A boat full of people enters The Bermuda Triangle.
Not for all tastes but if you enjoy 1970s disaster movies you might get a blast out of this. There were a few 70s disaster movies set at sea so you just cant help bunching this up with the others. As a big fan of Forbidden Planet (1956), I was very aware of sound effects from that film being re-used here.
The first half of the movie is better than the second half. In fact, as I type this review, I struggle to remember how the whole thing ended.
Finally, the film looks good. Great looking boat, great looking cast and great looking underwater photography.

A strange object orbits the moonbase.
During my lifetime I must have re-watched this episode about 30 times. In 2024, after giving Space 1999 a rest for a while, I retuned to it. I had the oddest reaction to Ring Around The Moon. I was at the edge of my seat for most of the hour. But I was so baffled as to why I could not remember the ending if I had seen it so many times before?? Then I found out why the ending escaped my memory - a not so good climax.
But whatever, just take in the knockout Eagle effects footage, the outstanding acting of the cast (Landau, Bain, Morse) and the music.
In recent weeks, I have watched a 90 minute online interview with Australian cast member Nick Tate (Alan Carter), he brought the whole 1970s Space 1999 experience to life in modern times. I think that 90 minute interview has given me an even greater bond with Space 1999.

On an island, Mark (Patrick Duffy) finds a two-headed creature (aka stuntman in a suit).
Without question the most memorable episode of the series! And the best! Before this hour we had little hints of the previous underwater series - Voyage to the Bottom of the Sea (1964-68) - but this episode takes things to a new Voyage level - a sea monster!
I should explain that I am not the biggest fan of Patrick Duffy as the Man from Atlantis. He is about as wooden as you can get. Yes, some would say he just seemed that way because he was out of touch with our land based world. Maybe so, but the viewer simply can't watch someone like Duffy every week. Atleast this episode gives us something very different and fun to look at (the sea creature).
