A drive-in classic that is one of the most cherished horror pictures of the '50s. [30 Oct 1997, p.F17]
This Universal sci-fi saga has little of the style or atmosphere of the studio's '30s horror classics; its stars are amiable Richard Carlson and Julia Adams. But it does have a unique monster: the Amazonian gill man, a lovelorn amphibian who spots Adams underwater and doesn't stop swimming after her until the very last minute. [30 Oct 1998, p.I]

Monster film entertains, despite its age. Watch it and you wont be disappointed if you go into it with the right attitude. :)

Wow, This is an awfully boring movie that features very little of the titular creature but instead focuses on a painfully boring plot and wooden characters. This could have been so much better than what it was.
