Sea Monster Movies

Sea-ing how this month's challenge revolves around them, what are some of your recommendations? It didn't take me long to realize that I don't know many movies that fit this criteria, but I'm sure we can figure out a few. Include lake monster movies too, because those count.


My personal favorite is Humanoids from the Deep (1980), which is short and gives you plenty of kills. If you can count kills that weren't from the monsters, you'd have even more deaths. This movie is balls to the wall.

I suppose a big one is Creature from the Black Lagoon (1954) and its two sequels. He was the last of the classic Universal monsters. My personal favorite is the second movie.

I recently watched Leviathan (1989), which was like an underwater version of The Thing. If you want some garbage movies, there's Devil Fish (1984), Creatures from the Abyss (1994), and Creature from the Haunted Sea (1961).


There are literally a million shark movies and an ass-load of alligator/crocodile movies, if those count. They're real creatures, so I'm not sure if they count as "monsters". Do they need to be mutated or genetically modified? Do the piranha movies count, since the remake marks them as prehistoric savages?

What say you? Add to the list.
