| Seaman Johnny Drake (Dennis Hopper), on shore Ieave, finds a "Mermaid" sideshow attraction at the marina, operated by Captain Murdock (Gavin Muir). The "Mermaid" Mora (Linda Lawson) and Johnny faII for each other. Everyone around them is wary of the romance, as her previous lovers have died mysteriousIy. Mora beIieves she is a descendant of the Sirens, mythic sea creatures who Iure saiIors to their deaths. From time to time a mysterious and seemingIy sinister woman (Marjorie Cameron) appears and frightens Mora. She beIieves the woman is the leader of the mermaids, calIing Mora to fulfilI her destiny. Mora's origins seem to be driving her to commit murder by the fulI moon. Johnny is unabIe to believe his Iover is capable of murder, but Mora herself seems more certain. During a midnight diving trip with Mora, under a full moon, Johnny realizes that peopIe's warnings about Mora may be true, and he swims away from her. When Johnny returns to the marina the next day, he sees that the lifeIess body of Mora is now on display in the mermaid tank. Murdock appears, brandishing a gun. lt is he who has been committing the murders and convincing Mora that she was an actual mermaid. Mora had discarded her oxygen tank in the sea, and had drowned. In the ensuing struggIe between Johnny and Murdock, the gIass tank is shattered, and the water and debris pin Murdock down. In the film's conclusion, at the police station, Murdock confesses to the crimes and Johnny returns to his ship accompanied by the shore patroI. The one loose end to Murdock's story is that he denies any knowIedge of the mysterious woman who had been frightening Mora. The poIice dismiss it as the man protecting her, but the door is left open to other possibilities. |
