Port Sinister (1953), known as Beast of Paradise Isle in the UK is an adventure/science fiction film written by Jack Pollexfen and Aubrey Wisberg and directed by Harold Daniels. The plot synopsis consists of a 17th-century Caribbean city of Port Royal which has been long rumoured to have been visited by pirates rises from the ocean floor.

However, when a scientist goes to investigate the incident—and at the same time the local thugs plan to steal the gold—all are attacked by giant crabs living there.[2]

Pollexfen and Wisberg had already made Captive Women and Sword of Venus for RKO. Port Sinister was filmed at the RKO studios with location work at Palos Verdes California.
