The Devil Below

Or, to put it more accurately, Devil, get thee behind me. This movie takes all the superficial tropes of a “science” team with the tough leader of the expedition and does absolutely nothing with them. There is no character development (a couple of “this is why I am the way I am” reveals—nothing unexpected), a ludicrous plot that is completely predictable, and hey, the black guy doesn’t die first, he dies second (only he doesn’t actually die then, he dies later…yeah, it’s a little weird). Just know that everybody dies except the expedition leader, and you’ve got it.

I will say, though, that this is the first movie I have seen an alien creature as a gondolier, but that’s not worth watching the movie over.

This is one of those, “I watched this so you don’t have to” movies.
