(DVD, Universal)
Minor Universal horror with Lionel Atwill playing the mad doctor who experiments with suspended animation. After accidentally killing his first human experiment he goes incognito on a doomed cruise ship. The film becomes a disaster epic for awhile before a handful of survivors end up on a tropical island. Then it becomes Gilligan's Island with some poor comic relief provided by Una Merkel and Nat Pendleton as Mary Ann and Gilligan. There is some native mumbo jumbo and all the usual tropical island stereotypes until the doctor gets exposed and a plane rescues the rest at the last moment.
