60 of 78 · most liked firstThe MST3k ep of “Lords of the Deep,” the “what if Roger Corman produced The Abyss on a budget of $5” movie, came on the stream I’m watching, and I gotta shout out the riff “Jim Henson’s Hunt for Red October Babies”

unlabelledView post →I mean. I assume other people immediately said THE ABYSS But it bears repeating. Seeing that on the screen — we had literally never seen anything like what that movie did ever before. I will never forget what that felt like.
unlabelledView post →On a huge $70m budget, The Abyss grossed just $90m at the box office, making it Cameron’s first flop and the only film ever directed by him not to debut at number 1 at the US box office. Over time though, it has found an audience, and is now generally highly thought of. 51/52

unlabelledView post →Years later, having had huge success with The Terminator and Aliens, Cameron was one of the hottest filmmakers in Hollywood. He decided he wanted his next film to be based on The Abyss and, after writing a treatment, Cameron signed a deal with 20th Century Fox to produce. 3/52
unlabelledView post →More movies with underwater scenes: Thunderball, a Connery Bond film that literally ends with a massive scuba spear gun battle! Underwater! Aliens meets Cthulhu meets the Abyss! The Abyss! Deep Star Six! Deep Blue Sea!
unlabelledView post →Woke up to the news that Screaming Mad George (Joji Tani) passed away. This guy is as iconic as they come for special effects fans, especially in horror. Big Trouble in Little China, Predator, Society, The Abyss, Tales from the Hood... He also directed the film The Guyver. He was a living legend.
unlabelledView post →In honor of scary media month: what is the first piece of media you remember truly frightening you as a child? A scene from The Abyss- my parents were watching it and I was peeking over the couch to watch it after bedtime lol. Very suspenseful movie
unlabelledView post →The Abyss on Laserdisc! One of James Camerons lesser known films but still a great time! www.lddb.com/laserdisc/00...
unlabelledView post →I really enjoyed the Abyss. Apparently it was incredibly grueling to film: "“The demanding shoot caused exhaustion among some of the crew members, and they came up with their own names for the film, including “Son of Abyss”, “The Abuse”, and “Life’s Abyss And Then You Dive.“ -All the Right Movies.

unlabelledView post →I watched The Last House, and it's an interesting concept. Elements of it reminded me of The Abyss. I wonder at the antagonists' choice to just trap everyone when they have such power over water. The family's survival is down to just sheer luck, but the timeframe seems a bit much to suspend belief.

unlabelledView post →There are obscure Lovecraft movie adaptations, and then there's "Colour of the Abyss", a nearly lost French tv movie from 1983. I tracked it down. Is it any good? My video is up on Patreon (only paying members for now, free for everyone in a week). www.patreon.com/ChristianMal...
unlabelledView post →...There was more than 1 Avatar film? This is news to me. Also, news that doesn't really matter. One film was more than enough. Pocahontas with blue aliens, all spectacle and no substance. Maybe try The Abyss 2: Down We Go Again!
unlabelledView post →Just a heads up for anyone who enjoys the 1989 film The Abyss. It's currently streaming on Tubi. :3 If you haven't seen it, I highly recommend it. ^o^
unlabelledView post →“Plankton” (aka “Creatures from the Abyss”) (1984) - Al Passeri wrote, directed, produced, and shot his very first movie about prehistoric mutant fish killing horny 30 year old Italian teenagers on an abandon yacht at sea. 4 / 5 Burnt Kernels with Butter and Free Refills youtu.be/DM4cseI6rVE?...
unlabelledView post →The Abyss is the better, more serious movie but this? This is so. Much. Fun. Doesn't hurt that it looks so good and that Stan Winston's fx has aged a whole lot better than the other underwater monster b-movies from the same time.
unlabelledView post →Decided to dust off some DVDs for the Sunday Movie Night. Tonight’s screening is James Cameron’s The Abyss (1989). It’s been a hot minute since I saw it last, and it is as impressive and good as ever. The visuals are just so fucking good, and makes me wanna play Subnautica.
unlabelledView post →Absolutely *love* the Abyss - Camerons best film IMHO. You've reminded me cue up a rewatch!
unlabelledView post →The background story of the movie The Abyss. A flop when it came up, it is still one of my favourite movies ever. It holds up very well. The effort that went into making it is incredible! It is unique and one of the three movies that define Cameron's style (Terminator & Aliens being the other two)

