Now our “colorful” frogwoman goes for another scuba dive with that frogman in black.
But something doesn’t feel right about him! What are his plans?
Can she escape his deadly speargun?

His friendly act falls apart as he points a speargun at her!
He forces her to dive with him!
Can she…..
…survive?

And here is the video:

I decided to delete two short scenes with her father looking for her, but let the other ones in the video as they are kind of important why he is showing up to save her.
–
Well, the scene does have quite some good aspects!
I do like to see him chasing after her and pinning her there where she can’t escape him. Of course, I would have preferred a scuba fight between HER and the bad guy, but with that speargun pointed at her….it was difficult to even start it for her. It is good that she had the courage of trying to escape him, even her chances would have been much better …..in my opinion, if she would have attacked him by surprise then to think she would be able to outswim him.
She was really lucky that he didn’t pull the trigger, he had enough time….but maybe he had some doubts about killing her, or was thinking about the available options for him.
The fight between the frogmen was pretty cool, even it was too short.
What I didn’t like was how passive she was as her father fought with the bad guy. But that is typical behavior for most frogwomen in these old movies/TV shows. 🙁
She could (should) have easily helped her father! As the bad guy was occupied with fighting him she could have ripped his mask off….grabbed the speargun…or…or…..or…..
As you can see there isn’t even an episode guide for this show. Sadly this remake of the classic Sea Hunt show is only available in VHS quality as it was never released on DVD.

What do you think of that scene? Wanna see the 2nd scuba scene from that episode as well?
Time for some vintage scuba action from a rather rare TV show!
This scene is 60 years old and one of the very early scenes with scuba action in it.
Story: The hero is blackmailed by an evil guy to retrieve some nazi treasure from a sunken ship. The villain doesn’t trust the good guy of course and sends a frogwoman(!) down with him.
Preview:
There she is! The evil frogwoman!
They are ready to dive….
….and soon a scuba fight starts!

And here is the video:
–
Well, this scene offers a LOT! But it also has two major problems….
Let’s start with the good aspects. In 1960 it was still pretty unusual for women to dive, and especially to have/film a scuba fight like that. She looks great in the vintage rubber wetsuit!
I like the sneaky movie from the villain to drop the speargun down to her, even that plan failed as she couldn’t catch it. The close combat between them is well done and I love the idea of him tying her up underwater so he could handle the bad guy on the surface one on one.
And…of course….she looks even better as she surfaces and is still wet in that great outfit 🙂
–
Now the two big problems I have with that scene:
a) It is filmed in black and white! Ok, even in 1960 that was still rather a normal procedure. But the whole scene would look sooooo much better/sexier in color!
and
b) the frogwoman turns into a frogMAN underwater! Back in the day, it was (sadly) a rather normal thing that a man would double a woman in an action scene as there were nearly no stuntwomen to do that. However, it is really horrible when that happens!
And here it is verrrry obvious as the evil diver has suddenly no more breasts, and his legs and arms are way too pumped in comparison to the woman on the boat.
–
Damn, I would love to see a remake of this scene! In color and with a frogWOman underwater.
And then a really long struggle before he manages to defeat her and ties her up underwater.

Wanna know from which movie/TV show this was taken? Here you go:
Sorry for not posting on the weekend, I was away most of the time.
But here is a short video with a nice Japanese frogwoman in action. Not underwater but on dry land. Thanks to whoever recommended me this one last January.
Preview:
There she in full gear!
Action!
Let me unzip this for you….

And here is the video:

Well, I must admit, for me, the clip is somehow nice, but nothing special, but I guess it’s a good video for some of the wetsuit folks out there who like to see a woman in action while wearing a wetsuit. Sadly there are no underwater scenes with her at all, otherwise, they would have been in the video ;-).
The change from wetsuit to her “normal” clothes is hilarious. Interesting to see what she was supposed to wear under her wetsuit. Even cowboy boots. And it takes a “little” longer to get out of such a wetsuit 😆
I do like her trick to seduce the guys by slowly opening her wetsuit zipper. What a nice distraction 😉

I’m not sure about the exact episode but the title of the TV show is:
