I remember watching this movie (in black and white!) late at night with my brother when we were young. The scenes aboard the ship scared us silly. I hadn't watched it in probably 35 years when I picked up the DVD recently on Amazon. I think the movie holds up pretty well. It's a B-movie to be sure, but interesting. Surprisingly, the Japanese language/English subtitles version is not much better (if at all) than the dubbed version. But they're both here so decide for yourself. I still like it!
