I've just seen this cult classic for the first time. Knowing that the human oddities on display are by and large for real adds a quality of the truly bizarre...
Dean, I lucked out the first time I saw Browning's 'Freaks' and caught it back in '76 or so in a rather nice old theater with a college crowd. I had read about...
I've had some problems with a bad credit history. THis site was able to set me up with credit cards that will inprove my credit rating. They also have some...
It looks like no club is immune to this form of spam. As one of my uncles said at the funeral of another uncle, "I hate to see this sort of thing get started."...
Until I watched it a few days ago, I didn't realise that 'Return to Salem's Lot' was written and directed by Larry Cohen and I didn't known that it had an...
I caught about half (the last half to be sure) of the original 13 Ghosts the other morning on AMC. This is the very first time I've ever seen this notorious...
The opening poster for this group of the movie "The Spider" reminds me to let you all know that a new movie about giant spiders should be opening soon. I just...
Chas, Thanks for the information. I haven't heard of "Eight Legged Freaks" but should it come to my local crackerbox multiplex I'll probably give it a miss and...
Yeh, "Tarantula" was the best! I still remember seeing the newspaper ad as a kid...and I was too scared of what might be in the movie so I never saw it until...
Just an additional bit of trivia: In one of the latest "Entertainment Magazine" pieces about upcoming summer movies, it's revealed that the first working title...
Chas, I think you've hit upon a good idea, and I would include science- fiction, horror, and peculiar films which are apt to get little other promotion. Being...
One odd movie that I've spent a lot of time looking for is "Vampyre" (I think that's the spelling.) I found this movie back in the 80's on a cheap (couple of...
Eight Legged Freaks "NEW" theatrical trailer has been cut and it's better than the two previous teaser trailers! I three quaters of a work print, the CGI work...
What are the 10 Best Monsters of the movies? (I know this question is purely a matter of taste, but I'm interested to learn what everyone prefers.) 10.Gwangi...
Very good choices all, but may I put forward, in no particular order, another ten fearsome faves (each with a reason why)? ****The ants in THEM (Actually, it's...
Howdy Kids! Back from the dead, I am. Here's my picks. PEACE! 10) Gwangi (always loved this guy, and hunted to find the occasional airing when I was a tyke....
I saw the poster for Eight-Legged Freaks the other day, and I must say I am beginning to look forward to this one. A classic giant- monster movie for the...
I probably have what some would consider peculiar tastes, so I'll make no defense for these being "best" films, just ones I enjoy. 10. Werewolves on Wheels...
I got to see this one the other night on AMC. I really liked a lot of it. It wasn't quite as episodic in its composition as House of Frankenstein, and the idea...
<p>HOUSE OF DRACULA may be the last--and least--of Universal's Frankenstein series and the weakest of the monster rallies, but I'm rather fond of it, too....
Thanks to AMC, I was able to finally catch the movie which has graced the club as club pic for months. At least I'm pretty sure this is the one. Bert I. Gordon...
Dean, Without question, THE SPIDER is my favorite Bert Gordon movie. It might even have been good if anyone else had done the special effects, but it has lots...
I'm already a fan of this grasshopper epic. The giant bugs on the two- dimensional images of (I guess) Chicago are a unique solution to the staging of this...
Just bought this flick tonight while perusing the shelves at my local Mediaplay. I hadn't watched it in years. I forgot how good it was. I remembered...
Dean, My favorite sequence in 'Earth vs the Spider' is the one in which the beast is apparently dead and its corpse is in the gymnasium at the high school....
I made the mistake last night of staying up late to watch a film on USA titled "Marabunta," hoping it was an adaption of the classic short story "Larigan...
I have a weakness for Charlton Heston's scene chewing and I've enjoyed The Naked Jungle a couple of times. There is something terribly frightening about the...
Dean, Charlton Heston has made a surprising number of horror/sci-fi films for an actor who was once highly regarded, and he made them when he still had most of...
I saw this modern monster movie just the other day, and all in all I was rather entertained. It ain't a great movie by any stretch of the imagination, but it...
