She Gods of Shark Reef (1958)

A Hawaiian American adventure film directed by Roger Corman.
A pair of brothers are shipwrecked in a storm near an island that has a reef nearby. One of the brothers is a criminal and the other is the captain of the boat that sinks. They find only women on the island who have vague superstitions about sharks and the nearby reef.
This is one of those films where I ask myself why it was made. Being of such low production value and having a name that has nothing to do with the plot, my assumption would be for the small amount of money that would be made by it. Another question brought up is the female island population's form of reproduction. Is it anything like that of the dinosaurs in Jurassic Park? The simple plot was full of holes and only mildly interesting at best. Some of the island women were good looking, but no female anatomy points were earned. The video was super-grainy and the audio was very treble oriented. There was a short sequence involving traditional Hawaiian music and this was probably the best scene in the entire film for that reason. I rate it poor because it's just not worth watching.
