Wissenswertes
Director Kevin Connor said "Doug McClure was a great asset. In fight scenes he was especially good due to his hours of American TV action films. He knew exactly where the camera was at all times and threw punches precisely where the effect would work for the screen. He was always co-operative and came up with many ideas."

Patzer
The same cargo ship model is used for both the British ship and the German supply ship. The same film sequence is used to show the torpedoing and sinking of "both" vessels only the first time we see it as though through the periscope and then later from the perspective of standing on the surfaced submarine's sail.

great B-Movie

This has everything for a budding boy to enjoy. There's monsters, the struggle against evil, a submarine and the stunningly beautiful Susan Penhaligon. I was lucky enough to see this when it came out and it enthralled me. I still watch it on television when I can, with fond memories. It is not aging well. CFXs have left it looking quite poor in places. However, for a B-Movie it is very well done. The acting, storyline, direction and editing are all well controlled. I agree that a remake may be justified, as long as the inherent innocence of it all is not lost.

It is good family fun which will keep boys glued for an afternoon. And Susan is as beautiful as ever :-)
