I literally forgot the name of this movie like 3-4 times now. I also forgot the name of my boxset this is from, which I am going to write here so it's easy to find. Strange Tales 20 movie pack. I got this walloping motherfucker about 12 or so years ago at Suncoast. It's kind of reassuring that, as far as things go, it hasn't lost value all that much. I got it new for like $10-12, and that's still the price of the box now.
I did lose one of the DVDs from this box several years back. I will not be having a complete boxset review of this like I have multiple times on this site. I doubt I'll even watch all the movies I do still have, even though it's been my goal for the last like 12 years. It's funny, because I honestly barely touched the box after buying it. I remember watching This Is Not A Test, and I might remember watching Idaho Transfer or something at one point in time.
Terror-Creatures, originally titled something more like 5 Graves for a Medium, is a long, dialogue filled, dull ass movie. IMDB tells me that there were both deaths and nudity in this movie, though I'd be hard pressed to remember either. I think I'd remember nudity, IMDB later says its like side-boob. Nah. Not something I'd remember, never mind.
You know, I have been having a shitty time in life recently. This movie didn't help. All I wanted to do was enjoy what I commonly say is my favorite holiday, Halloween. Of course, Halloween II the original sequel was my first choice. I watched Halloween last Halloween, and I thought it would be super cool to see Halloween II. I also rewatched Halloween 3 recently, and shit I guess I didn't review it? I should've, damnit. Anyways, that could have basically kicked off a Halloween marathon, if I had played my cards right. Maybe tonight if I don't do anything I'll watch Halloween II. Isn't it funny, by the way, that some movies use Roman numerals, and some use numbers? What the fuck? What the hell is the deal?
I have virtually nothing to say about Terror-Creatures, if that's not obviously apparent. I barely even remember the sad mess of bad black and white footage and the barely follow-able plot. I'll give it a cautious 1.5 stars, in case I missed something while I was depressed and lonely in my house.
On huge knock against this movie: this is 24 years later than the other movie off this boxset I watched, Robot Pilot. And yet, this feel about exactly the same age, and looks about as shitty as that movie did. Robot Pilot had a reason to look bad, and be terrible. This didn't. I'm just further justifying my rating here.....
