For the record, "Slither," "The Descent," and "The Brood" are not mediocre. They were all tied to good directors (James Gunn, Neil Marshall, and David Cronenberg), and there were aspects of each that were worth admiring besides their monsters. Can't really say anything about the others listed cause I haven't seen them, although the monsters certainly do look awesome.

"Outlander", "The Cave", "The Relic" are definitely underrated. Add mention of "Mimic", "Deep Rising", "Pitch Black", "Solomon Kane", "The Mist", "Monsters", "Life", "Underwater", and "Love & Monsters". The upcoming "Monster Hunter" looks to be cool too.

Relic was indeed underrated, but it was also badly rewritten from book to screenplay. The Kothoga was the tribe who "created" the creature M'Bwun for one thing. Not to mention altering or killing characters needed to create viable sequels. The authors have said they regretted selling the rights, but it was their first dealing with Hollywood and didn't know what they were getting into. Could have been so much more considering how interconnected most of Preston and Childs novels are.

I think it is a disservice to call a lot of these films 'mediocre', many of them were quite good, some are well known and highly praised, and some are under-the-radar type movies. My favorites on here were The Relic, Monster, The Descent, Mermaid-She Creature, and The Brood. I had forgotten that I've seen Mermaid-She Creature. I'm glad The Brood, was mentioned, that movie is usually forgotten.

I realize I'm 4 months too late to probably be seen by you guys, but I just had to comment on something. I just recently discovered your channel and the content I've seen consistently from you all has been top notch and extremely nostalgic for a creature feature lover like me. Thanks for that. However, at 6:05 where you introduce the Kothoga from the movie The Relic, it needs to be pointed out who really designed the creature. Some credit definitely goes to the VFX team but you also need to give Douglas Preston and Lincoln Child credit as well since it was almost word for word how they described it in the book. As a matter of fact, it's the only thing from the book to make it in the movie other than the first death. Even the location was changed. I ended up walking out of the theater in disgust a third through the movie since I was rooting for the monster and knew it was going to have some spectacular death unlike the one it got in the novel, simply because Hollywood. They shit all over one of my favorite horror novels but, hey, they made a nice looking monster at least. Pfft.

I tend to judge "monster" movies by the metric of 'if you replaced the monster with a human villain, would it still work/be enjoyable' & both The Relic & Outlander would still be enjoyable films if the monsters were instead skilled, frighteningly intelligent human monsters. She-Creature was an interesting take on merfolk. I thought it was pretty damn cool.
