Featured review
"Plan 9" may be the best-known bad film of all time, but "Devil Monster" is an infinitely worse film. Much of the movie is clearly stock footage taken from a much earlier film. Ludicrous narration tries to tie it all together, but much of this grade-Z shlockfest makes no sense. The big finale fight scene, in which a sailor grapples with the Devil Monster, has the cheapest special effects you have ever seen. A man splashing around in water is superimposed over footage of manta ray. This movie is not for everybody, but lovers of trashy cinema may find it amusing.

Storyline
Did you know
- TriviaA Mexican-American co-production released originally in 1935 as "The Sea Fiend" and "The Great Manta". Eleven years later it was re-edited with more stock nude scenes of topless native women and reissued as "Devil Monster", most likely for use on the adults-only roadshow circuit.
- GoofsIn some scenes the "native" woman are black, in other scenes they're Asian, and in other scenes they're white.
