A league is about 3.4 miles, or 5.5 kilometers. 10,000 Leagues is 55,000 kilometers. The Earth is less than 13 thousand kilometers is diameter. This monster is from so deep in the ocean it was in high orbit on the other side of the planet.
Quaker cereal Comic character Quake tunneled so far underground he ended up on another planet in a story so guess there is supposed to be some kind of space warp down there.

Enjoyed this slow moving, not much action, mystery disguised as a sci-fi thriller. I have a certain fondness for these types of movies! Thanks for posting!
This movie is in a league all its own. Used to stay up all Saturday night watching movies like this when I was 12 in '72. I guess I was out of my league
Yup these and we were close to border so Spanish channels with Santo vs mummies and vampire women there was a whole series anhh puberty n women in cheap movies
Was staying up myself back then. So glad all the b & w sci Fi movies we can watch anytime and anywhere with microphone popcorn. It is a blessing to live in the baby boom generation. God is so good to all of us.
Thank you for uploading a great copy of this movie, whether it deserves it or not. There are some really bad copies of this on UA-cam, not that I'm pointing fingers.
If you don't like it you don't have to watch it. Sorry, I had to put this up, it's something I always seem to get when I say a movie's crap but I still love it.
Another well written, well acted, expertly directed, tightly scripted, thought provoking, high budget Sci-Fi movie from the 1950's filmed at Paradise Cove. Thanks for posting.
I miss those old diners. Chicken or shrimp in a basket w/fries and a chocolate malted(not a shake a malted) where they left the mixing container on the table. Real food also.
The creature in this film is pretty much the same one in a movie done several years later called Horror at Party Beach. In that film, it several of them.
the boat did it, I tells ya. Everybody keeps taking the same death boat! It must be the lure on the end of the line of the Phantom's humaning pole, or something.
I loved Ethyl's answer to that ugly looking creep,(the one with the Spear Gun) when she said to him, "I HAVE TOO MUCH TROUBLE OF MY OWN, TO WORRY ABOUT YOURS." Thank god that made him leave, without threatening her any further!
That's from a time when there were Ladies. Now they can't even define a woman let alone a lady. Now they demand respect as long as you lower the standards so they can meet them.
The rowboat in the scenes @17:00, @45:00, @72:00 and @1:17:00 is the same boat used by the fisherman in the opening scene. I'm beginning to think the creature had a problem with *that* boat. Either that--or the producers of the film were working within an extremely limited budget.
Unless you've got an anchor for that very small boat to keep it steady, it is going to be swept away by the current and waves, and you are not going to be able to catch up with it.
Well the monster does strike right away, you don't have to wait. But you do have a good looking woman, people who think they are intelligent and a monster that looks like baby Godzilla's dorky twin brother. Not bad. Worth watching one time for sure.
Poor Cathy Downs. She acted in some classic pictures which included Gunfight At The OK Coral directed by John Ford. Sad to actors willing to do these types of movies. Nice clean copy though.
It’s actually played by Norma Hansen, one of the two only woman to play a monster in film back then, the other being Phyllis Gordon in The Werewolf from 1915
Bad breaks in life for Cathy Downs. Booted out of big studios at age 21, divorced and alone at 37, out of acting at age 40 and unemployed thereafter, and dead of cancer at age 50.
One of my all-time favorite sci-fi films .... the actor Rodney Bell that plays the top cop here passed away in 1968 at the age of 52 years young , I couldn't find the cause of death though , does anyone on here know ? I would appreciate it 🤗
@Robert-qm5so I couldn't find cause of death either. There is another actor named Rodney Bell that died in 2005, cancer. Do let us know if you find out. Now Im curious, too! Strange its not mentioned anywhere... Cheers!
Nice quality in video. But movie...beginning wasn't as much scary, but silly. Fisherman who apparently doesn't know how to cast or deploy a net...and a monster who can't drown anyone. Then on beach, 'stiff from burns', he never said radiation burns? Boat wasn't burned either. Geeze, anyone actually reading the script or noticing the props? Ocean Beach, fresh water turtle???
the audacity of walking into someone's house is wrong. I don't know if people just walked into someone's home without being invited back in 1955, unless they were crooks.
the nutty professor, psychopathic assistant, backstabbing research associates, Federal Police and a vicious, murderous monster of the deep,. oh boy...thanks for the movie, its fun and suspenseful
LOL. you get what you paid for in the first 3 mins ! A rubber monster scaring a fisherman to death .... followed up by a man wearing a suit and tie on the beach who describes himself as a beachcomber ... first lines .. The body is covered with burns, the boat is chard too, but there's no sign of a fire !!!!! Great stuff
There was a commercial for dogfood. The dog in that commercial was much more frightening than the monster in the movie. And the dog was a living creature!
Since a league is about 3 miles, 'The Phantom from 10,000 Leagues' would have to come from the Mariana Trench, since no other trench comes close to that depth. They could'a called this "The monster from Mariana"? (doesn't have quite the same impact, eh?)

