"The Green Slime" (1968)
-Robert Horton Plot: IMDB A giant asteroid is heading toward Earth so some astronauts disembark from a nearby space station to blow it up. The mission is successful, and they return to the station unknowingly bringing back a gooey green substance that mutates into one-eyed tentacled monsters that feed off electricity. Soon the station is crawling with them, and people are being zapped left and right! Phantom's Review: Hysterically funny, sci-fi monster movie. A co-production between Japan and America and an embarassment to both. Actor Robert Horton (probably wishing "Wagon Train" was still on) tries his best to be serious but it's just no use, he can't save it from pure silliness. A treat for bad movie night. And your going to LOVE the rocking theme song.

"The Return Of Dracula" (1958)
-Francis Lederer Plot: IMDB Count Dracula kills a passenger on a train in Transylvania and steals his identity. He comes to a small community in California where the Mayberrys are expecting their cousin from Europe. His strange behaviour, sleeping all day and going out at night are surprising to young miss Rachel Mayberry. A policeman from Europe comes to investigate while Rachel's best friend Jenny dies unexpectedly. And the count plans on giving Rachel the gift of eternal life... Phantom's Review: Low budget, but surprisingly decent little film. The story is nothing new, but the film has some good atmosphere and is well made.

Great movie there. Quite odd! And what a cast.

  Ed Wood lived on in William Beaudine. John Carradine as Dracula was a real hoot. Both films are bad but you gotta love their cheap cheesiness. A pair which will test your love for horror but in the end, you come out smiling. A load of trashy fun.

Love them both. Jesse James Vs. Frankenstein's Daughter is particularly strange...

Horror of Dracula (1958). This classic revolves around the polarities of good and evil, played by Peter Cushing and Christopher Lee. What is fantastic about these roles is that the goodness of Cushing's Van Helsing is almost obtunded by the sterility of his calculating reliance on emotionless science, whereas Lee's Dracula comes to embody passion and eroticism, offsetting his nefarious being. Everything about this flick screams excellence, staking this out to be one of the best Dracula movies ever. With splendid acting, exceptional direction, solid camera work, blended seamlessly with a wonderful adaption of Stoker's celebrated novel, the Horror of Dracula stands head and shoulders above the competition. Ashe.
