Latitude Zero (1969)
A Japanese sci-fi/fantasy flick with futuristic submarines, heroes and villains. I found a bootleg DVD of this one for $6 (USD) and took a chance and bought it. Turned out to be top-notch quality video and audio. This movie is different from most Japanese sci-fi/fantasy films that I've seen, because the dialog was originally recorded in English and most of the cast were American actors. It reminded me of some of the 60's TV shows by Irwin Allen like 'Voyage to the Bottom of the Sea' and 'Lost in Space.' Sort of like a cross between those two made into a full-length film. The special effects ranged between very good to goofy but even the ridiculous effects didn't make the story any less entertaining.
