Reporters Clark Kent and Lois Lane arrive in the small town of Silsby to witness the drilling of the world’s deepest oil well. The drill, however, has penetrated the underground home of a race of small, furry people who then come to the surface at night to look around. The fact that they glow in the dark scares the townfolk, who form a mob, led by the vicious Luke Benson, intent on killing the strange people. Only Superman has a chance to prevent this tragedy.

Viewing Notes
It’s a surprisingly mature take on the fear of the unfamiliar: rather than fear it, try to understand it first. Admittedly the rest is all rather cheesy B-level cinema, but at least the message is mature.
