Posted it on Youtube, but it was blocked right away….
These full face scuba masks with radio must have been very high end back in 1955.
But I haven’t seen these in other movies of the time. I guess they had some problems or were very expensive.
The scenes are very interesting even I wish the creature would have wrestled a little longer with her….perhaps even grabing for her scuba mask or air hose.
However it was good to have some scuba peril in this one. Surely one of the earliest scenes like that in (movie-) history.
This movie is rated REALLY bad on IMDB, but it actually has some nice scuba and wetsuit scenes!
I found it on my older lists, but have forgotten to make a post for it. A nice blog visitor recommended it to me in the last months, so now you all can enjoy it! Thanks for that!
I made a short(er) version of the video with all the scuba scenes in it. Looks like it can stay on Youtube like that.
You can find a longer cut down below that shows what happens to the girl that stays on the boat that offers some more footage of the wetsuited frogwoman on board as well.

And here is the video (with all the underwater scenes):

And the longer cut on google drive (slightly over 7 minutes):
Ok, it is time that this blog returns to normal, which means I will post on Sundays as usual and the VIP club will continue next month as well.
My last post was about a scene from the ’50s and now we make a huge time jump to a movie from 2019 that was just released!
I just watched this new movie yesterday and wanna post about it today.
In this horror movie, we have a young female scientist who also is a scuba diver. She is on board a large fish trawler to study.
After an incident, she gets ready to dive to research a creature that actually has stopped the ship and has some sort of tentacles that grip onto the hull.

Well, sadly she sticks to her word and this is her only scuba scene in the movie.
Near the ending, she puts on her wetsuit again and has some underwater and surface scenes.
For my taste, the scene isn’t of great interest and there is no real peril or action involved. But I guess some of you might like it.
Is it just me or do the bubbles that ascend from her regulator at the end….look like CGI? Weird….
In my version, one of the tentacles would hold onto her leg and another one would attack her.
She would manage to evade the hit to her face but her air hose would be damaged and spewing bubbles…. 😉
After some intense struggle, she would escape to the surface.
If you visited my other blog Maskripper the last days you saw one scene from this movie already. But the movie has another scene that fits well into this blog!
A frogwoman goes diving as suddenly….a underwater creature appears and starts chasing her… can she survive? Can she escape?
