mmm the poster artwork look alright while too bad the feature do not draw out the same excitement . demon of paradise isn not the complete pit and but for most part be quite an flatfooted cheapjack co american or philippine monster feature and which tread water for too long and then amusingly erupt in the unimaginative final quarter . philippine exploitation director or producer cirio h. santiago ( cover girl model and t. n. t. jackson and naked vengeance ) manage to keep you fascinate and but i do not know how . maybe it those cheap look explosion . yeah it could be . cause by no other than the creature . no really it plain stupidity . i do not know why they want to destroy it . i could have swear when it bob out of the water it like to wave ( not claw ) and ask to jump in so it can hug you to death . but wherever it be about and for some reason there dynamite and then explosion seem to follow . maybe the director be add those bang to wake up the viewer from the miserable dialogue exchange and mainly limp act . one scene involve a helicopter and the creature effort to get up close for a ride be embarrassingly shonky . no wonder why he go all out in the final twenty minute and but this creature could have be mistake for a machine since all of the punishment it encounter and still it doesn not bleed . where arnold schwarzenegger when you need him . but more than one grenade thrown at the same time will get you a result . boom . really there wasn not enough buzz . everything here be a cut and paste job with the story lazily mix jaw ( 1975 ) and creature from the black lagoon ( 1954 ) together . the prehistoric underwater monster ( form by some superstitious groundwork ) be a lousy look rubber suit and and the rest of the make up fx be quite tatty . performance come across rather drab and but laura bank and frederick bailey and especially leslie scarborough kick up plenty of spruce . the music score be painful . pointless trite and but watchable .
