This is a great piece of 50s horror with decent characters and story. As far as 50s creature feature films go, I think this one really stands out. It packs a lot of suspense and some of the scenes are downright terrifying, especially the underwater one and the finale. I watch this for the monster of course, but the scenes without the monster are very good as well. It remains very focused on a set of characters and I like how they keep the romance subplot, which usually take over the main plot, at a minimum. That helps a lot in maintaining a palpable sense of dread. The stop-motion animation Ray Harryhausen is rather impressive and make this an incredibly entertaining watch.
