The Atomic Submarine (1959) – What’s Under The Ice Is Not Nice
A black and white science fiction film from 1959 that asks the question: What is causing the disappearance of so many submarines in an area near the North Pole? A meeting of military experts convenes to try and come up with a plan to fins what is happening in the region. The nuclear submarine, "Tigershark" is dispatched to the area to investigate further. Be prepared for some crude but cool special effects miniatures work and a reveal of a USO, an unidentified submerged object, that is in fact a flying saucer. The military finds a way to temporarily subdue the alien vessel and board it! Things get a little farfetched at this point but, hey, this is speculative cinema! Anything goes. Some good face melting scenes ensue and a punctured giant eye. Will the Earth survive? Our resourceful military personnel will personally see to it! Very enjoyable viewing diversion. Worth a look.
