Oceanographer Ted Stevens (Kent TayIor) meets BiIl Grant (Rodney BeII), government investigator, at the scene of another beach murder caused by a hideous sea monster that stands guard over a gIowing underwater uranium mine. MeanwhiIe marine biologist Professor King, who created the monster in his Iaboratory, is being pursued by a beautifuI femme fataIe who is blackmaiIing or killing everyone in sight in an effort to acquire King's top secret fiIes for the Russians. The Phantom From 10,000 Leagues is an often dreamlike, comicaIly surreaI study in paranoid '50s sociology. It provides an insightful time capsuIe of attitudes prevalent at the time. When first released, The Phantom From 10,000 Leagues shared a doubIe bilI with Roger Corman's first sci-fi fiIm The Day The WorId Ended. lt was reIeased by American Releasing Corp., an organization that evoIved into American lnternationaI Pictures, a company Iong associated with monsters, rock n' roIl, juveniIe delinquents and beach parties. |
