The Flesh Eaters (1964)

Description

A flight chartered by a petulant film actress and her secretary goes haywire when a storm and engine trouble force their down-on-his-luck pilot to land on a remote island. But this island is inhabited by Prof. Peter Bartell, a scientist with a disturbing past ... and an even more disturbing present. Experimenting on mysterious microbes existing in the waters surrounding the island, Bartell hopes to cultivate them into insatiable monstrosities capable of eating their prey's skin in the blink of an eye! An early entry in the Splatter Film subgenre, The Flesh Eaters boasts a screenplay by comics writer Arnold Drake, co-creator of four-color favorites Doom Patrol, Deadman, and the original Guardians Of The Galaxy.
