[1] An American bomber pilot in World War II, Steve Holloway, is rescued by a U.S. Navy flying boat after drifting at sea in a liferaft.

When he awakens from a coma at a military hospital, he tells his doctors how his copilot died when he and three of his crew members, Benny, Andy, and Ed, crashed following a bombing mission.

Myra, Valdra, Tennus, and Cleo reveal that the aircrew’s release was not a friendly act but Sandra's attempt for the indigenous animals and plants to dispose of the four men.

"[5] Critic Dave Sindelar wrote that the film "features Lyle Talbot, a wisecracking kid from Brooklyn, a volcano, and one of those phantom hairdressers hidden in a cave somewhere to keep the women looking their best," and that "the movie [is] delectable to those with a taste for such things, especially if I mention that it throws in a slurpasaur for good measure.
