A crook decides to bump off members of his inept crew and blame their deaths on a legendary sea creature. What he doesn't know is that the creature is real.
This movie has it all! Sexy women, violence, secret agents, lost treasure, and a monster. What more could any viewer want? Or deserve?
The narrater of the film is also the secret agent of the movie. You think James Bond had cool stuff? Well this dude doesn't need Q. He makes his own stuff. He has a radio made of frankfurters and pickles! His insight is deeper than the sea itself. "The sun was beginning to set. I could tell because it was getting dark". That's observationm at it's finest. I'm glad he's on our side!
OK the movie is about escaping Cuba with a strongbox full of gold from the Cuban treasury. The crooks are trying to double-cross the Cubans as they escape. They try to scare the Cubans with stories of a monster, but there is a real monster!!!
The characters in this movie are entertaining and draw you in like a fish on the line. The head crook thinks he is Humprhey Bogart filming a remake of Key Largo. His main squeeze is a stacked blonde with enough sass for five golddiggers. There is another dude who communicates in animal sounds only, and another henchman talks somewhere between Popeye and Froggy from 'Our Gang'.

Thank you Sir.
Thank you...............I think! They actually colorized this turkey? LOL! This should be interesting! Larry
Yes Larry they did and I actually bought it. I prefer to think of it as an Albatross and I just love Corman's sense of humor.
I bought a couple of other colorized gems also. There was a sale. LOL ------------ R
How come I can never find treasures like these? It might be because I buy my movies at the pawn shop now. Can't beat $2.00 a movie, and that includes the tax! Hope you keep putting the colorized movie up here! Larry
Itis called Legend Films and they are having a sale. Legend Films
