"We all see what we want to see. Coffey looks and he sees Russians. He sees hate and fear. You have to look with better eyes than that." – Lindsey Brigman "This is not a black and white world! You can't afford to see it in black and white!" – Bud Brigman User Reviews (Community Archive Snapshot) Reviewer: SciFiHistorian Date: June 14, 2022 Rating: 5/5 Stars "A masterclass in tension. While everyone talks about the water tentacle, the real horror is the Michael Biehn subplot. It’s a perfect film about the paranoia of the Cold War. The Special Edition is a must-watch for the tidal wave sequence alone." Reviewer: DeepDive88 Date: January 3, 2021 Rating: 4/5 Stars "Ed Harris gives a career-best performance, even if he almost drowned doing it. The pacing drags a bit in the middle, but the final descent to the bottom of the abyss is pure cinema magic. The soundtrack by Alan Silvestri is haunting."
