Island of the Fishmen
★★★½

Watched 10 Oct 2025

This movie had no right being as good as it was.
But, this was a helluvalotta fun!

Some gross fish people and the special effects looked all gross and gooey! Very nicely done!

Sure there is some cheese... but, hell, I thought it was gonna be ALL cheese, ALL night! But this script was actually pretty solid and the plot kept pushing through extremely well.

Even Barbara Bach's terrible Barbara Bach-like acting didn't ruin it!

...and that's saying something!

Yeah, this is has a cool combo of Dr. Moreau and Creature from the Black Lagoon that works solidly. Definitely worth a look!
