Earth vs. the Spider (1958)

http://i346.photobucket.com/albums/p...psbea3e3ba.jpg

And my ongoing research on 'Giant Spiders in Cinema' still continues!::smile::
Had quite hard to time to pick some "reasonable" background scores for the montage..and finally there's two that I'd like to work on.

Anyway, about the movie: not as half-good as Tarantula but still somewhat a fun watch though.

That was great...thanks for showing that. Probably indeed too freaky and violent for the time.
KING KONG is a masterpiece...just a classic on every level. Was lucky enough to see it in the theater when I was 8 going on 9 and really into dinosaurs. Just enthralled by the whole thing, especially the scene of KK fight with the T Rex.

It's a very cool scene! Love the stopmotion in King Kong.

I see I remembered incorrectly... The spider pit scene wasn't deleted, it was "lost"... and this was a Peter Jackson recreation. Probably something he played with in prep for making King Kong.

Here's another good one, from the great "The Incredible Shrinking Man"

Dr. Syn, Alias The Scarecrow (The Scarecrow Of Romney Marsh)
-Patrick McGoohan

Plot: In eighteenth century England, the mysterious masked rider known only as The Scarecrow leads a rebel band against the Kings oppression and Navel Press Gangs.

Phantoms Review: One of my all time favorite movies. Plenty of swashbuckling action, thrills, humor and drama. The acting, cinematography, direction and writing are yop notch.
Patrick McGoohan and the entire cast are superb. Simply put, this is a great film.

The House on Haunted Hill -- 9/10

The character of Nora must hold the record for the quickest fright recovery time.

Repulsion is a masterpiece, plain and simple.

Plainly said and simply true.
