A throw back to the Golden Age of B-movies.
9 February 2009
It was the late Charlton Heston from THE OMEGA MAN, who said, "They don't make pictures the way they used to." Well with Hollywood cooking up multi-million dollar movies, that happen to be sequels, remakes and adaptations of comics, TV shows and cartoons, anime, and animated CGI features, all which end up being stuffed down our throats, it is time to take a breathe of fresh air and watch independent movies or movies made in a retro manner, like this one. I am a big fan of B-movies and 50's sci-fi schlock. This one is an homage to classic films like PLAN 9 FROM OUTER SPACE, DEVIL GIRLS FROM MARS and ROBOT MONSTER. The film is deliberately supposed to funny and silly, so the film-maker can give his tip of the hat to the veterans of these sort of films. There some scenes that are very funny. Where the bad-guy gets killed by the skeleton and the skeleton says something like "I never liked you." How can you hold a straight face to the battle with the cheesy monster and the skeleton? It looks like as if they were dancing. Bottom line: It is imaginative and I highly recommend it.
