Well _Hydra's_ crap, but I mean, big shock, right? The titular beast doesn't look very good, but at least it's on-screen. None of the characters are likeable, and I'll literally never watch this again (and I **certainly** won't be recommending it here or anywhere else), but I didn't hate it, and this sort of thing is often **very** hateable. _Final rating:★½: - Boring/disappointing. Avoid where possible._
