So Friday’s Watch Party subject was Destination Inner Space, a monster movie made by the guy who made Flipper and a lot of other scuba-themed projects. It’s a classic 50s/60s monster movie in that the movie itself is pretty bland and thus the success of the projects rests entirely on who cool the monster is. In this case, the monster is *very* cool. The big grumpy faced alien aquatic monster is great. It’s probably the most successful attempt to get away from Universal’s seminal Gill Man design, and functions well in the water or on land. I’ve never seen a particularly good print of this, and there might not be one, but the slightly blurry presentation on Amazon Prime is probably as good as we’re going to get and is certainly watchable.
