Brannigan is the captain of the turtle-hunting ship \"Manfish\" that sails the blue Jamaican waters off Port Royal. On the ocean floor a skeleton holds in its hand a bottle containing half of an 18th-century treasure map - a discovery that leads Brannigan to \"The Professor,\" a local character who owns the other half. The map is in code which only the Professor can decipher, forcing the two men to form a hate-filled  partnership. The pirate treasure is finally unearthed, resulting in treachery, crime and macabre punishment.Adapted  from two Edgar Allan Poe masterworks (\"The Gold-Bug\" and \"The Tell-tale Heart\") and shot on location in the Caribbean, Manfish is a suspenseful tale enhanced by vivid underwater photography, lush locales. Lon Chaney Jr. delivers a sympathetic Lennie-like performance as \"Swede,\" a gentle giant whose one love is the \"Manfish\" on which he serves as mate. - Tom WeaverWetbacks (1956, B\u0026amp;W, 87 minutes): Jim Benson, a down-on-his-luck fishing boat skipper, stranded in a primitive Mexican coastal village Enter the wetback runners who need a boatload of human cargo smuggled into the U.S. They promise Benson an easy job and enough cash to get him back on his feet.
