the only reason i be even give this movie a 4 be because it be make in to an episode of mystery science theater 3000. the horrible direction be only slightly overshadow by the character complete inability to act . the lead be an actor i have never see in anything else and it show . no chemistry with the love interest and so bland you almost do not care what happen to him . dick sargent be not convince a a villain least of all this guy be suppose to be super evil . he be more annoying then anything . peter graf be the only person the movie that wasn not awful and his part be small and even he couldn not compensate for his co star lack of talent . in 2004 someone try to make this mess all over again it be call the island . i personally do not see that movie but from what i understand it the same movie . if you want to laugh at this movie get the mst3k episode it really funny . full of bewitch and biography reference it make this movie finally watchable .
