- TriviaSequel to Creature from the Black Lagoon (1954) and Revenge of the Creature (1955), and the only one of the three not made in 3-D.
- GoofsAt one point Dr Borg states that he can tell the exact species of fish from its sonar reflection. This is impossible with the technology shown, as the display only shows a blob of light, without any fine detail.
- Quotes
Dr. Thomas Morgan: ...because we all stand between the jungle and the stars, at a crossroads. I think we better discover what brings out the best in humankind, and what brings out the worst, because it's the stars or the jungle.

"There's Enough Sleep Juice In One Of These Things To Knock Out An Elephant!"...
THE CREATURE WALKS AMONG US has another group of scientists trying to capture the gill man in his storied lagoon. This time, they're led by demented zillionaire, Dr. William Barton (Jeff Morrow) who has big plans for the scaly monster. Among others, Barton has enlisted Dr. Thomas Morgan (Rex Reason) to help in his endeavor. Along for the ride is Barton's beautiful, bored wife, Marcia (Leigh Snowden), who gets her turn at an obligatory "swim scene".
As in the first two films, the humans can't leave well enough alone. After drugging and burning the poor creature, they have to save his life, making an astonishing discovery in the process. Back at Barton's estate -after what feels like a century- the beast must adjust to his new life as a landlubber! An electrified prison is his new "home".
In reality, this installment has more depth than the first two movies. The creature becomes a sympathetic being, a true "fish out of water". Barton, who's neglected wife has been cavorting with Morgan, is driven mad with jealousy and rage. Who is the true "monster"? A great movie with a terrific, totally berserk ending.
P.S.- It's cool to see Morrow and Reason reunited after having starred together in THIS ISLAND EARTH...