So... this is actually "The Phantom from Space"??
Lol

The picture was such good quality. I never remember B movies being this clear when I would have watched in the 70s. Our TVs must have sucked.
I'm confused what was the point of the sea monster? was made by that doctor and the light was keeping it alive?

Any news of the monster?
You got Kent Taylor playing Ted Baxter on this film with Ted Baxter on the MTM sitcom totally different people 😉
One minute into the film and there’s a clear view of the Phantom from 10,000 leagues. Thanks for that - on to the next one.
😂
And it couldnt bite.
That’s how Jaws started

Much more than modern movie of 2022.

This was a lot more interesting than I thought it would be...I admire a movie that aspires to be better than it is.

Not sure if that is positive or not. You write, "I admire a movie that aspires to be better than it is."?

i wish i could find several people in my city of toronto who love and laugh at B movies and watch em at my place..
This is a wretched piece of schlock! Thanks for putting it up! I love this stuff.

I saw this piece of shclock when it first came out in movie theaters.
like at first i was oh no dont say this but its so bad its actually good,,,love this acting and it really is not a bad movie,,,

Corrected title: *The Phantom From 10,000 Millimeters*
Which is 33 feet--the approximate depth in all the underwater shots.
jefty's road house. gotta love those old diners

This is one of my favorite films of all time
Really😂
He gets out of the ocean, hair perfectly combed! Also, his boat didn’t drift, even with no anchor down.
They're all the same rowboat. The monster hates THAT BOAT!
Monster: "I just wanted to give you a hug..."
The sea monster violated that fisherman's bathing suit area in the opening scene! More than just a hug imo.
🤣
I loved Ethyl's answer to that ugly looking creep,(the one with the Spear Gun) when she said to him, "I HAVE TOO MUCH TROUBLE OF MY OWN, TO WORRY ABOUT YOURS."
Thank god that made him leave, without threatening her any further!
Thank you. Nice copy of a somewhat enjoyable man-in-a-rubber-suit drive-in feature of the week.
She was a really beautiful lady, and I loved the date on the beach scene. That’s back in the day when men treated ladies with MUCH respect👍🏽🙏🏽
Eso es de un tiempo en el que las mujeres se hacían RESPETAR.
That's from a time when there were Ladies. Now they can't even define a woman let alone a lady. Now they demand respect as long as you lower the standards so they can meet them.
This is not only informative, but it made me laugh, a miracle in itself

Adoro esses filmes de Sci Fi de baixo orçamento. Muito obrigado por postar! Saudades do Retro Channel, da DirecTV, que exibiu muitos deles!
Amazing! A horror film without a single cliché!
Law of average it has to happen once in a while.
One glaring flaw, the monster was revealed too soon.
I really had a blast this morning on the chat, it really made my day..👍👍
The nights sure are bright back then!
You should watch some early Perry Mason tv shows. In one it's supposed to be 10 pm and the car is casting a noon shadow.
@@indy_go_blue6048 Lots of early television "night scenes" were shot during the day. Never convincing.

Monster rather toothy.
"Cold open".
@@rmarcko To be honest, there are good cold opens and bad ones. This one was a bit of a coupon shot.

