Oceanographer Professor King is somehow involved in triggering underwater radiation that creates one of the most boring creatures around. Little does he know that the government and a square-jawed scientist are already on his case. He is equally clueless about his assistant's (who isn't allowed to enter the lab anyway) plan to sell the secret the movie never bothers to define to "a foreign power". I would gladly say that the monster goes on a rampage, but grappling with two or three people and shoving them out of their rowboats is the best it does manage. The actually killings seem to be done by the underwater death ray anyway, I think. Not that the movies bothers to tell us.
We have here a monster movie/spy film crossover with a script as undramatic and illogical as possible, bad-but-not-funny dialogue, wooden acting, and an uninteresting monster. I am bored now.
