I have read the first three - Honestly, I was stunned by how awful the first book was, but it was a really entertaining kind of awful. (Steve Alten seems to agree - he rewrote the first book for subsequent publication. I haven't read this revised version yet.) The Trench was just deadly dull to me, but that didn't stop me from reading the third book, Primal Waters, which I enjoyed a lot more, in spite of its breathless present tense narrative device. So, guilty pleasures indeed, and I will get around to Hell's Aquarium soon. I'm not proud. That said, I would be first in line if they really made a big budget MEG movie - an event that seems to get less and less likely all the time.
