Movies should draw on real life, but people often simply draw on other movies they have already seen, and this is the case here. In a low budget movie, you can't outspend Hollywood, so maybe have a superior concept, better writing, or unique cinematography, what do you think? Maybe next time.

Something about that the NSA has been hacked and there is only one expert who can save the whole government from crashing down. Essentially it's Red Hat meets an overdrawn bank account.

This poorly shot movie is based on an Islamic terrorist plot that probable comes from a book of movie clichés. I think I have already written too much.

Yes, "Tentacle 8" is perfectly titled. As I watched I felt drawn into the story and then bound increasingly tightly in it. If I didn't seek the thrill of not knowing and of danger, I wouldn't have liked this story's powerful hold! It's a spellbinding trap for those who love to be daring. I could sense how torn between hope and despair Ray was. In fact, I felt that right along with him because of Brett Rickaby's exquisite connection with his character. It was tough to watch the ruthless treatment of him and the not-knowing that kept him in a turmoil of doubt, especially because I could sense the vulnerability of his heart. Amy Motta maintained that keen edge through the story also as Tabitha. All characters were fascinating, as were the writhing arms of changing appearances in this very well-done film.

Great story, a little slow at times. However good acting and the story content was captivating. It seems very believable.

I was losing interest at one point, but the story reached out and grabbed me back in.

If you like spy stories, and you like to speculate at what goes on in the I.C. (intelligence community) then this movie is for you.

The main character- good. Supporting characters- good.

Story-Good

My rating is of an 8. Yes I know that is high, however based on being an independent movie and the material being covered with strong characters, I believe this is a fair rating for the ambition put into it.
