Have you watched Robot Monster yet? I highly recommend it for your viewing enjoyment. My candidate for the most unbelievable bizarre and off the wall cheesily bad movie ever.

Them! (1954). Lauded as the mother of the "atomic age gone bad" flicks, this one deserves its accolades. What could have been a corny affair, instead this classic takes this movie seriously and it shows. Not that it does not have a sense of humor, with occasional dialog digs that come out of left field. The cast was as solid as they get for horror, with James Whitmore leading the fray. The story was solid and engaging, with its momentum ever building. The direction and camera work were perfect for effect. And the ending, while a tad abrupt, left the viewer with the appropriately discombobulated sense of dissonance of the future. Ashe.

They have a lot of good Vincent Price oldies running on IRPLEX I think it is lately.

Godzilla vs The Sea Monster (1966)

Fun entry in the Godzilla franchise which has The Big G fighting a giant lobster.

Intresting trivia about this film, it was originally supposed to be the third Toho "King Kong" movie, but at the last minute RKO raised their price for Kong's rights so it was switched to a Godzilla film instead.

Thanks for the rec. I just found a link for the whole movie & saving it for my coming Eid Holidays which will start within less than 2 weeks. I'll love to give it a watch then.:)

"Bedlam" (1946)
-Boris Karloff

Plot: IMDB
Nell Bowen, the spirited protege of rich Lord Mortimer, becomes interested in the conditions of notorious St. Mary's of Bethlehem Asylum (Bedlam). Encouraged by the Quaker Hannay, she tries to bring support to reforming Bedlam, but the cruel Master Sims who runs it has her committed there. The inmates, however, have the last say.

Phantom's Review: While not exactly a "horror" movie, this is still a great thriller. Well acted with great atmosphere. Very entertaining.

Some great images in that film- like the wall of arms... and Karloff is chilling!

Have you ever noticed that Karloff really never gave a "bad" performance. No matter what the movie was, he was good. Truly an amazing actor.
