Creature From The Black Lagoon

Finally watched this classic tonight. Amazing movie. I had heard from just about everyone that it holds up very well even now & I really do agree.

and then there's Julie Adams in a bathing suit.

[wolfie]

yeah and the creature without a bathing suit.

If you ever watch "Anaconda," notice how similar much of the film is to CFBL. It's almost a remake, just with a different monster.

[thunderbolt]

^^ Yeah, its like it was planned to be that and they had to change it around. Or its an out right ripoff.

Every time I see that movie, I realize how much Spielberg used on Jaws.

I look at it as an homage, but ripoff will do. "Arachnophobia" is a pretty spot on adaption of the novel "Dracula" with the spider as the vampire.

Revenge Of The Creature is also timeless and worth watching.

Oh my God. I kept pointing that stuff out to my son.....I wasn't sure if I was just making it up.

There's actually three films about the Creature. But only one really counts.

I don't have Netflix DVD. I will have to try and download it. Wish it was on Instant Watch.

I love Creature and Revenge but the 3rd movie was rotten. I have the first 2 on tape.

"The Creature Walks Among Us," may not be a good film, but it is the screen debut of Clint Eastwood.

[hawkmike]

my favorite movie monster,but the other 2 movie were horrible!

wrong movie, he was in Revenge, not walks. He worked in John Agar's lab at Marine Land or whatever it was called and he was the jet pilot that blew the crap out of the Tarantula the same year.