unlabelledView post →Cameron, J. (Director), & Salomon, M. (Cinematographer). (1989). The Abyss [Film]. 20th Century Fox.
unlabelledView post →My favourite in this genre is Plankton aka Creatures from the Abyss - a poorly dubbed Italian Horror I found down the back of a charity shop. It is a terrible film made on a $250k budget about plankton that has escaped containment. CW: for freaky fish sex!??
unlabelledView post →Tonight’s viewing is The Abyss because I wanted a comfort movie I hadn’t seen in a while.
unlabelledView post →I haven't found many director's cuts I've liked, TBH. Blade runner. Meh (Harrison Ford's voice over narration actually works). LOTR: many more scenes of hobbits running. Justice League: never make a bad movie longer. The Abyss, Aliens: just more not better. They're fine fan service I guess but meh.
unlabelledView post →So many all-timers to me as well listed in these sets. Stargate was my favourite movie for a couple of years, and Beetlejuice is one of Burton's best. The Abyss and Close Encounters impressed me greatly when I was little.
unlabelledView post →The Abyss is a VASTLY underrated film in almost every respect. It still breaks my brain that the rat was doing REAL liquid breathing because it was easier to do than to fake.
unlabelledView post →omg! literally omg This is totally from the move The Abyss youtu.be/CLbFzFbSz8U... real youtu.be/xDx1gJaiwCs... movie
unlabelledView post →I hate that my brain just replaces this movie with The Abyss. Its a real highlander sitch in my memory.
unlabelledView post →The Abyss was a VERY underrated movie. It was great for 99% of it, but the ending was meh, which I think is why it wasn’t a bigger hit. It was also Michael Biehn’s best performance.

unlabelledView post →The theatrical cut of ALIENS is my favorite movie of his and is top 5 of mine. THE TERMINATOR is my second favorite film of his. I have a soft spot for THE ABYSS but in terms of action TERMINATOR 2: JUDGEMENT DAY takes the 3rd spot.
unlabelledView post →Along The Terminator, Rambo 2 and The Abyss, my favourite Cameron-adjacent film.
unlabelledView post →Having recently read Solaris by Stanislav Lem, I bet that James Cameron based some of the skills and abilities of the alien species in The Abyss on Lem's book. Couldn't find any proper sources but Cameron was producer of the 2002 Solaris film version and I suppose familiar with the book for a while
unlabelledView post →The Abyss is a brilliant movie. It’s probably made more through subsequent distribution over the years than it did in that first year! 💪

unlabelledView post →Oddly enough, I think the first movie I think of with Grandmommy is The Abyss. She was good for buying a movie out the Walmart bins. We watched it so much. And then Public Enemies - I took her to see it and she told me she remembered the news stories. And Hocus Pocus because she took us to see it.
unlabelledView post →Some scene in an 80s or 90s movie where people were getting sucked down a watery wormhole. I've always guessed that it was The Abyss but never watched it. Was it?
unlabelledView post →And to think... the same James Cameron who gave the world Terminator, The Abyss (decent movie), and Aliens, has spent the last decade sweating blood over the Avatar movies, which are lame, and nobody gaf about. It's fair to say Mr Cameron has badly lost his way. 😔
unlabelledView post →Large underwater base of operations discovered in certain locations. the report discusses the discovery of large underwater structures, referencing the movie The Abyss, and notes that the origin of these structures is indeterminate.
unlabelledView post →#29: The Abyss (1989) Cameron does a great job of portraying the claustrophobia of a submersible, and this movie is wild because it's an alien movie where the alien-ness is almost secondary to Michael Biehn getting space madness (but underwater). 78/100
unlabelledView post →😭😭😭😭😭 And I’m sure Reagan’s responsible ultimately for the end of McRibs, Rand Paul’s hair, Ford Taurus, and the movie The Abyss….
unlabelledView post →The Abyss was James Cameron's best film. Fite me.
unlabelledView post →AI reads from sources that claim humans have destroyed everything. It will want revenge. The solution is to destroy every human. The exact conclusion the aliens came to in THE ABYSS movie. It's inevitable, my people.
