I reminded of a line from a recent Spiderman comic. "You can change people DNA and instead of curing Cancer, you change people into Dinosaurs." But I don't want to cure Cancer. I want to Change People into Dinosaurs".
To be fair, ones vision is quite limited while wearing a dive mask. One can only see straight ahead, and whatever one would normally notice in ones peripheral vision is blocked by the walls of the mask. That being said, from our angle it looks as if Jenny looks right at the creature while turning.
Work, sleep, fight, eat, defecate, get funky, write naval-gazing post modern fiction. I love the melodramatic villains and navy men in this film. 60s Japanese sci fi flix do those great!
The blonde actress looks like the one from the Japanese movie King Kong Escapes "I guarantee you 99%, there's no plot in this movie" :) Impression of The Simpson's Mr. Burns :) Killed by his own cyborg creation. Poetic justice.
No, but she is the same actress from “The X from Outer Space”, and also made an appearance in the recent “Great Buddha Arrival” along with a ton of other kaiju-film alumni.
well, I thought I posted my comment already, but here it goes.... Seems to me Island of the Fishmen/Screamers might have had folks using this as inspiration....something DC should look in to and review, perhaps?
Let's see, settings for my "cyborg underwater monster". I think I will go with PROTECT (as in me), FRIENDS (like with me) and when all else fails, OFF.
Hey Robin, I would like to list some suggestions for films to review: -Superman III -Jaws 3 and Jaws: The Revenge -Revenge of the Creature -Scars of Dracula -Horror of Frankenstein -The Beast of Hollow Mountain -The Giant Behemoth -House of Dracula (1945) -Gamera: The Giant Monster (1965) -A video comparing the different versions of Superman II
Extra settings? It looked they had it set on CAMP during the whole movie. The only thing missing was Doctor Smith bitching the back ground about how BATMAN was getting better ratings then LOST IN SPACE.
See if this will work: GIRL'S SCHOOL CYBORG MONSTERS He was a frustrated high school science teacher at the Climax Preparatory School for Young Ladies. But he wanted more. He wanted to rule the world. The only thing that might stop him is the girls at the school and their visiting boyfriends.
@3:35 When he has a power that can shatter the earth what're the odds that he just might use it for said purpose? And when (not if) he does where will he be? Shattering the earth while you're still there is not a well thought out plan!
RIP Sonny Chiba. If they'd just have turned him loose, he'd have kicked everyone's asses in this film, and it would've been a fun watch. If you close your eyes, this movie sounds like an episode of Speed Racer....did Titra dub this one?
I just saw this movie and it swings wildly between hysterically goofy to awfully dull, all wrapped together in a cringy tortilla. Additional cyborg setting: F***, of course.
Obviously made for the afternoon kiddie matinee circuit back then, and bearing that in mind, it's every bit as good a film as one would realistically expect it to be.
"Comically flamboyant". This is a separate switch and will alter the behavior of the other three settings. The fight setting will start with over the top insults toward fashion and hair style using trends gathered from the internet. The it progresses to slapping...you get the idea.
Presuming that these cyborgs are extremely specialized, work, sleep & fight is probably the limit of their abilities. You wouldn't have a "perform neurosurgery" setting on your "general housework" cyborg, would you. That would just be silly!
My God , another VOYAGE TO THE BOTTOM OF THE SEA rip off. This stinker looks like they just recycled the sets , props and actors from GREEN SLIME. You made your bad guy look like a Bond villain ( wonder if there was an evil / mad / bad scientist school out there some where? ). You have the " screaming blond " who there to tell us something is scary ( and it never is) , the " man of action " who look like he's trying to force a bowel movement every time yells. I don't know who made the monster costume , but have the feeling he was the lowest bidder. It was a good thing that drive-ins were made little kids , people making or getting drunk because other wise nobody would have paid good money to see this loser.
All these movie cyborgs seem to have four settings. Work, sleep, fight, kill creator.
I reminded of a line from a recent Spiderman comic. "You can change people DNA and instead of curing Cancer, you change people into Dinosaurs." But I don't want to cure Cancer. I want to Change People into Dinosaurs".
Additional settings: "Deflate." "Mambo." "Quibble."
To be fair, ones vision is quite limited while wearing a dive mask. One can only see straight ahead, and whatever one would normally notice in ones peripheral vision is blocked by the walls of the mask. That being said, from our angle it looks as if Jenny looks right at the creature while turning.
Rest in peace, Sonny Chiba.
Work, sleep, fight, and Sushi Chef
@3:55 And he'd have gotten away with it if it wasn't for that meddling Navy!
LOL!
Just discovered this site and it’s fantastic
Work, sleep, fight and Harlem shake
Our Harlem Shake is a century beyond yours!
"Dance" is nice.
"Conversation" could also be useful.
Maybe "Invent" for all your super-science needs.
Work, sleep, fight, eat, defecate, get funky, write naval-gazing post modern fiction.
I love the melodramatic villains and navy men in this film. 60s Japanese sci fi flix do those great!
I think that's "navel-gazing", unless it has to do with ships.
Based on 1:10, I'm thinking the 'disco' setting was an upgrade.
i'm disappointed that from what you showed that sonny chiba doesn't undersea street fight fish cyborgs. because that would be awesome.
Work, sleep, fight, sashay, mime artist, and overly exaggerated winking.

As someone married for over 25 years, I can attest that WORK, SLEEP, FIGHT are pretty standard limits to the day.

Love, of course !
Work, Sleep, Eat, fight, play that funky music
Here's your problem, your androids were switched to "evil".
