The Terrornauts

The Terrornauts (1967) starring Simon Oates, Stanley Meadows, Zena Marshall

In short, The Terrornauts looks and feels like a bad 1960’s episode of Dr. Who — which is disappointing, since the first third or so of the film was very promising.

Eegah! (1962) starring Richard Kiel, Arch Hall Jr. Marilyn Manning, Arch Hall Sr.

Eegah! (1962) starring Richard Kiel, Arch Hall Jr., Marilyn Manning, Arch Hall Sr.

It should be mentioned at the outset that Eegah! is one of the worst movies of all time. It earns that title with bad acting, bad sets, and a bad script.

But Eegah! is one of those movies that’s so bad, it’s fun to watch and make fun of while you do. It’s not surprising that it’s been mocked by Mystery Science Theater 3000, among (many) others.

War-Gods of the Deep (1965) starring Tab Hunter, David Tomlinson, Vincent Price, Susan Hart, John Le Mesurier

War-Gods of the Deep is a delightful popcorn movie – not dreadfully deep, but eminently enjoyable. It deals with a trio (Tab Hunter, David Tomlinson, Susan Hart) staying at a manor on the  Cornish coast in 1903, where the house is burgled by … mermen? Who later proceed to kidnap the woman, sending the two men — and a chicken — in pursuit, where they find a group of smugglers, living deep beneath the sea, near an active volcano, and led by the iconic Vincent Price.

The House of Wax (1953) starring Vincent Price, Phyllis Kirk, Carolyn Jones

Review

Buy from Amazon Vincent Price is well-known for playing the role of the sympathetic monster. And here, as a once-great artist named Jarrod, his hands ruined, confined to a wheelchair, he’s definitely sympathetic. And, literally with a tragic backstory.
