Movie synopsis

From Ishiro Honda and Eiji Tsuburaya, the team behind Toho Studios GODZILLA and other Japanese sci-fi classics, comes their final collaboration. When a submarine rescues a stranded reporter and oceanographer they're introduced to Lattitude Zero, a secret haven for artists and scientists hidden on the ocean's floor. But all is not quiet at the bottom of the sea, as Malic the Murderer, played by Cesar Romero (BATMAN), threatens to destroy this peaceful retreat. It wouldn't be a Toho monster movie without monsters, and that's exactly what the evil Malic has at his disposal to threaten the world with, unless of course the crew from Lattitude Zero can stop him.

A childhood movie back again

Created: 30/06/09
I remember this movie from my childhood. I think I was 7 or 8 years old in 1970, when I saw it. It is a 1969 Japanese production with very impressive special effects for that time, although all made with mock ups and models. The quality of the images and colors are very good.

Now, in the age of computerized special effects, we must forgive some aspects of the scenes. I think it was a little bit inspired in "The Lost Horizon" having the Shagrila replaced by Latitude Zero underwater city, where scientists, artists and special people can live for many hundred years all looking young and perfectly healthy.

For me was a travel to my childhood... I could revisit that no longer existing young boy, fascinated by ships and submarines.

I recommend it, specially considering the very good price, around 11 US dollars. I would have paid a lot more for this movie.

SOUVENIR D'ENFANCE

Created: 05/03/11
Je me souviens avoir vu ce film pour la première fois en 1973 ou 1974. Il y avait un cinema à 300m de chez moi. J'y allais chaque mercredi. La première que je l'ai vu je l'ai trouvé à la fois génial et terrifiant. Mais je n'avais que 8 ou 9 ans. J'ai toujours aimé les effets spéciaux style "SENTINELLES DE L'AIR"(THUNDERBIRDS) de Gerry Anderson. Et je les retrouvais dans ce film. Des années plus tard, la veille du BAC, il est repassé sur TMC. Pour rien au monde je ne l'aurais raté. Et puis plus rien. Alors bien des années plus tard et grâce à internet et Ebay, je l'ai retrouvé. Pas en français, hélas. Mais je dois avouer que même s'il a vieilli c'est une sacrément bonne série B. La qualité de l'image et du son est assez exceptionnelle pour un film de cet âge. Je le recommande à tous ceux qui ont été bercé par GODZILLA, les THUNDERIRDS et JOE 90.
