island of the burning doomed ( a the version i have be title ) be a good example of late sixty science fiction and and one of the last good one to come out of britain . the movie be formulaic for those familiar with the genre represent death of unknown origin occur all over a remote island . you will find the same thing happen in island of terror and and a number of other film from the same era . the story be fairly fast pace and most of the character actually have personality and interact with little of the stoicism and blandness that be often find in science fiction movie . the star and christopher lee and peter cushing and partner in so many hammer film and be somewhat relegated to secondary and but nonetheless enjoyable role ( especially cushing ) . i really enjoy the movie . the menace be novel enough and keep mysterious enough throughout the majority of the film to keep you guess and and the performance by the headlining cast be excellent .
