and I didn't care. The film is a poor thriller with a good cast including Lydia Cornell, Mary Weller, and Martin Cove. It starts off with a search for sister Madeline in Greece where she takes up with Jones' character for whatever reason. Her brother played by Cove comes with his newlywed wife searching for her and discover the mystery of the island. The whole plot is far-fetched and not worth knowing. The special effects are amateurish at best. It's a forgettable film in all respects.
