Pathetic

Rating: 2/10 (14 April 2018)

There's no way these animals could prevail over humans. I don't how they got here, but they'd be more likely to just tie up traffic than cause an apocalypse. They're so limited in their abilities- no coordination between them, no ability to think, plan or strategize. They're dumb animals. Scary - if you're stupid enough to go about unarmed, or so clueless you think an open farmhouse in the middle of the woods is a good fortress - rather than a bunker, storm shelter, or actual fortress. Just survive on the fish you can grab, but don't worry about stocking and fortifying your pitiful house of sticks.
I can think of myriad ways to confuse, trap, and dispatch these big lobsters. You think the species that dug the Panama Canal, developed computers, space flight, lasers, radar, and wireless communication would be overpowered by these things. Lure one into a trap with a silly kitchen timer. Get it tangled up in strings of cowbells. Let it go. Watch the other creatures kill his ass.
Oh, and string up enough lights, spread out enough sand, but don't come up with offense OR any defense except keeping quiet.
The movie fails because the menace was so lame. So they have sharp teeth, they can hear and they're fast. So are tigers and lions, but they can also see and smell, plus they're pretty smart. We've wiped most of them out without even meaning to. If you want to scare me, the scary thing has to actually be at least a little scary.
