Along comes one of those tedious, topeed expeditions, in a battered white boat, and the "Gill-Man" is chased, photographed, speared, half-asphyxiated, and screamed at. No wonder he commits murder (five of them).

A prehistoric man shaped fish falls in love with screaming Julia Adams in an Amazon backwater, but his courtship is a failure. So is the movie.

There are some effective underwater scenes; otherwise script and direction are commonplace.

The beats of the film are like overused sandpaper, too worn down and tattered to have more than a passing effect.

Its solitary aim was to exploit the viewer's fear of the unknown.

The technical material is so good, in fact, that if you might actually like the movie... if you can ignore everything else.
