This guy has been toiling in the Larry Blamire patch for a good long while now. I think I saw this film, his first, and it’s follow-up back in the day when Netflix was a DVD rental service. My biggest problem with this, meant to be a campy recreation of a Roger Corman-esque ’50s cheapie, was that it was just a bit too arch, and way too long. This film ran nearly an hour and forty minutes, a good half hour longer than the actual films he was parodying would have. Looking at his more recent stuff, I see the running times have dropped to appropriate levels. Moreover, he’s continued to make them and has presumably gotten better at it. Maybe someday I’ll buy some of them (they are reasonable priced but I wish he had a package rate), but right now my disposable income is a bit close. Still, maybe some of you guys have seen some of these.
