Typhoon Treasure is a 1938 Australian adventure film directed by Noel Monkman and starring Campbell Copelin, Gwen Munro, and Joe Valli. It is set in New Guinea although shot on the Great Barrier Reef and the Queensland coast. It was Monkman's first dramatic feature film after several years making documentaries. The film has been called "a tidy, unpretentious adventure melodrama, which was executed with relative competence, had a bit of a run in cinemas (including the UK and USA), then faded from view."
