I may have gone overboard
Ok, this is really weird. I was only 4 when this movie was shown on TV, but I have been searching for it for the last 20 years. I used to have dreams about it, even though I didn't remember much of anything except for: the lady with the glowing eyes, the blond guy, the deep blue water, the underground cave, and the giant turtle.
Well here goes the wierd part - I just saw it today for the first time (bought it on Ebay). I realize that it must have struck something really deep in me. Here are some parallels to my life right now: I joined the Navy straight out of high school, I became a Navy Diver, I work a lot underwater, I married an African American women named Duschka (similar to "Erik's" wife in the movie). We divorced. I was recently stationed on a tropical island, surrounded by deep blue water, I met a beautiful brunette named Jenny who I fell in love with. I tought her to dive, and we spent a lot of time underwater together. Now we are married.
I always thought the song attached to this movie was Kenny Roger's "Lady". After I watched the movie, I realized it was a similar song called "Jenny" - the same name as the mysterious dark haired women of the sea.
I didn't really believe in subconcious influence - but maybe there is something to it. I am glad I found this website, because it is good to know I am not alone in my "insanity"!
P.s. I did see sea turtles while I was out on that island!
