Creature From the Black Lagoon

Creature From the Black Lagoon

»rank: 1492

starring: Richard Carlson, Julie Adams, Richard Denning, Antonio Moreno, Nestor Paiva
directed by: Jack Arnold


: :Jack Arnold's horror classic The Creature from the Black Lagoon spawned not one but two iconic images: the web-footed humanoid gill-man with a hankering for women and the leggy, luscious Julia Adams, the object of his desire, swimming the lagoon in a luminous white bathing suit. Not since King Kong has the 'beauty and the beast' theme been portrayed in such sexually charged (though chaste) terms. Arnold turns an effectively B-movie plot--a small expedition up a remote Amazon river captures a prehistoric amphibian ...

Dawn of the Dead

Dawn of the Dead

»rank: 9724

starring: James A. Baffico, Fred Baker (II), Ted Bank, David Crawford, Jesse Del Gre


: :George Romero's 1978 follow-up to his classic Night of the Living Dead is quite terrifying and gory (those zombies do like the taste of living flesh). But in its own way, it is just as comically satiric as the first film in its take on contemporary values. This time, we follow the fortunes of four people who lock themselves inside a shopping mall to get away from the marauding dead and who then immerse themselves in unabashed consumerism, taking what they want from ...

From Dusk Till Dawn

From Dusk Till Dawn

»rank: 12258

starring: Harvey Keitel, George Clooney, Juliette Lewis, Quentin Tarantino, Ernest Liu
directed by: Robert Rodriguez


:Description:lt's nonstop thrills when George Clooney (THE PERFECT ST0RM, THREE KlNGS) and Quentin Tarantino (PULP FlCTl0N) star as the Gecko brothers -- two dangerous outlaws on a wild crime spree! After kidnapping a father (Harvey Keitel -- U-571) and his two kids (including Juliette Lewis -- NATURAL B0RN KlLLERS), the Geckos head south to a seedy Mexican bar to hide out in safety. But when they face the bar's truly notorious clientele, they're forced to team up with their hostages in order to ...

Humanoids From Deep

Humanoids From Deep

»rank: 3868

starring: Doug McClure, Ann Turkel, Vic Morrow, Cindy Weintraub, Anthony Pena
directed by: Barbara Peters, Jimmy T. Murakami


: :The peculiar genius of schlock-king Roger Corman is in full bloom with this extremely gory, pointedly offensive homage to 1950s monster movies (with a generous helping of Alien thrown in for good measure), in which a legion of mutated salmon-men terrorize a small town in their search for unwilling female companionship. (Potential viewers should be warned that this movie goes to great lengths to show what earlier films in this genre had only implied.) A guilty pleasure for exploitation fans with a strong ...

Tales From the Crypt: Bordello of Blood

Tales From the Crypt: Bordello of Blood

»rank: 29890

starring: Dennis Miller, Erika Eleniak, Angie Everhart, John Kassir, Chris Sarandon
directed by: Gilbert Adler


: :Private eye Rafe Guttman (Dennis Miller) is hired by repressed, born-again Katherine (Erika Eleniak) to find her missing bad-boy brother. The trail leads him to a whorehouse run by a thousand-year-old vampire (Angie Everhart) and secretly backed by Katherine's boss, televangelist Jimmy Current (Chris Sarandon, wonderfully insincere and smarmy). Not for the squeamish or the easily offended (but you knew that from the title), Bordello of Blood is pulp horror as it should be--funny, fast, and full of gore. How many movies do ...

Prophecy

Prophecy

»rank: 28934

starring: Talia Shire, Robert Foxworth, Armand Assante, Richard Dysart, Victoria Racimo
directed by: John Frankenheimer


: :John Frankenheimer updates the mutant-monster films of the 1950s with a modern environmental twist in this well-meaning but cliché-ridden late-'70s horror film. Robert Foxworth is so earnest it hurts as a rabble-rousing ghetto doctor who packs up his pregnant wife (Talia Shire) and heads out to the Maine woods to investigate claims of environmental pollution. That's the least of his concerns when a gooey mutant grizzly goes on the rampage and he joins forces with Native American activist Armand Assante (wearing his humorless ...

Plan 9 from Outer Space

Plan 9 from Outer Space

»rank: 28379

starring: Carl Anthony, Bill Ash, John Breckinridge, Conrad Brooks, David De Mering


: :Sometimes a movie achieves such legendary status that it can't quite live up to its reputation. Plan 9 from 0uter Space is not one of these movies. lt is just as magnificently terrible as you've heard. Plan 9 is the story of space aliens who try to conquer the Earth through resurrection of the dead. Psychic Criswell narrates ('Future events such as these will affect you in the future!') as police rush through the cemetery, occasionally clipping the cardboard tombstones in their zeal to ...

Night of the Living Dead -- 30th Anniversary Edition

Night of the Living Dead -- 30th Anniversary Edition

»rank: 58511

starring: Bill 'Chilly Billy' Cardille, Charles Craig (II), Frank Doak, Marilyn Eastman, Jack Givens


: essential video:We can hardly imagine how shocking this film was when it first broke into the film scene in 1968. There's never been anything quite like it again, though there have been numerous pale imitations. Part of the terror lies in the fact that it is shot in such a raw and unadorned fashion that it feels like a home movie, and is all the more authentic because of that. lt draws us into its world gradually, content to establish a merely ...

Robot Monster

Robot Monster

»rank: 66644

starring: George Nader, Gregory Moffett, Claudia Barrett, Selena Royle, John Mylong
directed by: Phil Tucker


: :Phil Tucker's Robot Monster has rightfully earned a place in the pantheon of bad movies over the years, and for good reason--it makes anything done by Ed Wood look like an 0rson Welles masterpiece. Picture, if you will, a gorilla in a diving helmet (the Ro-Man) who wipes out all of the Earth's population except for one family (the Hu-Mans), whom he terrorizes through the rest of the film. From his headquarters in a Bronson Canyon cave, he communicates with his superiors via ...

Some movie-loving wizards must have cast a magic spell on Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban, because it's another grand slam for the Harry Potter franchise. Demonstrating remarkable versatility after the arthouse success of Y Tu Mamá También, director Alfonso Cuarón proves a perfect choice to guide Harry, Hermione, and Ron into treacherous puberty as the now 13-year-old students at Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry face a new and daunting challenge: Sirius Black (Gary Oldman) has escaped from Azkaban prison, and for reasons yet unknown (unless, of course, you've read J.K. Rowling's book, considered by many to be the best in the series), he's after Harry in a bid for revenge. This dark and dangerous mystery drives the action while Harry (the fast-growing Daniel Radcliffe) and his third-year Hogwarts classmates discover the flying hippogriff Buckbeak (a marvelous CGI creature), the benevolent but enigmatic Professor Lupin (David Thewlis), horrifying black-robed Dementors, sneaky Peter Pettigrew (Timothy Spall), and the wonderful advantage of having a Time-Turner just when you need one. The familiar Hogwarts staff returns in fine form (including the delightful Michael Gambon, replacing the late Richard Harris as Dumbledore, and Emma Thompson as the goggle-eyed Sybil Trelawney), and even Julie Christie joins this prestigious production for a brief but welcome cameo. Technically dazzling, fast-paced, and chock-full of Rowling's boundless imagination (loyally adapted by ace screenwriter Steve Kloves), The Prisoner of Azkaban is a Potter-movie classic. --Jeff Shannon
