Humanity has a love hate relationship with the Ocean. As it has plagued us and helped us all our existence, it commands a deep respect if you wish to survive. One of the reasons this respect must exists, is simply for the animals that live within. What were originally thought to be tales of monsters, have actually turned out to have a bit of truth to them. As a cruise ship sets off it would be besieged by one of the creatures of old. But how has this animal evaded detection for so long? Lets discuss that in todays episode

[@sharondornhoff7563]

Also, the boxes in there with Trillian are visibly full of fresh fruit, not frozen food. It's a fridge, not a freezer, so probably not cold enough to kill her.

[@JCTheSniper15]

​@@sharondornhoff7563how long you think you'd make it in a fridge?

[@Courtney-Jai]

Actually, fridges and freezers need a drainage point, so it's not completely air-tight this is required for when they hit defrost cycles to drain away excess water Otherwise, you would just have a giant block of ice form.

[@vali6717]

​@@JCTheSniper15 I used to work at a restaurant in a job that had me spend a lot of time in both the refregerator and cooler. From my experience while chilly comercial grade fridge rooms are not likely to make you freeze to death, just be rather uncomfortable as commercial fridges run between 40F and 45F for food safety reasons. The time I was locked in the freezer accidentally is another matter almost immediately, never mind the time it took to get someone to notice I had been locked inside. One is like being outside without a jacket in the low 40s, the other is 'I am going to die' reptile brain activating in short order.

[@JCTheSniper15]

@vali6717 I've also worked in kitchen service. You certainly wouldn't die right away in a fridge, but if you weren't wearing some clothing you could get hypothermia pretty quick.

[@mikeoas]

As much as her being locked in the fridge was a death Sentence, it ended up saving trillian. The octalus hunted by sensing movement. She was unconscious in a sealed and soundproofed environment. My only thought on this film, which I love as does my husband is this. Clearly it. Started grabbing passengers when they ran out towards the lifeboats. Why didn’t more passengers hide up in the higher decks of the ship. Some could have hidden in storerooms or areas where there were lots of background noise. I would have hidden with my husband in a linen store. We have been on a cruise before. No pipes or toilets and linen could be used to insulate the room so as long as your quiet there wouldn’t be any movement.

[@paranoyd70]

I really liked this movie, which sadly didn't get the recognition it deserves. Another movie that doesn't get the recognition I feel it deserves, also from the 90's, is the movie, "Virus", which was adapted from the comic by the same name, has a good cast including Alec Baldwin & Jamie Lee Curtis, also takes place on a big ship in the open sea, and also features monsters. The effects are mostly physical with some stop motion puppetry, as this was made in early 90 which hadn't yet perfected the art of CGI, but I personally appreciate practical affects. Some people hated it but I loved it.

[@Black_Soul_King]

Only a few good movie lovers remember "Virus"! You can't beat that plot. I remember "Leviathan" which cast Ernie Hudson from "Ghostbusters", and Hector Elizondo from "Beverly Hills Cop 3". These kinds of 90's horror movies had incredible storylines, and characters. This is why these movies can be rewatched over and over and enjoyed the same way as when we enjoyed them in the 90's. Deep Star Six was a good one as well but not like "Deep Rising" and "Leviathan". These movies got it all going for them. Great storylines, a talented cast, a mix of horror and comedic scenes and perfect special affects of that time. I must add "Relic" was another good one.

[@jamesabernethy7896]

This may not have been a blockbuster at the time but it was a really fun movie. I've always said about your videos that I love how you add real-world biology to creatures of all kinds, whether it was silly to begin with or something that had thought put into it, you always add depth to movies. Your videos are visually appealing with fun images but also ones that explain the science. Your narration is also energetic and funny as hell.

Thank you for finally explaining what the captain was talking about when he was trying to describe the monster. I could never make out what he was saying.

[@PVmovimaker26]

Watched this movie on TV when I was a kid. Scared the hell out of me. Especially the scene where the captain gets eaten. Fun fact about the guns used, it’s a fusion of a mini-gun and a Calico pistol. I absolutely love Calicos. Their design is very “unique”. If you showed one to a random person they’d probably immediately think it’s a toy laser gun. Their .22 pistol has a 100 round capacity drum magazine. You can make the argument that while the gun itself cannot have a feasible 1000 round mag, it is not difficult at all for one person carry 1000 rounds of ammunition.

[@kevinkerwin4118]

Roanoke, me boi. I, too, was deeply saddened when the lady repairing the boar was instantly dragged off and gone. It's a part of film that always sat wrong with me throughout the ywars.

Crazy I’ve been really hoping you’d do this since I found the page, scrolled through the entire feed and was surprised when you didn’t do it yet. this is one I’ve been waiting for ^-^

[@lyndonwellington1269]

Oh man this is one of my favorite 90s horror movies, so glad your doing a video on that weird ass Octo monster

[@jaxs3329]

Love your videos ❤ putting science to the fantasy and horror!

[@arbitratorkit3626]

Holy crap, the first fifteen seconds had my sides in orbit from laughter. I can relate to that feeling exactly, Roanoke

[@satouchiha1825]

I'm so excited you're covering this movie I love it.

[@BigBrainLynx]

Wait why doesn't this have any views? 😭

4:06 thanks for thein formation Roanoke! cant wait for the next vid

[@666thestormdragon]

ive been trying to remember this movie, thank you

[@Cloudywithachanceofcaulk]

I live thousands of miles away from the ocean and I still fear the inky crushing depths.

