That boi C @RT94044319 07/17/2025 i didn’t like how they killed omar cuz he was my favorite character f*ck that german piece of sh*t See more Blobbo X @Blobbo 06/04/2023 Blobbo still might have packet of "Instant Blood" ("Your only protection against the Flesh Eaters!") handed out at box office in 1964, laying around somewhere. See more Heime S @Heime 11/11/2022 Taken for its timeframe, it's not that terrible as a B science fiction movie. I saw it as a kid in the 70s when these kind of shows were shown every Saturday and I freaked out.😂😂 that was the timeframe when they were showing Godzilla movies, but the scene where the beatnik Omar dies was very traumatic to an 11 year old! Campy and goofy by modern standards, and the sci-fi special effects cannot compare obviously. If only they allowed nudity back, then… See more 05/30/2020 A small group of people get stuck on an island with flesh eating bacteria, and a mad scientist. Beatnik era sci-fi, in musical score and linguistic delivery style. Especially after Omar (Ray Tudor) arrives on the scene. Boring Americana hero type (Byron Sanders) has all the answers as usual, and the stereotypical damsel in distress (Barbara Wilkin) and older worn out starlet's (Rita Morley) singular motivation is to have relations with said boring hero, more than saving their own lives. The Villain (Martin Kosleck) is heavily German accented, and can't be trusted right away, simply for being German, I guess. (turns out he's actually a WWII Nazi) At least Barbara Wilkin looks great in her bathing suit. Summary: This 60s era flick is mainly a snoozefest. See more 08/18/2019 Honestly, a good movie for the time period. The nazi scene (supposedly added after 1964, but from 1962) was pretty bad and the director was aweful -- just that. The acting isn't as stiff as people are making it out to be, just the recitation of lines, almost monotone half the time, otherwise reaction shots and deliberate action seems fairly ahead of its time. Yes, the monster was cheezy and the plot has a major hole (mainly, why did the marine biologist care about the three when they arrived? He didn't need them for what he claimed to later.) Whatever, after watching Under The Skin, I was sadly impressed by this early attempt at smart horror. See more 02/20/2017 This was a very average low budget monster flick, but I was very interested to realize that it was written by Arnold Drake, who gave us the old Doom Patrol characters from DC Comics, which sort of felt appropriate, given the over the top action here. Rental? Maybe? See more Read all reviews
