Curiosidades
Uses stock footage of the underground magneto-dynamo from the German science fiction thriller Ouro (1934).

Erros de gravação
In the early scene in the hardware store, when the scientists toss washers up to the ceiling to determine a magnetic source, the the washers roll and spin before settling on the ceiling, just as some coins would do so if dropped on the floor. A magnetic force strong enough to magnetize much heavier objects in the store would have pulled the washers directly to the ceiling without the extraneous movement.

[Jeffrey and Connie Stewart arrive at their new house and are walking toward the front door]
Dr. Jeffrey Stewart: Hey, you're not so skinny.
Connie Stewart: I'm working on it. I'm getting bigger and better.
Dr. Jeffrey Stewart: Secret of multiplication.
Connie Stewart: What are you talking about?
Dr. Jeffrey Stewart: I'm not sure. Excepting they both seem to have something to do with multiplication. Done through love, the result is a baby, a... a lovely thing. But without love, done through hate or... or fear, the result is a monster, an element that grows.

Quite an Attraction

This is very good 1950's science fiction. At the center is Curt Siodmak, a pretty good writer who involves us in a tale where the use of a particle accelerator causes magnetism to go crazy. It results in implosions that could eventually end all life on earth. It's up to Richard Carlson and King Donovan, staples in the movie genre of the time, to come up with a solution. This is post atom bomb time and we are treated to a lot of moralizing about life and its preciousness. This could have gotten out of hand but is reined in pretty well. I thought the science was reasonable and the acting quite good. Stereotyping was kept to a minimum and allowed the principles to do their thing. Very good scene in an appliance store at the beginning.
