I was really amazed that this film was given a Blu-ray release as it sometimes seems to be a lost film in the cracks of the sci-fi genre.
It looks better than it ever has. The colors are deep and rich with a very sharp picture.
The plot revolves around and undersea lab that is fighting for survival against aliens who have landed a saucer underwater and a cool looking monster that hatches from an odd shaped egg that is discovered on the craft.
Scott Brady stars as Commander Wayne, a no nonsense soldier who takes charge of the dire situation. The movie looks like it was shot for TV and has kind of an Ivan Tors flavor to it.
I like this movie a hell of a lot ever since I first saw it as a child many years ago. The cast is top notch and includes Sheree North, Wende Wagner, Gary Merrill, Mike Road, John Howard, Biff Elliot and William Thourlby.
Genre fans may already know that the sexy as hell Wende Wagner went on to become a regular on "The Green Hornet" show and Mike Road was also the voice of Race Bannon on the "Jonny Quest" cartoon.
I highly recommend this somewhat forgotten sci-fi film.
