the monster of piedras blancas (1959)

"We should pay more attention to these legends."
When two mangled corpses in a boat wash up on shore, George Matson (Forrest Lewis) is called in to investigate, and asks Sturges (John Harmon), the lighthouse keeper about the weather conditions, and he gets unnaturally defensive. Meanwhile the storekeeper (Frank Arvidson) keeps talking about the legend of a monster.
With Jeanne Carmen as the teen love interest, and Don Sullivan as her scientist boy friend, this comes across as a land locked version of the Creature From The Black Lagoon.
