David works at an aquarium in California , but more recently he has been a guest at Carl's institute in Brazil to study lungfish.
David persuades his boss, the financially minded Dr. Mark Williams, to fund a return expedition to the Amazon to look for the remainder of the skeleton.
Soon after Carl leaves camp, a piscine amphibious humanoid , a living member of the same species from which the fossil originated, becomes curious about the expedition's camp.
When its sudden appearance frightens the assistants, they panic and attack, and in response, the enraged Creature kills them both. The group goes aboard the tramp steamer Rita , captained by crusty Lucas.
Edwin Thompson. When they arrive at the camp, they discover Carl's assistants have been killed while he was away.
Lucas suggests it was likely done by a jaguar , but the others are unsure. A further excavation of the area where Carl found the fossil turns up nothing.
Mark is ready to give up the search, but David suggests that perhaps thousands of years ago the part of the embankment containing the rest of the skeleton fell into the water and was washed downriver, broken up by the current.
Carl says the tributary empties into a lagoon. Lucas calls it the "Black Lagoon", a paradise from which no one has ever returned.
The scientists decide to risk it, unaware that the amphibious "Gill-man" that killed Carl's assistants has been watching them. Taking notice of the beautiful Kay, the creature follows the Rita all the way downriver to the Black Lagoon.
Once the expedition arrives, David and Mark go diving to collect rock samples from the lagoon floor.
After they return, Kay goes swimming and is stalked underwater by the Gill-man, who then gets briefly caught in one of the ship's drag lines.
Although it escapes, the Creature leaves a claw behind in the net, revealing its existence. Subsequent encounters with the Gill-man claim the lives of Lucas's crew members, before the Creature is captured and locked in a cage aboard the Rita.
It escapes during the night, attacking Edwin, who was guarding it. Kay smashes the Creature with a lantern, driving it off, but Edwin is severely injured.
Following this incident, David decides they should return to civilization. Mark, obsessed with capturing or killing the Creature, objects.
As the Rita tries to leave, they find the Gill-man has blocked the lagoon's entrance with fallen logs. While the others attempt to remove the logs, Mark is mauled to death while trying to capture the Creature single-handed under water.
The Gill-man then abducts Kay and takes her to its cavern lair. David, Lucas and Carl chase after the Creature and Kay is ultimately rescued. The Creature is riddled with bullets before retreating to the lagoon, where its body sinks into the watery depths.
Producer William Alland was attending a dinner party during the filming of Citizen Kane in which he played the reporter Thompson when Mexican cinematographer Gabriel Figueroa told him about the myth of a race of half-fish, half-human creatures in the Amazon River.
Alland wrote story notes titled "The Sea Monster" 10 years later, using Beauty and the Beast as inspiration. Following the success of the 3D film House of Wax in , Jack Arnold was hired to direct the film in the same format.
The designer of the approved Gill-man was Disney animator Milicent Patrick , though her role was deliberately downplayed by make-up artist Bud Westmore , who for half a century received sole credit for the creature's conception.
Ben Chapman portrayed the Gill-man for the majority of the scenes shot at Universal City, California. Many of the on-water scenes were filmed at Rice Creek near Palatka, Florida.
The costume made sitting impossible for Chapman for the 14 hours of each day that he wore it and it overheated easily. Due to these difficulties, Chapman often stayed in the studio's back-lot lake, frequently requesting to be hosed down.
He also could not see very well while wearing the headpiece, which caused him to scrape Julie Adams' head against the wall when carrying her in the grotto scenes.
Ricou Browning played the Gill-man in the underwater shots, which were filmed by the second unit in Wakulla Springs , Florida.
Leonard Maltin awarded the film three out of a possible four stars, writing, "Archetypal '50s monster movie has been copied so often that some of the edge is gone, but Walter Harris , using the pseudonym "Carl Dreadstone", novelized the creature in a mass market paperback , part of a short-lived series of books based on the classic Universal horror films.
This they accomplish in the first 10 minutes. The Gill Man, understandably, is displeased with this turn of events and so, again by law, runs amok.
