I happened to stumble upon the 2023 movie "The Loch Ness Horror" by random luck here in 2023. And with it being a movie that I hadn't already seen, much less even heard about, of course I opted to sit down and watch it. I mean, this was a movie about the Loch Ness creature, after all.
Needless to say that I didn't venture into this with a whole lot of high expectations or grand hopes from writer and director Tyler-James. But still, I opted to watch the movie with an open mind and give the writer and director the benefit of the doubt.
The storyline in "The Loch Ness Horror" was pretty generic for a movie such as this. If you have watched any other type of movie with an aquatic monstrous creature of any sort, then you know what you are in for when you sit down to watch this movie. So writer Tyler-James didn't deliver anything particularly impressive with the script and storyline here.
I found out that there is actually a movie from 1982 also titled "The Loch Ness Horror". But as I haven't seen that one, I have no idea whether or not this 2023 movie from writer and director Tyler-James is a remake of that older movie or not.
The acting performances in "The Loch Ness Horror" were fair enough. It was an all unfamiliar cast ensemble to me, and that is something I actually enjoy when I sit down to watch a movie. However, there weren't any impressive or outstanding performances to write home about, though.
The CGI effects in the movie were fair enough. It wasn't top of the line impressive CGI effects, but for a movie such as "The Loch Ness Horror" turned out to be, then I will say that the effects were actually adequate enough.
Watchable for what it was, the 2023 movie "The Loch Ness Horror" wasn't exactly impressive or outstanding. It is not a movie that warrants more than just a single viewing. Nor is it a movie that I would recommend creature feature fans to rush out and get to watch.
My rating of "The Loch Ness Horror", from writer and director Tyler-James, lands on a generous four out of ten stars.
