Close Encounters of the Brr Kind Beneath the polar ice, seven submarines have been mysteriously destroyed. The Navy must stem this tide of undersea disasters. They send the fleet's killer sub, the atom-powered Tiger Shark, to the 5,000,000 square miles of Arctic Ocean to neutralize our nation's newest enemy. BATTLE STATIONS BATTLE STATIONS Their adversary is not foreign but alien: an undersea flying saucer which they dub Cyclops. The Tiger Shark rams Cyclops, its bow piercing the saucer's hull, and the two crafts, locked together, sink to the frigid depths. To free their sub, the men of the Tiger Shark must coldly go where no man has gone before: into the saucer. Where the greatest horror awaits.

Universal Studios created the first cinematic universe of monsters--Dracula, Frankenstein, the Mummy and others became household names during the 1930s and 1940s. During the 1950s, more modern monsters were created for the Atomic Age, including one-eyed globs from outer space, mutants from the planet Metaluna, the Creature from the Black Lagoon, and the 100-foot high horror known as Tarantula. This over-the-top history is the definitive retrospective on Universal's horror and science fiction movies of 1951-1955. Standing as a sequel to Tom Weaver, Michael Brunas and John Brunas's Universal Horrors (Second Edition, 2007), it covers eight films: The Strange Door, The Black Castle, It Came from Outer Space, Creature from the Black Lagoon, This Island Earth, Revenge of the Creature, Cult of the Cobra and Tarantula. Each receives a richly detailed critical analysis, day-by-day production history, interviews with filmmakers, release information, an essay on the score, and many photographs, including rare behind-the-scenes shots.
