US lobby cards set of SHE GODS OF SHARK REEF starring Bill Cord and Don Durant. Nice set. It pretty much sums up the movie in a 8 photos. Roger Corman said it was one of his favourites films he directed.
Yes I do. It's basically the same as many PEPLUM movies: men end up in isolated 'lost world' place, here is the South Seas, and a female-only population (Amazons) live and one of the ladies has to be sacrificed to the sharks (The Minotaur, many others). It follows the same template. Movies like COBRA WOMAN and other Maria Montez movies fall under the PEPLUM umbrella. I wrote about this in the last BY THE GODS! magazine. The same thing with WILD WOMEN OF WONGO.

Do you consider this to be a peplum film?
