"Don't touch me you snake squeezer!"
8 April 2018
Warning: Spoilers
An investigative couple, Lee and Jane, go to an island to spy on a chemical corporation and discover they are getting rid of nuclear waste by tipping it into a local volcano, which might be a mite dangerous. He is captured but she escapes and bumps into Bob, who collects snake venom. They are pursued by the company security men. Halfway through the film an alien, presumably, from the deep, turns up with a snapping claw and starts killing everyone. There are explosions and gunfire but its mainly rather hilarious, particularly the English language dubbing in the version I viewed which doesn't make sense from one line of dialogue to the next one.

The cast does include Charles Napier but even he can't do much with his part as he is reduced to shouting inane lines all the time. The other characters are mostly irritating. It might all be clearer in the original Italian but the plot doesn't really make much sense. Was the alien a result of the chemical company's nefarious activities or did it just happen to be passing by and stop off for a snack? Who knows?
