“I can tell you something about this place. The boys around here call it ‘The Black Lagoon’ – a paradise. Only they say nobody has ever come back to prove it.”
-Lucas (Nestor Paiva), Creature from the Black Lagoon (1954)

Nobody Move! 
John D.:
This is one of my FAVORITE Universal monster flicks…the second flick (Revenge of the Creature) wasn’t bad (had a cameo by a YOUNG Clint Eastwood, too), and the third flick (The Creature Walks Among Us)k…not that great, but does go full-circle, as it were, and the creature’s fate is questionable.
The original is the BEST of the three, and stuntman Ricou Browning did a fantastic job swimming about as “the creature” in that marvelous suit. He’s STILL alive too!
Browning also directed the underwater scenes in Thunderball…not too shabby, huh?
Very good quote AND movie.
Have a great weekend.
Stay safe (and avoid any gill-men) out there, boss.
