The special effects are unrealistic, as are the dialog and performances. However, despite everything, the picture still makes for great fun.

It starts off promisingly with some stylised and ridiculous heroics involving a German sub, but once the island has been occupied and a few excellent monsters vanquished, the plot settles down to some very ordinary machinations.

Just as the much grander Jaws became less scary the moment its mechanical shark appeared, the early virtues of Land collapse once the island is reached and the traffic jam in artificial monsters develops.

Top CriticRemains an entertaining old-fashioned adventure tale but loses any edge it might have started out with.

The special effects are laughable, but the script, co-written by acclaimed science fiction writer Moorcock, is meatier than one might expect...
