Treasure of Jamaica Reef, The 1974

Released under a variety of titles, Evil in the Deep is set in Jamaica. Scuba diver Hugo Graham (Stephen Boyd) searches for sunken treasure in the waters of the Caribbean. Ah, but there’s a fly in the ointment: a very big, grey fly, known as a killer shark. Made before Jaws, Evil in the Deep went nowhere until its late-1970s re-release–at which point its producers were accused of trying to rip off the Spielberg film. Others in the cast include Cheryl Stopelmoor (before she became Cheryl Ladd), and Chuck Woolery. Chuck WOOLERY?????
