    Movie recommendation for tonight, Leviathan Peter Weller stars in this B-movie creature feature, it's sorta like The Thing but instead of the arctic it's set aboard a deep sea mining rig and the monster is particularly fishy. Great supporting cast including Ernie Hudson, Daniel Stern, & Amanda Pays

    An all-timer in the "nighttime looks like nighttime" Circle of Excellence. Strong running non-subtext about addiction/alcoholism and domestic violence/child abuse. Funny but always in service of the scares. I liked AR-15 Leviathan. Gladys is an all-timer movie monster. Strong ending. RIDICULOUS cast

    Today is the 39th anniversary of 1989's deep sea horror movie Leviathan! One of Stan Winston's unsung great monster designs, it featured an oceanic mutant combining The Thing with Alien. The movie is fun, but it always bothered me how little we get to see of this beautiful beastie!

    I was developing an updated comic adaptation of the 1989 underwater monster movie, Leviathan. And there was one guy who, after all script & concept changes were approved, asked "What if this took place in space! Like Aliens!" If you are aware of Leviathan, you KNOW why that was absolutely absurd.

I like the TV series a lot (watched first, before reading the books), I really liked "Leviathan Wakes" and "The Butcher of Anderson Station", but the second and third volumes were meh. The second one is too similar to the first one and the third one, I don't know, just didn't click. "Cibola Burn" is good, finally the themes have changed, the setting has changed (Ilus) and there are new mysteries to uncover (well, I watched the TV series, so…

    I was going to say that I doubt they would because of how far out they've gone from ATLA but then I remembered there was a recent movie with the gaang so it's possible, if they've been watching it. They made the Leviathan Grimm because they'd been watching Godzilla at the time and the dumb Ghira/Fennec (or was it Corsac?) punch scene was taken from HeroAca.

    The same question could be asked of several Cannes films from the last 15 years or so, such as 2014’s Leviathan. Clearly Russia wouldn’t be submitting it, so maybe the jury would’ve felt like they needed to give it the Palme instead of Best Screenplay. Same with basically any Iranian film. (4/)

    Not really. I just remember it being really oppressive, and really tough to sit through. The reason I say I didn't finish it, is because I don't have anything on Letterboxd for it and I write something for every film I finish! I should probably give it another go. I think Leviathan is my favourite.
