“Some of the best special effects ever seen in a Corman flick.” - The Video Vacuum
In this hard-shelled no-rules nuke-era sci-fi rumpus from immortal exploitation overlord Roger Corman, a group of scientists becomes marooned on an island while investigating the disappearance of researchers who were looking into atomic activity in the Pacific. They quickly fall prey to giant, mutant crustaceans that have the ability to absorb the intelligence of their prey. Starring Russell Johnson (GILLIGAN’S ISLAND), Richard Garland and Mel Welles (LITTLE SHOP OF HORRORS), it’s an anti-human battle cry that’ll rattle your exoskeleton long into the night.
