Night Tide (1961)
5/10
Hmm

On leave in a shore side town, Johnny becomes interested in a young dark haired woman.

They meet and he learns that she plays a mermaid in the local carnival.

After strange occurrences, Johnny begins to believe that she may actually be a real mermaid that habitually kills during the cycle of the full moon.

Low budget Roger Corman-ish budget.

Very 60s.

Almost filmed like an extended Twilight Zone episode.Man meets girl. Girl eats men.

It's an interesting period place positioned right smack in the beat generation.

It's worth a watch, but don't expect to be moved all that much. It's really a short story expanded to 90 minutes.
