Yeah, it "arrives in" every retro theater in the US too. Creature and House Of Wax are the two most often screened classic Universal horror movies, they must be an inexpensive lease.

Here’s a suggestion if you’d like to read more about Julie Adams and The Creature From the Black Lagoon…

There's also this book about the woman who designed The Creature from the Black Lagoon costume. But according to TikiSoo, it's a bore.

WAAAAAAAYY cooler than watching and reading about The Creature from the Black Lagoon is BEING The Creature from the Black Lagoon!

. . . or having The Gill Man in your living room!

If I can't marry Julie Adams I'm gonna die!

That's how I felt way back when I first saw that movie.
