Manfish (1956)
* (out of 4)
Incredibly boring film from director W. Lee Wilder who also gave us equally bad films like Killers from Space, The Snow Creature and The Man Without a Body. Based loosely on two stories by Poe, a Captain goes out searching for a sunken treasure but this leads to murder. The underwater scenes are nicely done but everything else is downright boring without the least bit of life in it. At one point I thought I was at least an hour into the film so I checked my counter and it was just the twenty-minute mark. Lon Chaney, Jr. co-stars but doesn't have much to do. The underwater scenes are nice but that's about it.
