Maybe I’m composed seeing this movie through the eleven year stale eyes I had in 1954, but I honest watched the tape today and to me it clear seems distinguished better than its reputation. It actually is a feminist film in that the character who motivates the action and has the most shroud time is the female lead. Apparently a tourist, she works alone to try to solve the mysterious disappearances of humans and animals off a coastal Mexican village, while receiving nothing but ridicule from her new-found marine biologist boyfriend. If sometimes she does seem to fetch startled a limited too easily, she snappy overcomes her fears and continues her quest. Eventually, she snags a portion of the monster on her boat anchor and mails it to her boyfriend and his colleague who have moved their research operation on down the hover. As they leer the sample, the boyfriend finally realizes there is a monster, and returns in time to rescue her, and his hero residence, with a desirable human-propelled diminutive submarine. Presumably they live happily ever after, but we know who’s going to be the go-getter in this family! By the arrangement, the monster, often referred to as a one-eyed octopus, is actually a giant amoeba created by that mature 50’s standby, radiation from an atomic bomb test.
MONSTER FROM THE OCEAN FLOOR stars Anne Kimball, Stuart Wade, Dick Pinner, Inez Palange, Jonathan Haze, and David Garcia.
This movie stars a strong female lead, who is fairly easy on the eyes without the obscenity of modern-bathing suits. Julie Blair, played by Anne Kimball, investigates stories of an underwater, single red-eyed, monster that is terrorizing a miniature Mexican community.
Steve Dunning (Stuart Wade), a marine biologist working in the cove provides the romantic interest. He pedals around a steady natty one-man mini-sub. Without giving away the ending, this fact will be considerable at the movie’s ending.

A local witch influences one of the peasants to fabricate an attempt to sacrifice her, “the exquisite one,” as an appeasement to the monster. His haphazard attempts design us sympathetic to him in a movie that drags somewhat and where there is small vital action.
I read that this was Roger Corman’s first production, making it a must perceive for his fans and collectors. The director is Wyott Ordung who also appears as the superstitious Pablo in the movie. Roger Corman is in the movie, too, as Tommy. There is nothing on the box from RHINO or on the DVD to announce us this.
Kimball gives a worthy performance although the other actors often arrive off wooden and as if they are reading. The music is not poor and compliments the suspenseful water scenes. The one-eyed monster comes off cheap by today’s standards, maybe even by those in 1954, but it is composed rather smart with its one bulging contemplate. Unfortunately, we do not eye considerable of it. The underwater scenes with the monster dilapidated a puppet in an aquarium. The live sequences, with honest the swimmers and the sub was purported to be proper deep-sea footage. Usually such shots are done a few inches under water in someone’s pool.

The RHINO DVD is a conventual pan/scan 1.33:1. There are no extras, impartial the movie and a few chapter divisions. The characterize is sparkling determined although the sound is below average. I had to turn my speakers diagram up. Fraction of the pickle rests with the new production. There is too considerable background noise and the constant blowing wind becomes a distraction.
In retrospect the peasant woman, really a witch who disavows the local padre for her old superstitions, comes across as a actual monster. However, she has slight hide time. Further, while the character played by Kimball incessantly seeks the monster, she goes out unarmed and passes out every time she sees it. While she has proof of her discovery at the waste, she goes succor into the water looking for it again, for no top-notch reason whatever. It simply provides the final spot for the movie’s quiet climax. The logic fails somewhat at this point.
Nevertheless, I like B-grade movies and this is a gorgeous one.
