Quote

All in all, good for that rainy Saturday afternoon at the mall with few ill-effects for the little ones, and good Friday night DVD food-fight entertainment when the cats are away. After that, this one will go back beneath the earth from whence it came. — Monsters and Critics

With a trailer cut as good as Matthew Leutwyler's latest film, you would think there’d be something there, especially at the insanely large budget used to create this catastrophe. UNEARTHED is a disappointment on all levels from the look to the creature FX to the acting and the screenplay. Do I hear the Sci-Fi Channel calling? — Bloody Disgusting.com
