- 63Movie NationRoger MooreMovie NationRoger MooreFor a dumb genre pic, What Lies Below is as goofy and fun as it is wet and…weird. Don’t spoiler alert your friends, let the ogles and giggles surprise them as much as it will you.
- 60Screen RantJack WilhelmiScreen RantJack WilhelmiWhat Lies Below offers a twist on two underrated sub-genres, but its identity crisis causes this aquatic horror creature feature to sink, not swim.

- 20The GuardianCath ClarkeThe GuardianCath ClarkeThe denouement when it comes is meant to be shriek of pure sci-fi horror; but really, you’d find better entertainment – and more energetic acting – watching a fish tank.
