this amateurish and independent and shoestring b may be of interest to barry norton fan like me who be impress by his interpretation of juan harker in the spanish dracula ( 1931 ) . ala and soon after a slow and sluggish start and we be force to sit through at least twenty minute of crudely interpolate and ancient stock footage before we get back to the main story . and then and after the not unpleasing island sequence ( the whole idea of the shipwrecked sailor not want to be rescue be a reasonably appeal one ) and we have to put up with a mind numbingly miscalculate twist in the plot when morose jose suddenly reverse character and turn himself into a daringly enthusiastic captain ahab and battle a primitively superimposed stock shot of a giant manta ray . i be amaze i put up with all this rubbish before reach for the stop button and but i keep hop that barry norton would do something to justify his star billing . he doesn not . not one single thing . despite a delayed entrance of at least thirty minute and the actual lead player be jack del rio . he get most of the running . and even bill lemuels a the native chief have a more colorful part than our barry norton and the film nominal hero . and a for the heroine and lovely blanche mehaffey and she fare even bad . if she figure in more than two minute of footage and i would be very surprised . maya owalee get far more attention and and even mary carr seem to have a big part . and it be the talented miss owalee who contribute the movie one successfully pregnant moment when she collapse on the beach after jose desert her . all in all and however and despite miss owalee and the film innate curiosity value and devil monster rate a a viewer nightmarean almost complete waste of talent and time .
