(1961, Upgraded 5/15/24) Anthony Carbone, Betsy Jones Moreland, Robert Towne, Beach Dickerson, Esther Sandoval. Now in widescreen from a stunning 35mm print. A fake sea monster, blamed for many deaths, turns out to be real! The monster is kind of goofy-looking, but still more than able to rip you to shreds—which it does to more than one victim! There’s a bit of espionage in the overall storyline, which adds to the fun of it all. Moreland and Carbone are perfect in their roles as a couple of American connivers. Carbone's cowardly reaction to the monster pulling the woman he loves overboard is priceless! If you like other Corman gems like Little Shop of Horrors or A Bucket of Blood, you'll love this film. Great black comedy fun! This is the first time this great comedy sci-fi/horror title has been offerred in widescreen in its extended 73-minute version. From 35mm.
