Review – The Atomic Submarine

Effects this bad might be fun if they were created by some kids playing around with sub models and a camcorder, but in a professional production the nicest thing I can say about them is that at least they’re consistent with the quality of the rest of the production. Apparently in the future submarine journeys under the North Pole will be common, not just military boats but also undersea passenger liners. Surface craft traffic appears to have picked up a bit beyond current levels as well. So it’s humanity’s dumb luck that an evil alien presence lurks under the ice, cruising its flying/swimming saucer around and destroying ships when it finds them. Eventually the intrepid, two-fisted crew of the title vessel manages to track the thing down and ram their ship into it. This leads to a showdown between our heroes and an alien that looks like a moldy hot dog with a single eye. Fun stuff. See if desperate
