The Amphibian - Patrick Duffy lives?


Remember The Man from Atlantis starring a young Patrick Duffy? This has nothing to do with that.

There is a Russian novel from 1928 called "The Amphibian" It was adapted in a film called Amphibian Man back in 1962, but is now hitting the headliens once more with an announcement that production company Stone Village has acquired the film and publishing rights to the story. The plot is as follows "American surgeon living in the Amazon who gives his son shark gills to survive a fatal respiratory disease. The young man's underwater life is complicated when he saves a local fisherman's daughter from a shark attack and romantic feelings surface between them."

It sounds kind of cool yet corny in a B-Movie kind of way.

Discuss in the forum.