Two good looking women!!!
No giant mutant man-eating telepathic crabs?
Pffffft... Can't take this movie even the least bit seriously then...
that uppercut at 1:15 was the coolest I ever saw.
He walked right into it dam
I could hear my mom yelling at him “not to sit on the arm of the chair!”

¡Excelente pelicula! Gracias por compartirla
Con 600 millones de hispano parlantes en el mundo, nadie de los que comenta. Sabe español? INCREIBLE, ALUCINANTE,
Bad breaks in life for Cathy Downs. Booted out of big studios at age 21, divorced and alone at 37, out of acting at age 40 and unemployed thereafter, and dead of cancer at age 50.
A sad end to one's film career & personal life.
Beautiful print...thank you
LOL!!! Love all this old, bad scifi!! You can't tell the creature is a man in a bad suit AT ALL! Hahaha Enjoying this.
A nice old film. I was 3 year's old when they made this. PC. 02. 04. 2023.

Amazing, a good old fashioned movie with no "F" bombs, no nudity, or sex.
Vraiment pas mal ce film, merci beaucoup
Yes odd film title for sea creature hanging out in 30ft. of sea water 🌊
Does Mike Nelson know about this movie?
It`s a funny Monster. But i like the story. thanks
Everybody used that little boat. It seems to be the only one they could afford....low budgeht!
Is their a man in the boat?
Should have called this movie “Rubber Lizard Man”....sure can’t remember ever seeing two dudes on the beach in a coat and tie?..
It could have been worse . They could have been standing around in just their overcoats 😏
10,000 leagues... 30,000 miles. Diameter of the planet... 8,000 miles.
There might be a tiny trifle of discrepancy going on here.
That monster might come from the moon
You haven't read Jules Verne. It is not about depth, but DISTANCE
U think ? Looks like a aquatic lion.(man in a suit for real tho’ ) cheesy as it maybe I really enjoyed this movie.😎👍🏽
Obviously some alternate laws of physics at work here.
All measure are approximate. Earth 8,000miles. Diameter
25,000miles circumference at equater.
239,000 MI earth to moon.
Dig the black lacquer hair do on the agent!
So much for setting a reminder. It didn't remind!
Nice quality in video. But movie...beginning wasn't as much scary, but silly. Fisherman who apparently doesn't know how to cast or deploy a net...and a monster who can't drown anyone.
Then on beach, 'stiff from burns', he never said radiation burns? Boat wasn't burned either. Geeze, anyone actually reading the script or noticing the props?
Ocean Beach, fresh water turtle???
Show the monster 30 seconds in. Way to build up the suspense.
If you don't like profanity a lot of gory And everyone running around without clothes which I don't then you'll like this movie which I did
Any horror movie made after 1978 was too gory liked The build up of suspense in this movie
Film 50s clasico Sci Fi con Kent Taylor excelente recuerdo 🎬📽🎞
I find it interesting that they're on the Pacific coast and not wearing wetsuits that water is quite cold
Great fun,loved it!Thanks
At 1:04:23 you can see the spear already attached to the back as she walks along the beach.
Good eye!
A smart a** cop running around a deserted beach in a suit! lol always enjoyed this movie Kent Taylor was in a lot of these
“The body and the boat are charred but no signs of fire. “
Radiation burns, perhaps? ☢️
the audacity of walking into someone's house is wrong. I don't know if people just walked into someone's home without being invited back in 1955, unless they were crooks.
Thank you. Happy 4/20.

It's great fun to google the players (mostly the actresses, lol). Checked out the blonde natasha. So there's this movie Jungle Moon Men . . .
Thanks for this movie
Also, so lucky the boat stays put, without an anchor.

The main guy looks like Charlie Sheen, also how did he find a fresh water turtle on a beach by the ocean..
That was my next question. Lol
It was neither turtle nor terrapin. It was in fact, a tortoise.
Good movie I enjoyed it!
Neat old movie. Love the sets (brings back my childhood memories). 30:18 minutes in you see the famous "Pyramids of Giza" from this era, so amusing!
love the polka dot bathing suit
Can't wait to see it come out of the water onto the beach smoking a big fat cigar!
Radioactive cigar, sonit burns underwater.
