Description by OLDIES.com:

Four archaeology students deep in the Florida Everglades activate the Death Curse of Tartu when they start making out and go-go dancing on an ancient Indian burial ground. This so annoys Tartu, a Seminole witch doctor dead some 400 years, that his decomposed corpse comes to life, changes into a variety of animals, and promptly starts killing everyone.

Then a mad marine biologist sneaks off to an underwater lab, transforms himself into a mutant half-man, half-jellyfish, and attacks college kids with his Sting of Death! Why? Because he's in love! Really. And with his giant bulbous head, the jellyfish man may very well be the single most hilarious-looking movie monster yet committed to film.

Product Description:

Two campy horror classics from 1966 are released on this special double feature. In DEATH CURSE OF TARTU, a team of archaeologists disturb the burial site of a Seminole witch doctor who proceeds to rise from his grave, mutate into a variety of nasty creatures, and go on a mad murderous spree. In the vaguely similar STING OF DEATH, an insane marine biologist manages to turn himself into a bizarre half-man, half-jellyfish hybrid who falls in love!
