11/18/2021 I know it was 1960, but the exploration of this social experiment gets shallower by the minute past half-way, even for heteronormative monogamy. It really doesn't explore its base concept beyond that. The acting is just okay. How it got a sci-fi or horror tag is beyond me. It's not the so-bad-it's-good genre -- it's just a bore, even if you're curious about adulterous themes, which it also barely scrapes the surface of. Anticlimactic topped off with lost potential. Skip it. See more stu b 02/21/2019 An early Corman snoozefest. A millionaire and his wife, accompanied by the husband's handsome young lawyer, go scuba-diving in the Caribbean; when they surface, they discover that everyone at the island paradise where they'd been vacationing is dead. It's a promising end-of-the world premise, all right, but it's sabotaged by wooden acting, stock characters, and a pencil-thin plot that goes absolutely nowhere. Watch it to see who survives if you like, but don't say you haven't been warned. With prolific Hollywood scribe Robert Towne (acting, very early in his career, under the name Edward Wain) as the lawyer. (He also--under his real name--wrote the script. Yes, years before "Chinatown" and all his other hits, he penned this turkey. Well, we've all gotta start somewhere, I guess.) Low-key, low-energy, and--it's a Roger Corman film, after all--low-budget. Not recommended. See more 10/09/2016 Loved the row-boat fish-fight. See more 08/15/2014 An amoral businessman, his neglected wife, and a straight-laced lawyer emerge from a scuba diving trip to discover that everyone else on the planet is dead. This cheap post-apocalyptic adultery drama manages to be even less interesting than the other movie Roger Corman shot back-to-back with the same cast and Puerto Rico locations, THE CREATURE FROM THE HAUNTED SEA.

See more 02/17/2014 Not so much the horror situation that is created with the last two men and a woman on earth, but a psychological exploration of love and lust. See more Read all reviews
