I had never seen this movie before yesterday. I'd seen the video from time to time, but I had not seen the flick, and I was reluctant to pay too much for it....
Marvel's monster boom of the early 70's introduced me in many ways to various details of monsterdom. Despite the peculiarity of the word "zuvembie" as opposed...
Hiya Friends! Issue 3 of "ZATSO?" Magazine goes to the printer next week. This issue begins a multi-part comic serialization of Sir Arthur Conan Doyle's "The...
This has been brought up before, but I recently watched Beast again and I was struck especially by similarities between this classic Harryhausen flick and the...
I always have to laugh when I see the title of this film, Dean. A behemoth, by all rights, would be gigantic. Lore about this film says that the producer...
That backwards technique sounds like what the old comic book editors used to do. Personally I think that style of problem solving for writers makes for some...
Has there ever been a better title for a movie? I can't think of one right off the bat. I first got a chance to see this hoot of sf flick about twenty years...
This is a movie very dear to my heart. It may well have been my first exposure to the work of Ray Harryhausen, and even then very indirectly. Somehow I first...
I just found "Revenge of The Creature" for a few bucks. I was delighted to see it, as it was the only one of the three Gill-Man movies I hadn't seen. I've...
I've never had the chance to see all there of the "Creature" features back to back, Dean, but I did see all three when they were relatively new. I saw...
Much like the Frankenstein films, the Creature movies do a good job of playing with the expectations of the audience. There are certain types of characters and...
Scott Shaw's Oddball Comics column over at Comic Book Resources does a good job of evaluating the Dell comic adaptation of the Gill-Man movie. Check for the...
... This may be old news for the regulars here, but Tomoyuki Tanaka, the producer of the Godzilla series from the first film thru to the 90's entries, says he...
It may be old news but I didn't know that. Thanks muchly for the info. So the Beast and Godzilla are directly linked; that sure makes the recent American...
I enjoyed The Giant Claw yesterday. Jeff Morrow's smart mouth makes this one a true oddity. Most all the characters are very irritable in this one for some...
... in ... flick ... in ... Is ... To tell the truth, Dean, while I remember the Giant Claw itself fairly well, I don't recall a thing about the background...
You recall correctly. The "giant buzzard" is ludicrous looking. I'm amazed that they thought this critter would frighten anyone. The end of the movie with the...
I was reading some article (in an old Atlas-Seaboard monster magazine I think)about "The Day the Earth Stood Still" and it made reference to the fact that in...
Sorry, Dean, I find this message mysterious because I don't understand your last sentence. The design of Gort is classic. I don't know if you've ever noticed...
That last sentence should read "Thank goodness "Klaatu" was NOT changed to "Sprout". No wonder it made no sense (maybe it still doesn't). I hadn't connected...
I made a special trip to see this sci-fi epic, and I can't say I'm sorry, but the movie didn't blow me away as I expected. More after some spoilers... S P O I ...
Sounds more like something to rent than go to see in a theatre, Dean. I haven't been entice to see this film from the saturation ads on television, so I'll...
Dean, I've seen 'The Slime People' a few times on television but either never had the opportunity to see it in a theater or passed it by. I don't recall the...
I have no idea what that means, outside of a gimmick to make the poster appear somewhat interactive. The Slime People is a movie I saw when I was very young. I...
I've added it to the Links page, but here is a functional link to this great site for poster images: http://www.scifi-movies.com/english/index.htm Enjoy! Dean...
I remember the movie, Dean, but not the poster. I saw this turkey when I was fourteen or fifteen at a drive-in movie along with a more forgetable film. My...
I put this one in the "So Bad It's Good" category. The movie is fun to watch purely for the amateur quality of much of the acting and the production. I agree...
Hey everyone! TCM will be showing a restored version of Fritz Lang's silent classic from 1927, "Metropolis"!! Also, they are showing two Universal classics: ...
... Thanks for the tip on 'Metropolis', which I don't think I've seen in a good twenty years. I do remember renting a colorizer version that had a horribly...
Hi everyone! I'm sorry but I missed listing some Universal Classics airing this month on TCM! Here are more: Creature From the Black Lagoon: May 9 4:30am...
