Summary: 'Invaders from Mars' clone
Review: It's the old first atomic submarine meets alien menace underwater and good conquers evil story. Seldom aired, this is an SF classic.

Rating: 1 stars
Summary: This one's all wet...
Review: This film stinks. It gives B scifi a bad name -- even makes those Roger Corman movies look stunning. If possible, I would give it a negative rating to balance the positive reviews seen here. If you want cornball underwater action, buy "Voyage to the Bottom of the Sea." Provided that your cerebral cortex is active, you'll agree it's a zillion times better.

Rating: 3 stars
Summary: Deep Sea Cheese
Review: This movie has to be viewed more than once to appreciate it. A plastic submarine in an aquarium is hard to accept but all in all this movie is a pretty enjoyable watch. An alien saucer under the polar ice cap planning the take over of earth. As for the DVD itself the quality is quite good, no extras (other than the trailer/scene selections} but a nice clean picture.

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: great 50's sci-fi B-movie!
Review: This movie probably gets overlooked because of the title, which seems incredibly dull and unimaginative for such a cool flick. I think it should have been called "The Superatomic Submarine vs. the Flying Saucer" because that is what the movie is really about and it sounds much more exciting. The movie has everything a fan of 50's sci-fi B-movies would want. The story is a unique twist on the flying saucer theme because this saucer can travel under water, and you get two classic sci-fi vehicles for the price of one because this flying saucer takes on a futuristic (remember this was the 1950's) submarine. The parts that take place inside the saucer are very creepy. During these scenes, a pitch black background and cool creepy music are used to maximum effect. There are few funny lines in the movie, especially the ones where the hero is talking to the alien who, by the way, will not disappoint those who love cheesy cool aliens in their sci-fi movies. I have three words for B-movie fans: SEE IT NOW!
