Zombies of the ocean deeps!

Zombies of Mora Tau (1957) follows a team of deep-sea divers who arrive off the African coast to salvage a diamond-laden shipwreck that sank decades earlier. As they descend, they discover that the sunken ship’s original crew now walkers of the dead—zombie sailors cursed to guard their treasure forever. This horror-adventure blends supernatural dread, underwater suspense, and greed-driven peril in a chilling tale of cursed riches.
