If you start questioning the logic behind this story your head will explode. These were subterranean bugs, lived in the dark forever, yet, once given the opportunity, they had no trouble dashing for the surface and tracking down people to attack. (Okay, maybe they occasionally turned on the lights below so they could read, sew, cook......because goodness knows electricity is a lot better than lava light).
Yes, it was dopey, the plot overly familiar, the bad guys standard fare, the children annoying, the bugs.....well, they were BIG. Other than that, this would be all right for a double feature night, providing the second feature was a whole lot better.

Sci-Fi Channel be damned. i never thought they could ever produce a film worth purchasing, but they have. a truly entertaining and original bug movie.A local is con'd out of his home so that miners can dig in his land for riches. what they find are giant beetles with a thirst for human flesh. meanwhile a family of adventurers move in to the area and begin a cave diving tour. they are soon contracted by mercenaries hoping to find out what happened to the mine unaware of the giant beetles below. they decend into the caves and are shut in by a quake leaving them stranded in a cave with man-eaters. The wife and daughter are on the surface and are quickly under siege from the flesh eating bugs. they must find a way, both those on the surface and those below, to stop the pissed off bugs before its to late.Now the sci-fi channel usually has a 2 million or less budget for thier films and usualy do okey with the budget but really bad in total. this is one of the few films that proves that mix-up. The CG beetles are not bad looking and can pass off as shiny giant bugs most of the time. The acting is minimal at most but has some good backup from christopher atkins and colm meaney of DS9.

Great movie involving lying bad guys to get in a cave that was supposed to have raw jewels for the taking. Most of the bad guys were killed and the bugs that were in the cave. The good guys eventually got out with help from the son that found another way into the cave

So this is what Christopher Atkins has been up to since The Blue Lagoon? I was ready to shut Caved In: Prehistoric Terror off after 3 minutes, once I witnessed the pitiful CG creatures. But I like to watch movies in their entirety to give an honest review. Fortunately, this one got better (although not in terms of CGI). Ok, so the first thing that jumps out at you is the Sci-Fi Channel-level of computer effects (make that Windows 95-level), and not so coincidentally, this is a Sci-Fi made for TV movie (Complete with bad laser effects! Haven't seen those in a while). Anyway, this is yet another subterranean creature feature, that at least had some practical gore, and plenty of European beetle fodder. Kind of fun if you have low expectations (...you had me at "Sci-Fi Channel"). I kind of dug the daughter (Chelan Simmons). Nice touch that they gave her the exact same haircut as her rich mom. She's a great screamer, and took bug guts to the face, repeatedly! Chelan turns up in other horror movies, most notably Final Destination 3, and Tucker and Dale vs. Evil.

Not that great.

It's like what you get on the horror or SYFY channels, not the good films either.
Watch it before you think of buying.