[@CantankerousDave]

Same. As Calvin put it, “Unimaginable horrors are all too easy to imagine.”

[@richardjohnson8991]

I saw this movie as a kid and could not for the life of me remember what it was called until I saw the monster on screen. Thanks Roanoke, core memories unlocked

[@newtonmarques1271]

my favorite piece of trivia about this movie is that it was supposed to be a king kong prequel

[@Dxrth_Rxse]

I've been watching Roanoke in 4 years now and he never failed to amaze me!

[@Poppy_Loren]

Octopus has 5 official plural terms... It depends on where you are speaking English! Octopus, octopuses, octopi, octopods, and octopodes. Octopus is just easiest for everyone to get and not fight over, lol. This reason alone gives these cephalopods a huge ups in my mind!

[@themurrrr]

Octopus is also plural? …. source? I genuinely want to know the source.

[@DeniseDutton]

Cephalopods rule! I used to volunteer at the Invert House of the National Zoo (RIP Invert House...) And I adore cephalopods! They absolutely recognize people who they frequently see, and if they don't trust you? They will definitely mess with you. And it's beautiful to see. 🤣

[@Poppy_Loren]

@@themurrrr from what I was taught, octopus is only a proper plural when there is an amount... Ex. There are a lot of octopus in there!

[@Halden.]

3:30 HA! Oh boy that one got me, I’ll be honest man, I needed a good laugh today. Thanks a ton.

[@scorpioriddick]

Oldies but goodies. Also our Papa Roanoke ABSOLUTELY KILLED (pun intended and unintended) IT with the puns in this video!!! Hope you're doing well giga chad! Never stop never disappointing us!!!

[@Ozz465]

Once again its a movie I love so much ive lost track how many times its been . Love it.

[@mortagon1451]

While the effects are a bit dated, this movie is a ton of fun and could fit perfectly into the monsterverse. A pity it never go a sequel.

[@InTheDarkWood]

Always loved this movie, same guy who did the mummy with Brendan Fraser, joey was awesome xD, still got my VHS

[@Zenoandturtle]

Being a movie monsters fan I have no idea how such a gem escaped me. I’ts been added to my must watch list for sure. Thanks for the review.

[@paulawalls3329]

One of my fav movies. Yes im old. Plus a treat williams fan. The peanut scene cracks me up. Probably not supposed to be but i love it 😊

[@SpartanFlashSentry]

One of my favorite monster flics from the late 90s. Great video as always Roanoke, and as terrifying as the Octolus is, I am once again reminded of the even more horrifying "Nervous System Man" residing in my meatsuit!

[@SpartanFlashSentry]

-Oh also if you imagine that the end of this movie is the beginning of "Tremors: Shrieker Island" it becomes much more fun!

[@Black_Soul_King]

@@SpartanFlashSentry Treat Williams and Michael Gross characters in one film would have been a historical match in cinema.

[@ifti1311]

9:10...Linkin Park's "Numb"...Great track

[@warpendragn8824]

This movie horrified me as a kid, and I spent ten years trying to find a copy of it to rewatch over and over as an adult

[@iamafuckingfailure]

if i remember correctly, i read somewhere that the ending was supposed to hint at a king kong reboot that was never made, dont know how true is that, but certainly possible

[@dragondarcy8943]

0:59 Can't wait until until they find Cthulhu

[@avarion9538]

If he is slimy, and one of them is french, he will eat Cthulhu 🥰

[@Magick1an]

Any day where Roanoke uploads is a good day. Angler Fish joke? Check. Great commentary? Check.

[@ThatguyPanda86]

I spent 8 years in the 82nd 1st/504th and a number of years with Blackwater, Triple Canopy and then Dynacorp. Needless to say you will get narcissistic egotistical cavemen in any given profession, that being said on all of the teams I was operational with we didn’t do anything as remarkable as the PMC’s in this movie (who have the worst kit, TTP’s, communication and movement skills, etc I’ve ever seen). Great channel by the way man! It’s become my go to for its unique content that’s well written and hilarious at times! Forgot to add, the Calico uses a 9mm helical magazine that works here and there in my very limited quantifiable experience.

[@KaizaThaDon]

This is a nice underwater horror classic of mine for sure. Not too many movies back then in the 90s-2000s were that good sci-fi horror wise but this took the cake for me honestly along with deep blue sea.

[@Tendon-Cobar-2347]

What we need right now is a biology vid of the Arachnids of Helldivers

[@ItsYaBoiV]

Deep sea horror is one of my favorite genres. You should cover Deepstar Six! I'd love to hear you explain the sea bugs! Or Leviathan! They're corny, but the monsters are cool!

[@Psilocybin77]

That scene with the guy from Police Academy 5 being pulled up, half eaten in his submersible suit, still makes me shudder.

[@KillerChrono666]

Or Deep Shock or Deep Freeze(I think that was the movies name). There's also a few Deep Sea Monster movies involving oil rigs that I'm blanking on the name of.

[@NavySharkz]

I love this movie! Great cast, Famke Jansen looked angelic, and the CGI is great for a low budget.

[@discojelly]

One of my favorite late 90s/early 2000s monster films! It deserved a part 2.. that is all!
