Don't give it away for folks who haven't seen it !Watched it the other night. There are scenes that I wish I could unsee, but are now burned onto my consciousness. That said it was brilliantly acted from the whole cast. It looked absolutely gorgeous and the soundtrack is fab. Barry Keoghan makes for a brilliant villain.
I won't mention any of the scenes. I think it is quite obvious what is going on with Keoghan's character from the start.Don't give it away for folks who haven't seen it !
Perhaps not for all viewers , that's a rather sweeping presumption .I won't mention any of the scenes. I think it is quite obvious what is going on with Keoghan's character from the start.
I liked this one. Cat O'Nine TailsThe Cat o' Nine Tails (1971) In a crime mystery / horror story, at a high-tech medical research institute, a break-in had occurred, yet, nothing was stolen. The title refers to the various lines of investigation that all must be pursued in order to find the answer. The research is in genetics, and had found a genetic trait that was associated with criminals.
Carlo Giordani (James Franciscus) is a reporter, who begins working with Franco Arnò (Karl Malden) himself an ex-investigative reporter, retired because he became blind, but whose wealth of experience aid Giordani in his own work.
I thought this was at least o.k., but Dario Argento, who directed it, thought poorly of it.
I recorded was was listed as Godzilla, but was instead Gojira. TCM goofed. I wanted to see the version with the ex-heavy Raymond Burr in it. I watched the entire Gojira series last year, enjoyed it very much. I one watches carefully, it is obvious these military trucks are running on slots.Gojira (1954): The one that started it all, and yet a far, far cry from the majority of the franchise. Somehow I hadn't seen it up until very recently, but it still largely holds up. Obviously it's dated visually (it's quite obvious that the vehicles are toys getting smashed), but it's otherwise as effective a piece of entertainment today as it was back when it was released.
The black-and-white is a huge benefit, especially during the nighttime rampage. I dunno, man, there's just something otherworldly and horrifying that the lack of color adds to the scenes of destruction, with streetlights and fires providing whitened glimpses into the black smoke and night sky.
