‘Michael Sherrington (Bill Curran)
returns to his ancestral home to
find his pregnant wife has died in
his absence. His mother and sisters-
indaw are sullen and secretive, a
sinister doctor has the run of the
house, and his brother has vanished
mysteriously. A complicated tale of
family turmoil and weird science
emerges. Dubbed dialogue substi-
tutes for action, entire scenes are
replayed as a dream sequence to fill
up time, the monster makeup is
silly instead of scary, and the film-
totape transfer quality is terrible.

Aliens steal a space probe and pilot
it back to Earth, landing in the sea.
Entrepreneurs hoping to build a re-
sort on a nearby tropical island run
into some unexpected trouble. The
aliens, hoping to dominate Earth,
mutate local life forms — an octo-
pus, a crab, a turtle and some bats
— into giant monsters who attack
and kill. Natives try to placate them
with ceremonial dances, but sterner
measures are called for. Clumsy
Japanese science fiction - might
amuse youngsters.
