Beneath is a shrewd morality experiment that asks its audience a difficult question — what would they do if they were in the same boat — on top of showing what happens when baser instincts supersede compassion.

It's all so stupefyingly disconnected from any actual human experience it almost maybe sort of spins back around on itself

An entertaining B grade creature feature that's potentially better made than those forgotten films of yore it may bring to mind.

The characters are so one-note and annoying that it doesn't manage to be anything close to compelling as a character drama, and they're not bold enough archetypes that it plays as satire.

A few things could have been improved upon, but it's at least ambitious and has an interesting twist.
