MCT:August 21, 2008It was actually disturbing how bad this film was. It wasn't even bad in a funny way and at times I wondered if the filmmakers intended certain scenes to be. Either way, they need professional help. I was most disturbed by the fact the beautiful and talented Ms. Watts was in this. Boy did the next object of King Kong's obsession come a long way from this pile of stool! I couldn't believe she was in this wretched mess but even in such grotesque toxic waste she shined through. I couldn't make any sense out of much of anything in this film. Another part that disturbed me was the reference to Bin Laden and the eerie 9/11-like feel during the President's speech. Was 9/11 the reason this cinematic fiasco went straight to video or was it maybe Ms. Watts' agent who made sure it was kept pretty hush hush. Of course now Ms. Watts is about to appear in King Kong, the movie pops up again on cable. This travesty deserves to get "THE SHAFT" and flushed "DOWN" the toilet!

MCT:July 8, 2008Don't let the cast of (fiarly well known) character actors and (future) big name stars, fool you.
This film is a complete insult from beginning to end. Everything from the ridiculous premis, bad writing, sub-par acting to the use of every cheesy character profile and trite plot "twist" ever seen on film..is a little insulting.
Naomi Watts and Ron Perlman should thank their lucky stars that this didn't end up being the "career breaker" that it should have been.
I almost want people to see it so they will know JUST how bad it really is! I guess it's human nature? Kind of like when you taste something bad and say to your friend "OH!....taste this...it's horrible! -

MCT:April 30, 2008Really good movie. Kinda freaky too. Thought it looked so funny when the guy flew out of the elevator. Elevator working on actual parts of a body. Crazy stuff right there.

Monster was disappointing. It was all electrical wires covered in what looked like pink bubblegum. The rest of the movie was fine.

Sequel/remake of "the lift". Not bad, although the reviews on the web are merciless. Sadly remembered for the connection to the events of 9/11

Just watched this. Naomi Watts actually didnt do too bad for a B movie flick and shows some of the stuff that will eventually land her the bigger roles later. A fun horror flick if such a thing exists. Not great not horrid. Just there.

Wow! Insensitive, racist, terrible sound, AND a complete lack of "special" in the effects? Thanks for sucking, movie!

one of the worst fucking films ive ever seen.
ok, so heres the plot,...an elevator comes to life, because someone shoved some dolphin blubber in it. honest to god, thats what its about.
but, i will admit, there was one scene that i thought was really cool. the scene where the pregnant women have the babys inside the lift, then when they open the door, the cut to a scene where theyre frying eggs, i couldnt stop laughing. thats the only reason why im givin it one star.
i really would like to thank david lynch for giving naomi watts some proper work. other she would be stuck do shit like this, and other horror sequels (shaking head thinking of her performance in that lame ass children of the corn film)
