An enjoyable but poorly made monster film that should satisfy those whose expectations are low.

Giant mollusks as monsters? It sounds like perfect MST3K fodder, but the truth is that The Monster That Challenged the World is a fairly nifty '50s treat, with an intelligent script and decent effects (more so given its low budget).

Agreeable retro nonsense.

Agreeable sci-fi flick with unusual monster and location.

As Fifties monster movies go, the 1957 production isn't bad. There are a couple of good shock cuts, a special attention paid to idiosyncratic supporting players, and the usual mix of romance, military efficiency and doomed teenagers.