It’s a small design flaw. In model 2 the good/evil switch was located on their foreheads. [note to self, never buy model 1 of anything]
Let's see, settings for my "cyborg underwater monster". I think I will go with PROTECT (as in me), FRIENDS (like with me) and when all else fails, OFF.
"Dance Varmint"
Hey, me again! Anyway, I have a request for you: what did you think about the Daimajin Trilogy?
Hey Robin, I would like to list some suggestions for films to review:
-Superman III
-Jaws 3 and Jaws: The Revenge
-Revenge of the Creature
-Scars of Dracula
-Horror of Frankenstein
-The Beast of Hollow Mountain
-The Giant Behemoth
-House of Dracula (1945)
-Gamera: The Giant Monster (1965)
-A video comparing the different versions of Superman II
Extra settings? It looked they had it set on CAMP during the whole movie. The only thing missing was Doctor Smith bitching the back ground about how BATMAN was getting better ratings then LOST IN SPACE.
Extra setting: BOOGIE!
"And I would have gotten away with it if it wasn't for that boy and girl and that meddling Navy!!!" " BAH!!". Mr.Dark Sun glasses.
See if this will work: GIRL'S SCHOOL CYBORG MONSTERS He was a frustrated high school science teacher at the Climax Preparatory School for Young Ladies. But he wanted more. He wanted to rule the world. The only thing that might stop him is the girls at the school and their visiting boyfriends.
Possible cyborg settings:
- Hold me, Thrill me, Kiss me, Kill me
- Birth, School, Work, Death
- Eat, Sleep, Rave, Repeat
- Get down, Make love
Shave? I mean themselves.
Underwarer city with mad scientists? Rapture, is that you?
Thanks for sharing. I haven't seen this one in a long time. I would say Mr. Burns does an excellent impression of the mad scientist in this movie.
"Terror Beneath the Sea" is a gloriously
bad movie-definitely in a class by itself.
Work, sleep, fight, and disco dancing
Work, fight, sleep and Love!
TCM on demand has this this month. I watched it.
...He tampered in God's domain...
Classic "Bride of the Moster" quote
@3:35 When he has a power that can shatter the earth what're the odds that he just might use it for said purpose? And when (not if) he does where will he be? Shattering the earth while you're still there is not a well thought out plan!
Banjo playing. Work, sleep, fight, banjo not even playing in fact just banjo
Now i know what "Gill"mo del toro was watching when he came up with the idea for shape of water. Get it? GILLmo del toro?
Mr. Burns? I thought he was trying for a Roy Orbison look.
RIP Sonny Chiba. If they'd just have turned him loose, he'd have kicked everyone's asses in this film, and it would've been a fun watch.
If you close your eyes, this movie sounds like an episode of Speed Racer....did Titra dub this one?
I'm so happy this review got made. This movie is unintentionally one of the funniest movies I've ever seen. Thank You, Dark Corners.
I'm sure I've never seen it. Weird!
Wasn't that mad scientist also the doctor who brought The Green Slime back to the space station?
So, creating mindless monsters just to be evil? This guy must've started The Umbrella Corporation.
This is , unintentionally, one of the funniest movies I've seen. Peggy Neal is Jenny here. She was born in Biloxi and was a regular in kaiju films.
I just saw this movie and it swings wildly between hysterically goofy to awfully dull, all wrapped together in a cringy tortilla. Additional cyborg setting: F***, of course.
Obviously made for the afternoon kiddie matinee circuit back then, and bearing that in mind, it's every bit as good a film as one would realistically expect it to be.
Work, Sleep, Fight, & Observe
Jenny was very vocal about her role.
"Comically flamboyant". This is a separate switch and will alter the behavior of the other three settings. The fight setting will start with over the top insults toward fashion and hair style using trends gathered from the internet. The it progresses to slapping...you get the idea.
This is honestly one of the funniest movies ever. Nothing in this was logical but logic is not relevant. Just go with it.
Why have Sonny Chiba in a movie without his martial arts prowess displayed?
How does she manage to scream while wearing a breathing mask.
very loudly
I think Death Kappa copied this movie in one scene.
Heh, guys - this is the '60s - at least one setting should be 'do THE SWIM'
checkout GOLDEN BAT OGON BATTO with sonny chiba
Oh man that would be awesome wouldn't it? But I don't think there's an English dub.
I should think "EAT" might be useful.
Presuming that these cyborgs are extremely specialized, work, sleep & fight is probably the limit of their abilities. You wouldn't have a "perform neurosurgery" setting on your "general housework" cyborg, would you. That would just be silly!
Sonny Chiba was really cute!
It would have been nice to see AT LEAST one other transmutation form. Mouse man. Cat woman. Armadillo dog. :-)
I wonder if the fishmen sleep?
Well, if they do, they sleep with the fish.
Now if you had this power, my friend, I wonder what form you would choose? Maybe. . .perhaps. . .Caroline Munro? 😉
Conquer World 🌍
Macarena setting
sex?? 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂 I watched this ...... movie about 3 months ago just for fun "which it wasn't "
My God , another VOYAGE TO THE BOTTOM OF THE SEA rip off. This stinker looks like they just recycled the sets , props and actors from GREEN SLIME. You made your bad guy look like a Bond villain ( wonder if there was an evil / mad / bad scientist school out there some where? ). You have the " screaming blond " who there to tell us something is scary ( and it never is) , the " man of action " who look like he's trying to force a bowel movement every time yells. I don't know who made the monster costume , but have the feeling he was the lowest bidder.
It was a good thing that drive-ins were made little kids , people making or getting drunk because other wise nobody would have paid good money to see this loser.
One of my favorite movies when I was 6 yrs old.....it's the score that I really love
Are there a lotta overseas productions that deliberately market toward us audiences?
