Anyone seen the "Flesheaters"?

There was a black and white movie a saw in the 1970s entitled "Flesheaters" about these shiny globules that, well, eat flesh. Part of it involves some characters being stranded on an island with the sea around them teeming with flesheaters. A memorable scene is a dude being given a drink with a flesh eater in it, which proceeds to eat his stomache from the inside. I can't find this flick anywhere. Has anyone seen it? Is it available on VHS/DVD? Does it go by a different name these days? Thanks and best wishes.

You forgot that the bad scientist is an escape nazi (boy, that's original) or the inane fact that the beasties eat their way through flesh but are killed by blood. (?)  I do remember the beatnik killed with the doctored cocktail, though, and I haven't seen that movie in thirty years.

I don't think this ever came out in an official release.  Somebody's selling a bootleg on Ebay for $20, but buyer beware, as always.

This is one of my childhood favorites. Probably seen this one 3 times on TV in the
70's. Would love to find or see it again.

Thanks for the info, Ken. Hope I can track down a copy for my bad movie collection!
