00:00:00The End
00:01:00And the Lord said, I will destroy man whom I have created from the face of the earth, both man and beast and the creeping thing and the fowls of the air, for it repenteth me that I have made them.
00:01:30Make that line fast.
00:01:41Everybody ashore.
00:01:42Let's go.
00:02:13I not only knew that they were gone, but that they were lost, completely and forever, body of the same.
00:02:17Please, Lieutenant.
00:02:19Some of those men were our friends from the same institute.
00:02:21I'm sorry, Miss Honey.
00:02:22I'm not so sure you are right, Monsieur Quinlan.
00:02:26Maybe their bodies are gone.
00:02:28But who can tell of their souls, eh?
00:02:31Maybe if I go to them, they will answer.
00:02:34Their ghosts will answer.
00:02:35McLean!
00:02:38Hello!
00:02:40Hello!
00:02:41McLean!
00:02:47Where is the house, Lieutenant?
00:02:48You can't see it from the shore.
00:02:51It's back in the hills, at the head of that gorge, just hidden in the cliff.
00:02:54How fitting.
00:02:56Might as well have a look at it.
00:02:57Well, they're coming in with a second load of supplies from the plane.
00:03:00Now, let me set right up.
00:03:00Hold your headway.
00:03:09You can approach.
00:03:12Hey, sit down in there.
00:03:18Well, get him up.
00:03:20I see him.
00:03:20He's on the bottom.
00:03:21What's the ball up there?
00:03:42God, help us.
00:03:46Cover it.
00:03:51You know, I wish I'd get back.
00:03:59I don't like being out here all alone with old Tate's rigor mortis.
00:04:02Sam, how did a nervous guy like you ever get involved in demolitions work?
00:04:06Nervous?
00:04:06What do you mean nervous?
00:04:07I'm not nervous.
00:04:08It's a little high-strung, that's all.
00:04:10Come on, help me get these pineapples inside.
00:04:12You know, I don't know what we're going to use these for out here anyway.
00:04:15That's just a practice pitching for those babies out there.
00:04:21He took his head off.
00:04:31His head?
00:04:32I'm afraid so.
00:04:34We're going to take him back to Andy Weetok for burial.
00:04:36I hope that man's death is not an omen of things to come.
00:04:40Frankly, doctor, I wouldn't care to stay here with you.
00:04:43But if you run into trouble or you need extra supplies,
00:04:45you can always reach the base by radio.
00:04:48And as of this rotten weather, let us get back to the base at all.
00:04:51Something in the air is wrong.
00:04:54Can you tell me what it is, lieutenant?
00:04:56I don't know, sir.
00:04:58Maybe it's because there's no sound.
00:05:00No animal noises of any kind.
00:05:02Well, it looks like we got the dynamite by mistake.
00:05:18It's like it.
00:05:19I'll cart it back down to the beach.
00:05:24Oh, excuse me, doctor.
00:05:25That's quite all right.
00:05:26Just call me Marty.
00:05:26Okay, Marty.
00:05:30You know, the Navy boys really fixed this place up.
00:05:33I'm almost going to enjoy being here.
00:05:35Yeah, you never think it was a complete wreck a few months ago.
00:05:37If you want to see a wreck, take a look at my back.
00:05:42Yeah, it'll be dark in a few minutes.
00:05:44Want to come watch the takeoff?
00:05:45I'd like to.
00:05:46I'll get the others.
00:05:47Lieutenant, I don't want to annoy you again,
00:05:49but nothing was left.
00:05:51Not a hair, no fingernail clipping.
00:05:52Only Maclean's journal.
00:05:54Well, that's all, doctor.
00:05:55That they are dead, I can't believe possible.
00:05:57But to vanish from the face of the earth.
00:06:00No.
00:06:01The Navy thinks they were all at sea
00:06:02in their small boat when the typhoon hit.
00:06:04Lost with all hands is an old story.
00:06:06Yes, but...
00:06:19The Navy thinks they were all at sea and they're all at sea and they're all at sea.
00:06:49Lost with all hands.
00:07:00Lost with bacteria.
00:07:03Everybody okay?
00:07:05Yeah, it looks that way.
00:07:07You okay, Mac?
00:07:08Yeah, it's nothing to getting off.
00:07:09This old pile won't cure.
00:07:19One month, one month, no more, oui, oui.
00:07:22We'll watch you from the cliffs.
00:07:24Au revoir.
00:07:32Did you hear those sounds just before the quake?
00:07:34What sounds, mon ami?
00:07:36The deeper booming and rumbling?
00:07:38No, I'm afraid not.
00:07:40Dr. Carson means the explosions.
00:07:42We should get up to the cliffs.
00:07:49Hey, Hank, you're a scientist.
00:07:51How come they need a demo team like us on the sun to dirt?
00:07:53I'm no scientist.
00:07:55I'm a technician and a handyman.
00:07:57So you still don't know what's going on.
00:07:59Well, you remember that first big H-bomb test?
00:08:02The one that blew U-Jalap Island right out of the ocean?
00:08:05Who forgets that?
00:08:06A tremendous amount of the radioactive fallout came this way.
00:08:09A great seething, burning cloud of it sank into this area,
00:08:13blanketing the island with hot ashes and radioactive seawater.
00:08:16Dr. Weigand's group is here to study fallout effects at their worst.
00:08:20Dr. James Carson is a geologist.
00:08:22He'll try to learn what's happening to the soil.
00:08:24The botanist, Jules Devereaux,
00:08:26will examine all the plant life for radiation poisoning.
00:08:29Martha Hunter and Dale Brewer are biologists.
00:08:31He works on land animalism while she takes care of the seafood.
00:08:34Dr. Carl Weigand is a nuclear physicist.
00:08:36He'll collect their findings and relate them to the present theories
00:08:39on the effects of too much radiation.
00:08:41We blow up mountains for the geologist Carson.
00:08:44But this is the second bunch of brains to come out here.
00:08:47What happened to the first?
00:08:48They were here.
00:08:50Then the storm hit.
00:08:51And then we're gone.
00:08:53That's all anybody knows.
00:08:54Doesn't anybody wonder?
00:08:56Everybody wonders.
00:08:57They just don't like to talk about it.
00:08:59Come on, we'll miss the takeoff.
00:09:14Hank, get to the radio.
00:09:15Hank, get to the radio.
00:09:21There's something.
00:09:23It's a commercial station.
00:09:24Probably Vanilla or Samoa.
00:09:25It's all from beyond the area of disturbance.
00:09:29I don't get a thing on the Navy bands.
00:09:30Keep trying.
00:09:31All those men killed.
00:09:32We can't even send word through this storm.
00:09:33The Navy will send a search plane, honey.
00:09:34No.
00:09:35The Navy will assume that Lieutenant Quinlan
00:09:36is not going to die.
00:09:37No.
00:09:38The Navy will assume that Lieutenant Quinlan
00:09:39is not going to die.
00:09:40There's something.
00:09:41There's something.
00:09:42It's a commercial station.
00:09:43It's a commercial station.
00:09:44Probably Vanilla or Samoa.
00:09:45It's a commercial station,
00:09:46and it's a commercial station.
00:09:47It's a commercial station,
00:09:48and it's a commercial station.
00:09:49It's a commercial station.
00:09:50And it's a commercial station,
00:09:51and it's a commercial station.
00:09:52It's a commercial station.
00:09:53The Navy will send a search plane, honey.
00:09:55No.
00:09:56The Navy will assume that Lieutenant Quinlan
00:09:58decided to remain here
00:09:59rather than risk the storm.
00:10:01A man of Wheatlock's probably getting
00:10:03as much static as we are.
00:10:04Probably.
00:10:05Which means we can't do anything
00:10:07until conditions improve.
00:10:08So why don't we let Hank keep trying
00:10:10while we begin our own work?
00:10:12We have to go over Maclean's journal sooner or later,
00:10:14so it might as well be now then let us go into the living room
00:10:27thursday march 11th today dr vendia's culture failed to produce any sign of bacteria
00:10:34though left for five days in the open friday march 12th this afternoon professor carter
00:10:40found a large piece of flesh having the same composition as that of the common earthworm
00:10:45but measured 24 inches by eight with this section as a measure the worm-like creature would be more
00:10:52than five feet in length most intriguing is the tissue's consistency it proves impossible to cut
00:10:58knives passing through the flesh leaving no mark fire was applied to the tissue and the calorie
00:11:04is out the journal ends there
00:11:16it's getting very late why don't we work out tomorrow's schedule and then get some sleep
00:11:21what about that five foot night crawler
00:11:27well excuse me for being so stupid me in that book you're reading we weren't laughing at you hank
00:11:32it's just that mclean didn't really mean to imply that the flesh was from a big worm
00:11:36he said from a worm-like creature you know it might have been a sea worm
00:11:41they've been known to grow much longer than five feet
00:11:43now excuse me for shooting my mouth off but the journal didn't say anything about the sea
00:11:50just talked about worms
00:12:02nothing in my experience leads me towards mclean's
00:12:31worm theory nothing you would know better than i but why i asked did the writer stop in the middle
00:12:38of a sentence yes why unless something really unusual happened i'm sure he would have finished
00:12:44we shall find out i think well jim and i will head down the south valley in the morning
00:12:49you know i haven't seen any insect life since we arrived quiet please
00:13:03so
00:13:13and
00:13:16Just the wind.
00:13:46Just the wind.
00:14:16Just the wind.
00:14:46Just the wind.
00:15:16Just the wind.
00:15:46Just the wind.
00:16:16Just the wind.
00:16:46Just the wind.
00:17:16Well, I did see something move near you.
00:17:19You did?
00:17:20I wonder what it could have been.
00:17:22I don't know.
00:17:23It's just a big black shape moving through the coast.
00:17:26Lion, crabs, and seagulls.
00:17:29Everything else is dead.
00:17:30What's the matter, Carson?
00:17:36Come up the path.
00:17:37We'll meet you.
00:17:39Come up the path.
00:17:40Come on.
00:17:40Hold it.
00:17:43Oh, hold it.
00:17:44Oh, hold it.
00:17:47That rate will drop right off.
00:17:49Oh, what?
00:17:50Come, see for yourself.
00:17:51But only this morning, I came along this path on my way to the beach.
00:18:04And it wasn't there.
00:18:05And it wasn't there.
00:18:05You mean this pit wasn't here before?
00:18:06It has only appeared in the last 20 minutes.
00:18:09And it's at least 50 feet deep.
00:18:11Nothing but land crabs.
00:18:16I want to go down there.
00:18:17No.
00:18:18Why not?
00:18:18You are a geologist.
00:18:19You know that a second disturbance would cause a cave-in that would crush anybody down in the pit.
00:18:23He seems pretty definite, Jim.
00:18:33Is he right about a cave-in?
00:18:34He could be.
00:18:36Assuming this was caused by a disturbance.
00:18:38Why, it's glazed as though it had been fired in a kiln.
00:18:42Summers, you and fellows better put a couple of your lanterns around this pit so as to keep any of us from falling in in the middle of the night.
00:18:49Okay.
00:18:50Come on, honey.
00:18:51Let's go back to the house.
00:18:53Martha.
00:19:06Awake.
00:19:08Martha Hunter.
00:19:10Awake.
00:19:12Awake, Martha.
00:19:15It is MacLain.
00:19:17Awake.
00:19:20MacLain?
00:19:21Martha. Come to me. Help me. Help me.
00:19:40Martha. Martha Hunter. Help me. Help me.
00:19:48Martha. Help me. Help me.
00:19:55Martha. Come to me.
00:20:13Jim, but... I thought...
00:20:15So you heard it too.
00:20:16Yes, it was Orville McLean's voice.
00:20:18He called me as plain as day.
00:20:20Strange, because I only heard him call my name.
00:20:22How could the Navy search the Toll Island and miss a survivor?
00:20:25If he is a survivor.
00:20:27What does that mean? You heard him as well as I?
00:20:29Someone could have been imitating his voice.
00:20:31Who would do that?
00:20:32I don't know, but I do know that McLean's dead.
00:20:34Maybe, maybe not. I'm going to find out for sure.
00:20:37Jim, you're not going down there.
00:20:46Yes, I am.
00:20:47But Carl's against it.
00:20:48He's afraid of cave-ins. I'm not.
00:20:51Keep this on me. I'm out of sight.
00:20:53Jim, you don't know what's down there.
00:20:55What could be other than earth, water and a few land crabs.
00:20:59Jim?
00:21:01Jim?
00:21:02Jim!
00:21:03Jim!
00:21:04Jim!
00:21:19Jim!
00:21:22Jim!
00:21:25I see you.
00:21:41Marty.
00:21:42She has fainted. No more.
00:21:44It's all right, honey. It's all right.
00:21:47Where's Jim?
00:21:49He's in the pit.
00:21:52He went into the pit.
00:21:53I saw the rope goes slack.
00:21:56He must have fallen during the quake.
00:21:59I warned him.
00:22:00Carson, can you hear me?
00:22:03Are you alive?
00:22:04My leg is broken.
00:22:07We are coming for you. Don't try to move.
00:22:11No, Jules.
00:22:11But we must go down to him.
00:22:13Not this way. The rope may be too short.
00:22:15Then how?
00:22:17Through the caves.
00:22:18Great caves to the sea.
00:22:19But how do you know the caves connect with the pit?
00:22:21Gentlemen, for reasons I have guessed, Dr. Carson also,
00:22:27these caves must join the pit.
00:22:29Because the pit was created from below, not from the surface.
00:22:33Dale, take Martha back to the house.
00:22:35The rest of us will look for Dr. Carson.
00:22:42Dale, I'm all right. They'll need you with them.
00:22:44If we can bring Dr. Carson out, two of us are enough.
00:22:47If we can't, the whole army will do us no good.
00:22:49Are you hiding something from us, doctor?
00:22:52A theory, perhaps?
00:22:53Maybe.
00:22:54Come.
00:22:55We must hurry.
00:22:58You all right?
00:23:00Just a little shaky.
00:23:03Let's get back to the house and get some coffee.
00:23:09I thought you were the boogeyman.
00:23:11I thought we heard a girl screaming during the quake.
00:23:13Did part of the cliffs fall away into the sea?
00:23:15Part of them?
00:23:16Well, it was pretty dark where we were,
00:23:17but it looked like the whole island was coming down.
00:23:20The boulders almost crashed just in the tent.
00:23:22The whole island, yes.
00:23:23We must go faster.
00:23:25There is very little time.
00:23:30Little time for what?
00:23:32That is Dr. Wagon's small secret.
00:23:35Let us catch him and find out.
00:23:37Let us catch him and find out.
00:24:07Doctor, why did you try to stop me from throwing that rock?
00:24:13I just don't like to kill anything.
00:24:16Even such ugly creatures as these.
00:24:18Oh, helpless things.
00:24:19Helpless nothing.
00:24:20You ever see a bunch of them start on a wounded marine?
00:24:23They finish them off in five minutes.
00:24:25It's all more reason to get Jim out of that pit.
00:24:27Yes.
00:24:27All the more reason.
00:24:28Now, what do you want with McLean's journal now, honey?
00:24:50I just thought I'd look through it
00:24:51and see what it was Max said
00:24:52about those great caves appearing the sides of the hills.
00:24:56Well, it didn't say much,
00:24:57except that it always happened at night.
00:24:59She was right in here.
00:25:03There it is again.
00:25:04Another quake.
00:25:05No, the other sound.
00:25:06I heard it at the pit.
00:25:07You know, if we both hadn't heard it,
00:25:25I'd swear it's my own imagination.
00:25:33What can it be?
00:25:34I don't know, but I'm going to find out.
00:25:36Now, stay here, mommy.
00:25:37Don't go in there.
00:26:01Put out the lights.
00:26:04There's light ahead.
00:26:09It's coming from the pit.
00:26:11Carson, we are near you.
00:26:12Quiet.
00:26:13Come quickly.
00:26:15He's still alive.
00:26:16So let's get him out of here.
00:26:18We can get him out.
00:26:19But we must move with caution.
00:26:21Why?
00:26:34Do not call to him.
00:26:47Why not, doctor?
00:26:49Blood?
00:26:50Where could he drag himself?
00:26:51We will not find him tonight.
00:26:53We had better return in the morning when there's more light.
00:26:56I don't like the idea of leaving him here all night with a busted leg.
00:26:59How do I?
00:26:59Up the rope.
00:27:00Quickly.
00:27:01You might as well go back through the cave.
00:27:02No, up the rope.
00:27:03Dr. Voyga, you are a great nuclear physicist while I am a simple provincial botanist.
00:27:11But there are things I do not understand.
00:27:14There are many things that I do not understand also, Jules.
00:27:17You had better climb.
00:27:18Up the rope.
00:27:33That's what I was afraid of.
00:27:41It stopped.
00:27:41Whatever it was must have damaged the wiring.
00:27:48Light one of the kerosene lamps, will you, honey?
00:28:11Here's your motive.
00:28:18Food.
00:28:19But not much considering the size of the thing that did all of this.
00:28:27I guess there's no point waiting for the rest to get back.
00:28:30The storm should have led up enough for me to get through to the Navy now.
00:28:33Come on, honey.
00:28:36Oh, Dale.
00:28:41Whatever it was that did this deliberately destroyed the radio.
00:28:48It had to be deliberate.
00:28:50Every piece of wiring has been ripped out and chopped to bits.
00:28:54Look.
00:28:56Every tube has been sliced neatly in half.
00:28:59And it had to reach way inside to do it without wrecking these cabinets.
00:29:07Well, all I can say is, why wasn't I invited to the party?
00:29:11Not funny, eh?
00:29:15Well, that's as it should be.
00:29:18Do you think you can fix it?
00:29:20Fix it?
00:29:21I'll need a whole new outfit from the bottom up.
00:29:23You have parts.
00:29:25Enough to build a new one?
00:29:27I don't know.
00:29:29Why do you suppose it didn't come through the door and get us, Carl?
00:29:32I don't know.
00:29:33I can only guess.
00:29:35It would take considerable power to keep the intruder behind this door.
00:29:38There is power in the lighting in the living room.
00:29:41You mean it's afraid of electricity?
00:29:43I think so.
00:29:44Have you any other ideas?
00:29:47Once upon a time, there was a mountain.
00:29:49Hmm?
00:29:51Yesterday, when we came to this island, there was a mountain out there.
00:29:55Today, there's no mountain.
00:29:56I'm not surprised.
00:30:01You're not surprised at anything, are you, Doctor?
00:30:04I suppose you can tell us what tore off this room last night.
00:30:07No, I cannot tell you that.
00:30:09But I can tell you this.
00:30:14Everything that has happened from the death of the first sailor to the destruction of our radio must be somehow related.
00:30:21They are too far from the normal scheme of things to be separate accidents.
00:30:25If there is a single cause, then that cause is outside of nature as we know it.
00:30:31Yes.
00:30:32That is why I insisted on caution entering the caves.
00:30:36We are unquestionably on the brink of a great discovery.
00:30:40It is not likely that that discovery will be of a pleasant nature.
00:30:44That is the sum of my knowledge.
00:30:47If you need more, I suggest you ask Dr. McLean when next his voice calls in the night.
00:30:52Now, let us again seek Dr. Carson.
00:31:18I don't understand this.
00:31:20We've covered every exit from the base of the pit.
00:31:22Wounded as he was, he couldn't have crawled this far.
00:31:25And yet, still no sign of him.
00:31:27No, we'll be, eh, Carter?
00:31:31No, Ross! Get through to the wall!
00:31:44Somebody to die at weep. Top of my pack, Carl.
00:31:47You, you'll need to turn and get chewed.
00:31:50Come on!
00:31:52Ah!
00:31:53Hello there! Anybody alive?
00:31:59Are you all right?
00:32:00How did you know we were in here?
00:32:01We didn't. We were on the other side of the island.
00:32:04Well, it used to be the other side of the island.
00:32:06Most of us fall into the drink already.
00:32:08So we were in here when we heard you call.
00:32:10Call?
00:32:10We didn't call you. Whose voice did you hear?
00:32:13Well, it sounded like the other guy.
00:32:14You and the fellow fell into the pit.
00:32:16So he is still alive.
00:32:18If we do not move fast, Jules will not be alive.
00:32:20Come, give us a hand.
00:32:31This will help you sleep, Jules.
00:32:34Thank you, Martha.
00:32:37I could use some sleep.
00:32:40Ladies and gentlemen, I would like to present,
00:32:45for your inspection,
00:32:48the only flower for me.
00:33:07Give me two.
00:33:08Give me two.
00:33:09Here's two.
00:33:11And I'll take one.
00:33:14One.
00:33:17I'll bet you ten.
00:33:20Okay, I'll bet you ten.
00:33:22And I'll raise you ten.
00:33:24If you're not careful, you'll raise us both ten feet.
00:33:26What's the matter? Nervous?
00:33:28What do you mean, nervous?
00:33:30Okay, what do you got?
00:33:32Three queens.
00:33:33Well, big deal, so you finally won a hand.
00:33:38I'm still a hundred sticks of dynamite and one wild explosion ahead of you.
00:33:43What's that?
00:33:47Sounds like a kid dragging a stick across a picket fence.
00:33:56We ain't got no picket fence out here.
00:33:58I'm gonna grab a knife out of you.
00:33:59I'm gonna grab a knife out of you.
00:34:00I'm good.
00:34:01I'll grab a knife out of you.
00:34:03Mr. Tobler's!
00:34:04Professor Devereaux, Professor Devereaux, who is there?
00:34:14Simon Ron Phillips and Sam Somers.
00:34:18We found Dr. Carson.
00:34:26Where are you?
00:34:28We're outside. We can take you to Dr. Carson, but you've got to be quiet.
00:34:33Very quiet. Will you come?
00:34:37Yes.
00:34:39Come down the path toward the big pit.
00:34:42We'll meet you there and lead you to Carson.
00:34:45I will be there.
00:35:03It's just a weak point.
00:35:05This will be here, Professor.
00:35:07I'm gonna go.
00:35:09You're on the path.
00:35:11Meadows!
00:35:12Who are all the other?
00:35:13We are right here.
00:35:15I'm going to go.
00:35:17Let me just put this out.
00:35:19Come on.
00:35:21Meadows, Summers!
00:35:25We're right here, Professor.
00:35:52It sounded like Jules.
00:35:55Yes, what is it?
00:35:58I am here.
00:35:59Are you all right?
00:36:00Yes, the pain is less.
00:36:03Keep talking.
00:36:04We thought we heard you cry out.
00:36:06I have been asleep.
00:36:08Perhaps you were talking in your sleep.
00:36:10Ah, yes.
00:36:11Then I hope I did not
00:36:13blemish the reputation of any fair ladies I may have known.
00:36:16You didn't mention any names.
00:36:18I never asked any names.
00:36:20Tell me of this cry you heard.
00:36:22It sounded like you.
00:36:24Like you would have sounded in your death agonies.
00:36:27It could hardly have fit me, Doctor.
00:36:30When I have been here all the time,
00:36:32dreaming of all the things I might learn to do
00:36:35with only my left hand,
00:36:37I dreamed it was fixed with a hook.
00:36:39And when I...
00:36:41Congratulations, Dr. Weiger.
00:36:45Where are you?
00:36:46Where all of you soon will be.
00:36:49I shall be back tomorrow night.
00:36:52Bonsoir.
00:36:53Devarao!
00:36:54Devarao!
00:36:58What does it mean, Doctor?
00:37:01He is dead.
00:37:02But he spoke, Carl.
00:37:04Is this supposed to be a ghost story?
00:37:06No.
00:37:07No, I do not believe in ghosts.
00:37:09We are dealing with a man who is dead,
00:37:12but whose voice and memory live.
00:37:14How this can be, I do not know.
00:37:16But its implications are far more terrible
00:37:18than any ghost could ever be.
00:37:20What happened to their bodies, Carl?
00:37:35They were eaten.
00:37:36Even the bones?
00:37:37The bones are, I think,
00:37:38hidden.
00:37:39Most of the dynamite is gone.
00:37:40Huh?
00:37:41Dynamite?
00:37:42But not for grenades.
00:37:43I don't understand it.
00:37:44I don't understand it.
00:37:45I don't understand it.
00:37:46Well, I may as well pick up what's left.
00:37:47Yes, we shall need them.
00:37:48We shall have to stay away from the beach hereafter.
00:37:50Come, Hank, we still have the radio to repair.
00:37:52Tonight we will wait for Jules to speak to us.
00:38:18Well, it's long after dark.
00:38:28You should have heard him by now.
00:38:31We will hear.
00:38:32Be patient.
00:38:33Good evening, mesame.
00:38:35I am glad you are all still with us.
00:38:38Be not shocked that the weapon speaks.
00:38:40I transmit, so I must be received.
00:38:43Hearken to all things matter,
00:38:46for I may be in them.
00:38:48What do you want?
00:38:50First, I want to reassure you that I am of sound mind,
00:38:53if not of body.
00:38:55Something remarkable has happened to me.
00:38:58I would like all of you to come and see for yourselves.
00:39:02Where are you, Jules?
00:39:03In the caves, at the bottom of Carson's pit.
00:39:07And what about Carson?
00:39:08I'm here too.
00:39:10My leg no longer troubles me.
00:39:12It's all most exhilarating.
00:39:14Will you come?
00:39:15Yes.
00:39:17Wait for us.
00:39:18We'll wait.
00:39:20Let's go.
00:39:21We shall need the equipment.
00:39:26We must go.
00:39:27We have to find out.
00:39:45We are here.
00:39:51Show yourself.
00:39:53Show yourself.
00:39:55Oh
00:40:25I killed it. Yes, by the sheerest luck.
00:40:42Why didn't the grenades hurt it?
00:40:44Remember what the journal said about the worm?
00:40:47Yeah, that a knife passed through it like water.
00:40:51The stone penetrated its brain
00:40:52or motor area.
00:40:55Or whatever keeps the thing alive.
00:40:57I think if we remove the stone, the crab would return to life.
00:41:00Oh, let's just leave it be, huh?
00:41:02We will bury it.
00:41:06If a blade passes through it like a finger through mercury,
00:41:10then like a river of mercury,
00:41:12we should be able to sever a part of it
00:41:14by completely separating it from the rest of the body.
00:41:20Firstly.
00:41:23There.
00:41:23Now we have a specimen.
00:41:27Set your dynamite, Hank.
00:41:30Do you have any theories, Doctor?
00:41:32Perhaps.
00:41:34All I can tell you now is that this is a male land crab,
00:41:37which you as a biologist will know better than I.
00:41:39Yes, Carl, I know
00:41:41the species appears to be that of an ordinary land crab,
00:41:44but...
00:41:44You have destroyed McClain and all of his party.
00:42:06You have destroyed them and tried to destroy me.
00:42:10This, my friends, was one great mistake.
00:42:24Well, Doctor?
00:42:25Oh, this is ridiculous.
00:42:28Molecular structure of this crab is entirely disrupted.
00:42:31There is no cohesion between the atoms.
00:42:34I don't understand.
00:42:36Nor do I.
00:42:37Apparently we have one of those biological freaks
00:42:41resulting from an overdose of radiation poisoning.
00:42:44The way to explain it is, look, electricity.
00:42:48The free electron in the copper atom breaks off
00:42:51to circle the next atom, taking the charge along the wire.
00:42:53Do you follow me, Hank?
00:42:56I think so.
00:42:58The free electrons jump from atom to atom
00:43:00along the copper at the speed of light.
00:43:02I remember that from high school.
00:43:04Yes, atom to atom.
00:43:06Well, something like that has happened to our crab.
00:43:08But instead of free electrons,
00:43:10the crab has free atoms,
00:43:12all disconnected.
00:43:16It's like a mass of liquid
00:43:18with a permanent shape.
00:43:23Any matter, therefore, that the crab eats
00:43:25will be assimilated in its body of solid energy,
00:43:29becoming part of the crab.
00:43:30Like the bodies of the dead men?
00:43:32Yes.
00:43:33And their brain tissue,
00:43:35which, after all, is nothing more than a storage house
00:43:37for electrical impulses.
00:43:39That means that the crab can eat his victim's brain,
00:43:42absorbing his mind intact and working.
00:43:44It's as good a theory as any other
00:43:45to explain what's happened.
00:43:47But, Doctor, that theory doesn't explain
00:43:48why Jules and Carson's minds have turned against us.
00:43:51Preservation of the species.
00:43:53Once they were men,
00:43:55now they're land crabs.
00:43:57Okay, Professor.
00:43:58How are the crabs blowing up the island?
00:44:00I am not sure.
00:44:01But imagine they are able to send out
00:44:03arcs of heat.
00:44:04They are pecked with it.
00:44:05The sides of the pit were glazed,
00:44:06as if the rock were melted.
00:44:08They can melt and fuse parts of the caverns,
00:44:10explode the materials contained,
00:44:12and bring about the slides.
00:44:14Why?
00:44:15To get at us, of course.
00:44:17Looks like we're on the verge
00:44:18of a blessed event.
00:44:19What's that?
00:44:20What's that?
00:44:21Or is this the one you killed?
00:44:23No, it is still alive.
00:44:25We did not kill it.
00:44:26Notice the belt of yellow fatter
00:44:27on the base of the shell?
00:44:29It would indicate that she's
00:44:30in a very delicate condition
00:44:31and pretty close, too.
00:44:32I, for one,
00:44:33should not like to be around
00:44:34to hear the patter
00:44:34of so many tiny feet.
00:44:36And we've got to kill it.
00:44:37Kill it?
00:44:38It's easier said than done, Hank.
00:44:40Now, wait.
00:44:41This needs some thought.
00:44:42Doctor,
00:44:42you're not going to suggest
00:44:43that we save it for science.
00:44:45that would be suicide.
00:44:47No, thank you, Martha.
00:44:48I have no ambition
00:44:49toward becoming a mad scientist.
00:44:51But I do think
00:44:52we ought to try
00:44:52and capture the thing.
00:44:54Would you not like
00:44:54to examine a live specimen?
00:44:56Certainly I would.
00:44:58But I had a chance
00:44:59to see how the specimen
00:45:00examined the lab wall
00:45:01last night.
00:45:02Hey, take a look at this.
00:45:09You said something
00:45:09about the crab
00:45:10being afraid of electricity, doctor.
00:45:13Let's find out.
00:45:15Ashes.
00:45:22The electricity destroyed
00:45:23the leg in less than a second.
00:45:24That proves that the crab
00:45:25is negatively charged.
00:45:27Yes.
00:45:28Then, Hank,
00:45:28you must create a trap
00:45:29of positive energy.
00:45:34Ha!
00:45:35It works!
00:45:37Sure it does, doctor.
00:45:38It's easier to build
00:45:39in a model airplane.
00:45:40The charge must be
00:45:41just strong enough
00:45:42to de-energize the crab.
00:45:43Long enough for us
00:45:44to remove the claws
00:45:45and cage it.
00:45:46But not strong enough
00:45:47to kill the thing.
00:45:48That's fine, Carl,
00:45:49but how do we get
00:45:49the crab to step into it?
00:45:51Apparently the creature
00:45:52sleeps by daytime.
00:45:54We must take the ark
00:45:56and place it in one
00:45:56of the well-traveled cave roots.
00:45:58He has eight legs
00:45:59with which you step
00:46:00on the plate.
00:46:01I am sure he will manage.
00:46:03Yes, but you'd better
00:46:03select a new approach
00:46:04to the cave.
00:46:05The beach entrance
00:46:06is completely underwater
00:46:07and the pit is...
00:46:08He is using the dynamite.
00:46:15We must hurry.
00:46:22You've already lowered
00:46:23the electric eyes
00:46:24into the cave?
00:46:25Yes, you must place them
00:46:26either side of one
00:46:27of the upper caves.
00:46:28The lower caverns
00:46:29will be flooded by now.
00:46:30Use the underwater channels
00:46:31to the ocean
00:46:32as you escape.
00:46:33We'll try to attract
00:46:34his attention from up here.
00:46:35Take care, honey.
00:47:01I might as well get to work.
00:47:06I'll plant this one
00:47:07and you take the other.
00:47:08All right.
00:47:27It's lonesome in here.
00:47:28It's lonesome everywhere.
00:47:32You know, I bet you
00:47:33can even be lonesome
00:47:34in a crowd.
00:47:36Yeah.
00:47:37Unless, of course,
00:47:38you found that special
00:47:40someone.
00:47:41Have you found him yet?
00:47:44Why do you ask?
00:47:47Because I...
00:47:48Behind that wall!
00:47:58This might be the perfect time
00:48:05to collect some
00:48:05of Dr. Vigand's mercury.
00:48:07If I can't make it back,
00:48:09you get out of here
00:48:10as fast as you can.
00:48:23Get it to the water!
00:48:28The water's out of that tunnel.
00:48:46Dale,
00:48:47they just ran across
00:48:48the bottom of the pit
00:48:49into another cave.
00:48:51Martha!
00:48:53Let's get down
00:48:54to the sea entrance.
00:48:54Let's get down
00:48:56to the sea entrance.
00:48:57Let's get down
00:48:58to the sea entrance.
00:48:59Let's get down
00:49:00to the sea entrance.
00:49:01Let's get down
00:49:02to the sea entrance.
00:49:03Let's get down
00:49:04to the sea entrance.
00:49:05Let's get down
00:49:06to the sea entrance.
00:49:07Let's get down
00:49:08to the sea entrance.
00:49:09Let's get down
00:49:10to the sea entrance.
00:49:11Let's get down
00:49:12to the sea entrance.
00:49:13Let's get down
00:49:14to the sea entrance.
00:49:15Let's get down
00:49:16to the sea entrance.
00:49:17Let's get down
00:49:18to the sea entrance.
00:49:19Let's get down
00:49:20to the sea entrance.
00:49:21Let's get down
00:49:22We'll be back.
00:49:52Oh, my God.
00:50:22It's no good shooting, Dale. The bullets pass through it just like x-rays.
00:50:39So, you have wounded me. I must grow a new claw. Well and good, for I can do it in a day.
00:50:48But will you grow new lives when I have taken yours from you?
00:50:52Oh, my God.
00:50:53Oh, my God.
00:50:55Oh, my God.
00:50:58Oh, my God.
00:50:59Oh, my God.
00:51:01Oh, my God.
00:51:03Oh, my God.
00:51:04Oh, my God.
00:51:06Oh, my God.
00:51:09Oh, my God.
00:51:14You think it'll work now, Hank?
00:51:17It should. Everything's put together. The generator's always worked. All we have to worry about is the strength of our signal. That is, if Dr. Devereaux and Carson will leave us alone long enough to try it out.
00:51:27I'm afraid they won't. Rather than now receiving radio signals, they would prefer to receive us in that great common stomach of theirs.
00:51:35Well, come on, Carl. Let's go out and see what's left of this rock.
00:51:38I hope there is still something left upon which to stand.
00:51:41Well, I guess it's about time I fixed her some food.
00:51:46There used to be ridges there for maybe two miles. Now there is less than half a city block. Soon we will have nowhere to run.
00:52:04That's the idea, isn't it? The path is still there.
00:52:07Yes, Carl. But where does it lead? To the pit and to the sea. At least to the sea. We'll soon find out.
00:52:22Aloha, Malahinis. This is your favorite disc jockey, Pineapple Joe. Listen now to Mokakima and his Molokai boys playing Moana Loa Lava.
00:52:33It's working.
00:52:35Only the receiver, not the transmitter.
00:52:37Well, can you fix it?
00:52:39I don't know.
00:52:40Maybe with this telegraph key and a Morse code setup.
00:52:45Well, we don't have to worry about the pit any longer, Carl.
00:52:47No.
00:52:48Shall we go?
00:52:49Might as well.
00:52:50It's not wasting any time.
00:52:53Sound came from over there.
00:52:55Let's go.
00:52:56Oh, Hank, I don't know what we'd have done without you.
00:52:59Where did you ever learn to fix all these things?
00:53:01In the Navy during the war.
00:53:03And I knocked around a lot in the radio and the TV repair business.
00:53:07You ended up in the South Pacific.
00:53:09Yeah.
00:53:10How did you get here?
00:53:12Well, after Dale and I graduated, we stayed on at the Institute in research.
00:53:17We've been together ever since.
00:53:19Uh-huh.
00:53:20And when his promotion comes through, we'll be making it a lifetime partnership.
00:53:26Yeah.
00:53:27Well, let's go find Carl and Dale and tell them this thing works.
00:53:31All right.
00:53:32Is that not oil?
00:53:33Yes, it is, Carl.
00:53:34I've never heard of oil being found in the Pacific Islands before.
00:53:36The detonations must have opened a source deep in the island.
00:53:38But look, it seems to be coming from two sources.
00:53:40I suggest we trace them.
00:53:41Do you want to follow this oil underground?
00:53:42Yes, Carl.
00:53:43I'm sorry.
00:53:44I'm sorry.
00:53:45I'm sorry.
00:53:46I'm sorry.
00:53:47I'm sorry.
00:53:48I'm sorry.
00:53:49I'm sorry.
00:53:50I'm sorry.
00:53:51I'm sorry.
00:53:52I'm sorry.
00:53:53I'm sorry.
00:53:54I'm sorry.
00:53:55I'm sorry.
00:53:56I'm sorry.
00:53:57I'm sorry.
00:53:58I'm sorry.
00:53:59You want to follow this oil underground?
00:54:01I feel we must.
00:54:02But the crab, Carl.
00:54:03The crab is like a rattlesnake.
00:54:05It can be heard long before it can be seen.
00:54:08I believe we can keep out of its way if we only remain alert.
00:54:11He knows this better than we do.
00:54:13That is why he's trying to reduce this island to a small corner from which we cannot escape.
00:54:18All right.
00:54:19But at the first sound of a rattle, get out of there, huh?
00:54:22All right.
00:54:23Don't worry.
00:54:24Don't worry.
00:54:25You follow this stream and I shall follow the other one.
00:54:28Bye-bye.
00:57:06Michael, get out of here.
00:57:13Keep going.
00:57:18Keep going.
00:57:22Yeah, no.
00:57:23There's a little light for you all back there.
00:57:24Come on.
00:57:25He knows what he's doing.
00:57:33Come on.
00:57:34Come on.
00:57:35Come on.
00:57:37Did you kill it?
00:57:38No.
00:57:39He can avoid the mainstream.
00:57:44Of all of us, I thought Carl would be the one to...
00:57:47That fire won't hold it very long.
00:57:48I don't think it matters much anymore, Hank.
00:57:54Well, just so it holds it long enough for me to get one message away.
00:57:58Just one more SOS.
00:57:59Hank, you got the radio?
00:58:00That was quick thinking, Dale.
00:58:01The pity is that all fires must one day burn out.
00:58:05You getting through, Hank?
00:58:06How should I know I'm not on the other end of this thing?
00:58:07Oh, Hank, you must get through.
00:58:08I know it.
00:58:09It's gone dead.
00:58:10I'm afraid that won't help you, Hank.
00:58:11By the time ships and planes will arrive,
00:58:12come on to the other end of this thing.
00:58:13No more SOS.
00:58:14Hank, do you have any questions?
00:58:15No more SOS.
00:58:16Hank, you got the radio?
00:58:17That was quick thinking, Dale.
00:58:18The pity is that all fires must one day burn out.
00:58:23You getting through, Hank?
00:58:24How should I know I'm not on the other end of this thing?
00:58:25Oh, Hank, you must get through.
00:58:27I know it.
00:58:28It's gone dead.
00:58:31I'm afraid that won't help you, Hank.
00:58:35By the time ships and planes can arrive, this island will have vanished beneath the waves of the sea.
00:58:41But you will not drown. You will be a part of me.
00:58:46And as with McLean, there will be no evidence of how you vanished, or of my existence.
00:58:52We will rest in the caves and plan our assault upon the world of men.
00:59:05Get out of here!
00:59:30Get out of here!
00:59:35The water is rising. Come on, Heim!
01:00:05Hank, you got any fight left?
01:00:15What more? It's only wasted energy.
01:00:19Sure, I got fight left.
01:00:21I don't know what good these will be now, Hank, but I got two grenades left. How about you? I got four. Let's see what's in the toolbox.
01:00:28The craftsman is still working. Here, this looks good.
01:00:44Let's go!
01:00:46Let's go!
01:01:00Let's try and blast it, Hank.
01:01:14Let's go!
01:01:15Let's go!
01:01:16Let's go!
01:01:22Watch it, Hank!
01:01:44Go on!
01:01:58You gotta go!
01:02:02Let's go!
01:02:04He gave his life.
01:02:33I know.
01:02:34He gave his life.
