Monster of the Day #2013

Not a great movie (good B-movie cast, though), but a great poster/video box art.

By the way, the Kino Lorber website is having a big horror DVD/Blu Ray sale with heavily discounted titles. Great stuff and great bad stuff. Check it out.

    I watched this a little over a month ago from a recommendation of several people on this site. Really wanted to love this one but thought it was so-so. The whole small town people are such hypocrites just bored me. And Landau as the government scientist who’s doing the whole PR thing about dumping radioactive waste in the local lake was just odd. Was this supposed to be serious or played for laughs? Just too much social commentary and too little monster. Funny that the monster is pretty cool when it does show up and it’s not bad when it’s actually trying to be a monster movie.

    The only movie I can think of where the monster is attacking a drive-in theater while the monster itself is also attacking somebody on screen. Look carefully and you’ll see the movie playing at the drive-in is actually footage shot for an attack scene the aftermath of which we see later in the ‘true’ narrative!!!

  • I really enjoyed this one. Martin Landau seemed to be having a blast, the monster was neat, the lead was a plank of wood that walked like a man. Not a bad little flick. Not a good one, not a hidden gem, but not bad.

    Then they go with this “Where-are-they-now” bit which would have worked in a comedy, maybe, but not this flick.

    So if it’s supposed to be a B-Horror flick, it’s entertaining time waster. If it’s supposed to be a Comedy, it’s an utter failure, but still an entertaining time waster.
