A military flight that transports an experimental atomic bomb suffers technical damage and is forced to dump it in the ocean, so it doesn’t fall into the hands of the enemy. However, the radiation generated by the explosion will transform a sea snake into a gigantic creature. The captain of a ship wrecked by the serpent and an American tourist who lost his best friend, join forces to destroy the monster with the help of a renowned oceanographer. The last film of Galician Amadeo de Ossorio, father of the knight templar zombies (“The Return of the Evil Dead”), who suffered a heart-attack during the filming. A variation of “Jaws'' and “Godzilla” shot in the Portuguese coastside and in Lisbon, where we can see Timothy Bottoms ("The Last Picture Show”) and, for the last time, the classic Hollywood actor, Ray Milland. Considered by specialists as one of the 'best worst movies' ever.
