I'm not a fan of most of her films, though I do like MILLION DOLLAR MERMAID (maybe because of VICTOR MATURE) but who didn't like ESTHER?  Good night, Esther, we all loved you.

Wow.  I thought she died a long time ago!  I remember when I was a kid, one of the local TV stations played a lot of commercials for Esther Williams swimming pools.  That was my first introduction to Esther Williams . . . swimming pool commercials in the early 1970s!

Imvery sad to here that. When any one from the Golden Age of Hollywood dies-it's another chip out of our past-because the Golden Age of Hollywood is a mirror onto things that once was. Bless yoy,Esther Williams.

    Earth is visited by a GIANT ANTIMATTER SPACE BUZZARD! Gawk at the amazingly bad bird puppet, or chuckle over the silly dialog. This is one of the greatest b-movies ever made.

    Lesson Learned:
