The Phantom From 10,000 Leagues

The Phantom From 10,000 Leagues

Characters:

Ted Stephens: Our main character, the average 50's man, you know, with the slicked back hair and all...

Bill Grant: The local sheriff, very, very stupid

Lois: The professor’s daughter, kinda pretty, rather disturbing that she’s probably in her 70's now, either way she’s rather dumb...

George: The scheming Professors assistant, is the true cause of all evil badness in the movie, kills Ethel before being caught and put in jail with a scary large man named “Tiny”, I truly hopes he won’t drop the soap...

Professor King: An older man and oceanographer, finds a uranium pit on the ocean floor and accidentally creates a monster with it Killed himself as well as the minster with some nice good Old Fashioned dynamite

Ethel: A older secretary, trying to help out with the recent murders and ends up becoming one instead.

The Monster: Hahahaha Attack of the rubber suit Not all too much of a monster, gets barley any on screen time and only causes three deaths Last seen blown up with dynamite.




Plot:
Well, you see, this professor and oceanographer finds a rare untapped uranium mine and bends it’s powers to his will, which magically creates a part fish and rubber suit monster that starts scaring up the locals, meanwhile the professor’s assistant see’s that this could become a handy weapon and potential money maker, so he plots against the professor while the monster scares up more people and kills a whole two people










Review:
Haha Well this is quite an enjoyable movie Sure not a very good one, or a scary one or a gory one either, but all in all it’s pretty fun The movie’s plot is nice and cheesy, and filled with so many plot-holes that I’m surprised that I didn’t fall in one You see this guy in a rubber suit, wait thats not right.... Ok, let me try again, this monster is created through some weird and unusually confusing manner involving a store of uranium and a bad light. The “monster” rarely appears on-screen and for most of the time is really funny and awkward looking, I feel sorry for whoever they dragged into doing that Well the rest of the movie goes around in a mildly entertaining manner as we get to watch the characters be stupid and random... Until the end where the monster is blown up.... yeah.....

While the directing is pretty good for the most part back in those days at least. The acting is pretty fun also, the guys do a pretty good job for a cheesy 50's movie, I am surprised that that these guys didn’t appear in more films.... but I believe that I am going to have to end this review early, seeing as I gots to review at least two more movies tonight

I believe that that anyone who wants to see something a little out of the ordinary should watch this as well as fans of B-cinema and the classic 50's monster movies









Gore:
Nothing worth mentioning here....



T&A:
Nah, not in the 50's.


Bodycount: 3 and a monster



Final Rating: 2/5