Or at least shuffles amok before being presumably but not decisively killed. Making things worse, the once highly-skilled projectionists that were needed to screen 3D films effectively were getting bored and lazy, so the film was often shown out of synch, leading to endless audience complaints.
As a sidenote, I always found it interesting that over half-a-century before the documentary Black Fish , Revenge of the Creature , if inadvertently, illustrated the kind of treatment that can be expected by intelligent marine mammals who are torn away from their natural environments and dropped into the featureless pools of places like SeaWorld.
Despite audience annoyance at sloppy projectionists, Revenge still earned enough to warrant a second sequel, so in the Gill Man returned in his third and final film, The Creature Walks Among Us.
The film was directed by the mostly untested John Sherwood, who would later direct The Monolith Monsters from an unused Arnold script. Despite all the standard crowd-pleasing horror trappings the scaly claw reaching for the bare ankle, etc.
Then one day along comes a big, loud boat puttering into the lagoon, spewing oil in the water and making a terrible racket.
Worse, onboard are a bunch of outsiders and stupid tourists. And what do they do? Throw their cigarette butts in the lagoon, dump chemicals in the water, and just make a damn mess of your home.
Being representatives of Western Civilization, they shoot at you, set you on fire, then go away, leaving you to clean up after them.
Then out of nowhere, here come some more of those human sonsabitches. They just dump a bunch of dynamite into the lagoon and set it off, blasting you into a coma.
Worse, a bunch of stupid tourists gawk at you some more through a window all day long. The Gill-man is soon tracked down by police and again gets shot multiple times, forcing him to flee into the ocean.
He again tries to swim away and supposedly dies from his wounds. After living for a short while in a Florida river, the Gill-man is found again, and after a vicious struggle, is accidentally immolated.
The Gill-man's injuries are so severe that his scales and gills fall off, forcing his captors to perform surgery on him to prevent suffocation.
X-rays on the creature show that he has begun developing a land animal's lung structure, so a tracheotomy is performed, opening an air passage to the lungs, transforming the Gill-man into an air-breathing, nearly human animal.
Dressing him in a suit made of sail cloth, the Gill-man is taken to a California estate, where he is imprisoned within an electric fence.
Though they initially try to integrate the Gill-man into human society, one of its captors frames it for a murder, and the Gill-man ultimately escapes into the ocean.
Producer Gary Ross said in March that the Gill-man's origin would be reinvented, with him being the result of a pharmaceutical corporation polluting the Amazon.
Creature from the Black Lagoon was one of many films featuring the Universal monsters that would have received a reboot as a part of Universal Pictures' Dark Universe.
The series would have brought Universal's monsters into a modern-day setting, beginning with The Mummy Henry Jekyll at Prodigium's base in London and one of the objects has the Gill-man's hand in it.
It's unknown whether the reboot is going forward. The novelization of Creature from the Black Lagoon by Carl Dreadstone offers a completely different origin for the Gill-man, who in this version of the story is a hermaphroditic giant, almost as big as the Rita itself, weighing in at 30 tons.
This Gill-man is both cold-blooded and warm-blooded and also has a long whiplike tail. The gigantic creature is dubbed "AA", for "Advanced Amphibian", by the expedition team members.
After slaying most of the team members, destroying a Sikorsky helicopter, and kidnapping Kay more than once, the Gill-man is killed by the crew of a United States Navy torpedo boat.
In Paul Di Filippo 's novel Time's Black Lagoon , the Gill-man is depicted as descending from a race of extraterrestrials who came to Earth during the Devonian period on a giant spaceship called The Mother.
The Gill-People have the ability to communicate telepathically among themselves and among the human characters. Alphas such as "Fleshmolders", "Mudshapers", and "Fishcallers" are highly telepathic individuals in their tribal communities.
The Gill-man itself is a degenerate member of this race, descended from an individual who explored deep in the ocean and became exposed to archaeobacteria , becoming deformed and insane, driven to infect others with the disease.
Eventually, there were no healthy Gill-People left, and the race's numbers dwindled over the epochs to one individual in the s, which is the one that appears in the original films.
