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...
The Frederic March version is the best one I think. I like it better than the silent classic even. I have never been able to stumble across a copy in any of...
... better ... I've seen the silent version (two of them actually), but I have never seen the Fredric March version. I've seen clips from it, but I've never...
I've never seen the silent Barrymore version, but would like to. Many fans seem to think that one is the best, with the March version a close second. I've...
I don't care for the Spencer Tracy version either, and I find it too preachy and too predictable. It's almost a sanitized version, which might be why it did...
Hi everyone, I may have mis-read TCM's schedule, so please double check those dates/times on the Universal and other horror and sci-fi classics they are airing...
I don't give two hoots for Spencer Tracey's take on Stevenson's classic character. I agree that the movie is almost too pristine in its tone to do justice to...
Hi Dean, I would agree with that. It just seemed too...I dunno. Not really the feeling of horror that one would expect. More of a lech, sort of. Spencer...
The March version is the one in which they use a first-person camera point of view in the beginning. You see the world from out of the eyes of Dr.Jekyll until...
I missed this one when it first showed on TV, but a couple of weekends back I found it on in the afternoon. An homage to classic giant monster flicks, this...
Sorry, Dean, this is one I've neither seen nor heard about. Most of the elements you describe are familiar but only because so many other big ol' monster...
I've never seen this one. I'm familiar with the images since an old Famous Monsters magazine had a cover featuring the she-monster, but this is one old monster...
... Do you mean the film you're using the poster from as the new group picture, or do you mean a film called "She-Monster"? I'm familiar with "She-Creature"...
You know, I worry about my clarity of mind at times. I've looked at this movie poster a dozen times and I've read "She Monster" for "She Creature" each and...
"The She-Creature is a watchable if not actually good black-and-white B film from the mid-fifties, I would say without using any reference works. It involves a...
Thanks Jon. It does sound like a movie I would like to catch...at least once. "The Astounding She Monster" is the title of the movie I've been confusing with...
I'd never seen this movie before I found it on video. As the existence of this club proves, I have a fascination with movies about giants and whatnot. So...
Dean, 'Dr. Cyclops' had the distinction of being one of the first horror films to be given more than B movie treatment for its use of technicolor. It has a few...
Hi everyone, Just to let you know AMC will be showing: The Day The Earth Stood Still Friday, May 16 (or Sat, May 17) 12:05AM EST Godzilla Vs. Monster Zero...
Thanks for the tips Mark. I happened to catch Monster Zero this morning. I've seen it a few times before, but this one always gets my attention because of the...
Hi everyone, Just a reminder that Sunday night (or early Monday morning, depending on your time zone), TCM will be showing the following: 12 Midnight...
Mark, I caught 'Metropolis' even though I had to stay up later than I would have liked to see it. I think Turner Classic Movies did a wonderful job with the...
Hi Jon, You're welcome, and I'm glad you enjoyed it! I also did, and recorded too for future viewings. I really like the way TCM presents their films, and I...
Hi everyone! TCM will be showing the following classic horror films tonight (Wednesday), EST they will actually begin at midnight on Thursday, May 22. Check...
Hi everyone, Just to let you know, Abbott and Costello Meet Frankenstein will be on AMC Saturday morning (May 24) 4:15AM EST (check times in your area). A...
Maybe it's because I love monsters, but this is the most even movie that I've seen from Abbott and Costello. Most of their movies have some funny bits, but...
I found this poster image the other day. Ain't it a show-stopper! This is apparently for the original Frankenstein by Whale, Clive, and company but you...
