I had not heard about 1977 Italian this film before just reading a description with regard to the soundtrack that recently been re-issued on vinyl. From the record dealers at Weirdo records:
"Soundtrack to an Italian mondo movie that reconstructs shark attacks & other dangerous undersea adventures. Of course many of these scenes star topless girls instead of the local shell-gatherers and coral-pickers. There's even a stripper who uses a moray eel to get her clothes off. Sounds range from lush hammond lounge to smooth foreboding funk, and yeah, they manage to rip off the Jaws soundtrack a little too. Perfect on all fronts, then."
Yes! It does sounds like pretty much the perfect film to me. Anyone know of a release?

Here´s a piece of music from it:

Some more serching revealed that this tasty title apparently was released in Italy by Domovideo. If anyone have this tape i´d love to get a dvdr of the film!
I doubt that an English version exists, but wouldn´t mind to be proven wrong on that....

Hey Weirdo records! I've actually been to the store multiple times in Cambridge, MA! Crazy to see a mention of this obscure store here on cinehound!

Magnus, are you from Massachusetts? :hello!:

Haha, cool! No not at all, i´m from the other side of the Atlantic. But i do buy some records from time to time from the Weirdo store, nice people, good prices, cheap postage, lovely descriptions (as seen in this case) and some wild and wonderful records! I sound like a used car salesman, but it´s true...
