==Ratings==
===[http://www.mpaa.org/film-ratings/ MPAA Ratings]===

* Rated: PG (Violence)

===Tentacle Ratings===
A rough [[Tentacle Ratings|measure]] of how "Lovecraftian" the work is:
* S____ (One Tentacle: Debateably Lovecraftian; has almost no direct connection to Lovecraft's work)

Nothing ''Lovecraftian'' to see here; this is basically ''Jaws'', with tentacles.

''Note: This rating is not intended as a measure of quality, merely of how closely related to Lovecraftian "Weird" fiction the work is.''

==Synopsis==

{{spoiler|
When numerous people go missing in a seaside resort town, reporter Ned Turner helps to uncover the reason -- a gigantic rampaging octopus. As the eight-legged monster continues to terrorize the coast, marine biologist Will Gleason attempts to devise a way to stop the octopus before more tourists fall victim to the creature. Meanwhile, it appears that a corporation headed by Mr. Whitehead may be connected to the cephalopod's violent behavior.
