This one came out of nowhere! Never heard of this one …until a friendly user recommended me a certain movie with his favorite scuba scene. ๐
THANKS a lot! Of course, he got some free months in the VIP club for such a GREAT recommendation!
And well, it is a great find for me and actually a scene for my Hall of Fame here on Frogwoman.
Because it offers an extremely rare ending, but more on that later…
Story: A couple invites another couple on a vacation to their beach house. Things between them are getting …”complicated” and two team up against the other woman.

*EDIT* February 2022: Thanks to a great guy this scene is now available in so MUCH better quality! Thanks for pimping the video quality up BIG time!
Well, isn’t that a great find for lovers of scuba peril/action?
But let’s start with the negative aspects first.
The sound of the bubbles sounds like bad effects to me.
She drowns way too fast, even she is exhausted after the struggle, she shouldn’t drown in a matter of seconds.
I skipped through the movie (Spanish language only) and it has some weird moments (like the ending on the beach). Overly dramatic music and effects.
–
Some weird things/errors I found:
The air hose (of the victim) seems to be leaking a bit (right at the 1st stage) during the fight!
Both the evil attackers wore black wetsuits, while she is wearing a colorful wetsuit. That underlines who are the bad guys here.
They rip off her tank….then a close-up of her…the tank is still there! (editing/continuity mistake)
Of course, she is wearing a weight belt, but it is gone (for no reason) as she ends up on the beach. (continuity mistake)
–
And now to the positive aspects, and there are a lot!
Scuba fights with women are pretty rare (and here we have even 2 involved)! An air hose cut in such a fight scene is even rarer!! And …air hose cut (by an attacker) in such a fight…leading to the death of a frogwoman ….is EXTREMELY rare!!! As a matter of fact, I only know one more scene where that happens.
I love how she really fights against these two. She is focused on not losing her regulator, shielding it with one hand for most of the time, and she fights them off for quite a while!
Such a long struggle scene is very rare as well.

Great fight scene. Both women looked hot in their gear. But is it wrong that I liked the one in the black wetsuit more?
No, her black wetsuit is fantastic. And I think she is younger as the victim (who is over 40?)
According to IMDB data, the victim actress was 48 or 49 years old ๐
Yeah, that fits. Her husband wasn’t so young either.
Especially for that age she put up quite a fight!
Gloria, the victim actress, played by Mariecruz Olivier was born in 1935 (source IMDB) and the movie was shot in 1976 (source Wikipedia) so the she should be around 41 years old.
I love the last scene on where her body washed up on the beach.
I wonder if she was wearing a swimsuit underneath her wetsuit?
Most likely….or a bikini. It isn’t shown in the movie.
This was an interesting one! The fight was a bit unexpected at the start but eventually became pretty obvious. I love how the fight is portrayed as an inevitable death, with the frogwoman being completely dominated by her opponents. Only her focus on her regulator seems to save her.
To me it looked like she got caught in the rigging of her scuba gear after she took it off trying to escape. Unable to swim effectively, she runs out of air and drowns! The twist at the very end was entirely unexpected! Since I couldnโt understand the words, I felt like the woman at the resort had been the one to order the womanโs death, and when she realized who it was, she was horrified at her actions! Still, this was excellent!
Yeah, I only think she drowned way to quick (as I mentioned in the post), but it is a great scene ๐
Love the scene.
Little bit new to me. Especially when cut her air hose. Then removing her scuba tank in the process and they make sure that she drown and wait for it. Usually they leave after cutting or removing the regulator of there victim. But these scene they wait for it and then swim away. Little bit of overkill. But I like the scene. Even she is over power 2 against one she really fight for it. The two divers have difficulty on her. The male diver having trouble even he has help. If I was the guy on that scene I will remove the mask on her. So that she will be confuse. Then go for hose immediately.
By the way love the last scene. When she ran to beach to see her wash on shore. She look great on her wetsuit. I notice when she remove her face mask she has difficulty removing it. Anyway it’s a good scene.
Yeah, ripping of the mask should be move number 1 in such a fight.

These two wanna make sure that she won’t come back from that dive. Evil folks.
Just watched the film, loved the scene of the sexy young lady dancing round in her sexy funky white jumpsuit, while all the other dowdy women just stand around in boring dresses and stare. Itโs a real shame this young woman never zipped herself into that black scuba suit, that would have been an amazing treat for the eyes.
You watched the whole thing? In spanish? Or did you skip to the more interesting scenes ๐ ?
Iโm afraid I donโt speak Spanish, but I had an hour to kill and I have eyes and the ability to skip forward if need be. I would like to see it with subtitles and I was interested to note that two of the characters were gay/ by sexual. Thatโs a little unusual for a film that looks this old. Shame they couldnโt have gone diving together…….. in black wetsuits.
