I thought I had found an undiscovered "fishman" movie, but don't get too excited. The movie in question? 1957's Swamp of the Lost Souls, a Mexican western/horror hybrid that seems to have it all...gothic overtones, missing cadavers, dancing horses (???), a convoluted insurance scam, and yes, a fishman. Sadly, the monster is revealed to be a guy in a costume. Lame. Lost Souls is notable for being an early riff on Creature from the Black Lagoon (and for the fact that it's in color), but it's not worth your time. Back to the drawing board!
