There's been no activity at this group for months. Have we all gone our separate ways? I keep it around because it's full of great images and useful links, but...
Hi there. I used to post my reviews here before posting them on my website and got some interesting feedback. Unfortunately that site is on hold while I build...
Hi there. The Kevin Connor/John Dark Edgar Rice Burroughs adaptations date from 1974-77 while the pastiche Warlords of Atlantis dates from 1978. The JP Simon...
... The Beast of Hollow Mountain at some point. Any comments on these? ... I'd love to read these. I've never seen The Beast of Hollow Mountain, though I've...
Hi there. I'm working on my companion website just now (non-genre) but I shall return to the original Chroma-Noize sometime at the end of April/start of May....
Just finished this four-part 30-year long adaptation of Bram Stoker's great novel, and it was pretty good. The artwork by Dick Giordano is very good, and often...
... Very good & interesting biography of Cohen's life as a Special Feature supplement on the "Target Earth" DVD. Cool movie, which I had never seen or even...
Well kids, I finally got to see the new Spielberg-version of the old Wells chestnut "The War of The Worlds" this past weekend. I was a little leery about...
Went to see "Fantastic Four" Friday afternoon and I was treated to my first viewing of the trailer for Peter Jackson's new KING KONG. I had my doubts (and...
I agree it looks nice, but I was more than a bit taken aback that they showed as much of Kong as they did. I would have thought the bellow alone after the...
I give this movie a solid "B". I found the special effects very special indeed, and I agree there are real moments of tension. My daughter was much impressed,...
... The only "rule" is that SFX takes longer than actual filming, so the early trailers tend to focus more on the stars. In some cases, the effects in a key...
... Dakota and special effects get an A. Irate son gets a D. Tim Robbins was very good but incredibly unnecessary, as was the Gene Barry - Ann Robinson cameos....
... I think that everyone making big-budget, effects-heavy pictures nowadays that feature a character who has a well established past remembers the fiasco of...
Makes "cents"! (Ha!) In fact it's the Godzilla movie that I am thinking of. The trailer for that movie with the Museum guard talking about a T-Rex with a bunch...
... The American G-film was a passable time killer for me, but it simply should not have carried the 'Godzilla' moniker. It truly was Godzilla in name only....
... saving your pennies and lires. Lots of stuff you're gonna want. ... half hour radio show and a jig-saw puzzle. I will forever regret selling a book that I...
My very first Ebay purchase showed up in the mail, and I'm pleased as punch! My mowing is done, and I'm going to spend the afternoon watching the movie "The...
... Dean- I bought the VHS tape of "The Mole People" a few years back when the local MediaPlay was blowing out tapes to enlarge space for their DVD section....
There is still time to order a 2006 50s Sci-Fi/Horror calendar for a Christmas present for your favorite ghoul. Go to the link below for a look at a few of the...
Well the new King Kong flick is almost upon us, and it looks pretty...well.. ahem...average. I'm very disappointed in the casting, but hopefully I'll be...
I want to wish all the membership (even those who might not celebrate the day) a Happy Thanksgiving! I'm off to visit, eat, and help my daughter settle into...
Same to you, Dean and all! Hey, I'm enjoying watching the remastered version of KING KONG which aired earlier this week on TCM!!! Man, if you haven't seen this...
I almost never go to movie when they debut. The crowds, the hassels, etc. But I might just make an exception for King Kong. I've done it for two movies in the...
I saw King Kong last night and overall this movie was a 7.5 to an 8. There was the makings of a classic but just too many scenes that were drawn out and some...
