City Beneath the Sea
(1953)“Fabulous Lost World -- at the Bottom of the Sea!”
Synopsis
Divers Brad and Tony arrive in Jamaica to attempt salvage of the Lady Luck, sunk with all hands and a million in gold. They charter the American Beauty, skippered by attractive Terry, but cannot find the ship. But there's more to the Lady Luck than meets the eye, and undersea skullduggery forms a counterpoint to Brad's romance with Terry, and Tony's with cabaret singer Venita.

“_**Sea adventure in Jamaica with Ryan and Quinn**_ Two American divers (Robert Ryan and Anthony Quinn) get a gig in Jamaica to find a sunken vessel with gold cargo while carousing and seeking out fair ladies (Mala Powers and Suzan Ball). Unfortunately, there are shady characters afoot (George Mathews). Woody Strode has a peripheral role. "City Beneath the Sea" (1953) is an oceanic adventure/thriller that has the look and tone of “Dinosaurus!” (1960), but is thematically similar to "The Deep" (1977), "Into the Blue" (2005), "Into the Blue 2: The Reef" (2009) and "Fool's Gold" (2008). The best of these, believe it or not, is “Into the Blue 2,” which was a direct-to-video release. This one is worthy too if you can acclimate to the early 50’s quaintness. It’s rollicking escapist fare with a buddy film foundation. On the female front, Suzan Ball is reminiscent of a taller Salma Hayek while Mala Powers evokes Susan Hayward. The film runs 1 hour, 27 minutes, and was shot at Universal Studios in Universal City, California. GRADE: B”
