All the Way Boys (1972)
Likable Terence Hill and stocky Bud Spencer team up again as the valiant duo . The agreeable crew makes a new adventure movie plenty of fist-play , action and entertainment . This amusing film deal with ours intimate friends in…
18 Weapons of Kung Fu (1977)
Firstly this has nothing to do with the much better 18 weapons of Kung Fu starring Gordon Liu. I mention this as my Kung Fu Theater presents DVD has a totally misleading picture on the cover, the wrong plot on…
When Dinosaurs Ruled the Earth (1970)
Ray Harryhausen was busy on another project when this film was made, so other animators had to be hired. While the dinosaurs in this follow-up to ‘One Million Years BC’ are excellent, the film sadly leaves a lot to be…
The Return of Count Yorga (1971)
Despite being slain at the end of the first film, Count Yorga is back for more bloodthirsty mayhem! This is a sequel to the first film, but it’s effectively the same story, only a little bit different. It isn’t really…
The Devil Made Me Do It (1974)
Satan sends female demons plus his two sons to Earth to corrupt various people. The movie was directed by Austrian born Norbert Meisel, husband of Nancy Kwan…
War of the Planets (1977)
When I saw “Anno Zero” I was very impressed for what could Italian Cinema do without American effort.It is a b-MOVIE for SF estimators and can be appreciated for what it is. Technically speaking it was outclassed when it was…
Psych-Out (1968)
When I first read the synopsis for Psych-Out, I expected it to be incredibly stupid, but once I watched it I decided otherwise. This film provides a rare look into a time too offen reduced to nostalgic simplicities. A true…
The Raven (1963)
Clever dialogue, gothic scenery, and three old masters of horror make this film a delight to watch…over and over again. It is not very often one gets a chance to see three horror legends…Boris Karloff, Vincent Price, and Peter Lorre(plus…
Children of the Damned (1964)
Although it is often referred to as a sequel to “Village of the Damned”, the plot differs in enough ways to make the claim seriously questionable. No mention is made of the events in the first film. The only real…
The Blob (1988)
The Blob (1988) was a bloody and nasty update to the fifties “classic” horror/science fiction film THE BLOB. I actually prefer the remake (one of the few times you’ll hear me say that) because it covered ground that the original…
You Have To Serve Somebody
But you’re gonna have to serve somebody, yes You’re gonna have to serve somebody Well, it may be the devil or it may be the Lord But you’re gonna have to serve somebody Bob Dylan, Your Going To Have To…
Target Earth (1954)
Since it was co-written by the man behind ROBOT MONSTER (1953), I really wasn’t expecting anything from this one (whose SE DVD I bought dirt-cheap from VCI outright). However, the film proved worthy of some attention though failing to…
Night Creatures (1962)
While Britains’s Hammer film company made their reputation with remakes of the hoary old horror staple potboilers such as their Draculas and their Frankensteins, their true strength was in the creation of relatively small budget genre films that shone with…
Voodoo Woman (1957)
Dismal cheapie from AIP that stars a rough-looking Tom Conway as a mad scientist in the jungle using voodoo to turn women into monsters. It’s a mostly dull affair with a few campy moments that are worth some laughs. But…
Crypt of the Living Dead (1973)
An archaeologist (Andrew Prine) visits Vampire Island to bury his father, who has died under mysterious circumstances. He ignores the warnings of a schoolteacher (Patty Shepard) and, prodded by an historical novelist (Mark Damon), he opens the tomb of the…
Ghidorah, the Three-Headed Monster (1964)
Many fans of Japanese monster movies regard the late 50s/early 60s as the Golden Age,and they are generally right.There is a terrific feel to the Toho Studios films made in that period-imaginative,exciting,fun without generally descending into camp,a good stock company…
The Slime People (1963)
Los Angelos is enclosed by a wall of fog created by inhabitants from in the inner depths of the Earth, whereby they kill all the people they can find(for no known reason) and so that they can control the temperatures….
