Synopsis:

Screamers (The Island of the Fishmen) (1979)
After their prison ship sinks in the Caribbean, a group of prisoners and a doctor wash ashore on a seemingly deserted island. They soon discover a strange couple, who invite them to stay at their house. While the prisoners try to plan an escape, the doctor does some investigating, and soon finds out just what the pair are really doing, and why the prisoners keep disappearing mysteriously.
The Fishmen and Their Queen (1995)
Two teenagers prowl a devastated landscape, polluted by radioactive waste in search for food. On their quest of survival, they meet Socrates, a man who takes them to an island that seems a far cry away from the urban misery they struggled in. But the two youngsters ignore that the island is ruled by a beautiful but ruthless queen whose slaves are the hideous fishmen.

Screamers (1979)
Aquatic creatures threaten the existence of a mysterious island.
The Fishmen and Their Queen (1995)
Two boys (Giuliano Gensini and Michael Velez) who live in the sewers escape a post-apocalyptic New York ruled by evil Exterminator Warriors. A bewildering array of masked horsemen, laser fire, flamethrowers, and babbling psychos speed by amidst non-stop chatter from the child heroes. After their first companion, a death race road warrior, is shot to pieces, the boys find grizzled, old timer Socrates (Donald Hodson) and his - supposedly supernatural - dog Lampo. A magical book called Destiny leads them on an enchanted voyage to a tropical island, the last unpolluted place left on Earth. The grungy, dystopian city is so depressing, even the viewer feels relieved when we finally reach the kiddie flick part of the movie: palm trees, golden sands and cool, blue waters. Thanks Sergio, what's next? Well, a beautiful, but evil queen (Ramona Badescu) with sorcerous powers and her army of fetching Amazons are after a deformed dwarf in a golden mask. Like you do. The boys team up with jungle girl Selva (Natascia Castrignano) and rescue the dwarf, who turns out to be a prince cursed by the evil queen. Selva's sister, the island's rightful ruler has been transformed into a wooden statue, so the boys set out to break the spell with the aid of those mysterious, heroic, oddly lovable fishmen.
