Scott's Movie Marathon

[odinn7]

I think you should sit and watch all of them in alphabetical order non-stop until you get through them.

[Scott]

That's a good idea. I do have trouble deciding which one is next. Let's see which would be next if alphabetical order?

Looks like:

Al Capone
Arch of Triumph

This might be the answer to my dilemma Odinn7.

[The Burgomaster]

Here are my comments about a few selected movies on your list:

The Vampire Night Orgy - I bought this a long time ago and only watched about half of it so far.  It's a typical Euro vampire movie.
 
Hells Bloody Devils - Laughable trash from Al Adamson.  But it is NOT boring!  

I have a lot of the martial arts ones you mentioned in the MARTIAL ARTS 50 MOVIE PACK.  I have only watched about 5 or 6 movies from this set so far.

Death Rage - This is in the CHILLING CLASSICS 50 MOVIE PACK.  It's an okay Italian crime thriller starring Yul Brynner and Martin Balsam.
 
Memorial Valley Massacre - Also in the CHILLING CLASSICS set.  Low-budget nonsense "starring" Cameron Mitchell (who is in it for about 5 or 10 minutes).

I have not seen many of the other ones that you mentioned that are from the CHILLING CLASSICS set.  However, I have a few comments about the ones I HAVE seen:

The Witches Mountain - Boring, boring, boring.

Scream Bloody Murder - Entertaining sleaze about a guy with a hook hand.
 
Christmas Evil - aka TERROR IN TOYLAND.  Has a really silly ending.

Funeral Home - fairly boring.

Deep Red - I have a widescreen version on a separate DVD.  One of my favorite Dario Argento films.

Virus - Terrible (but sometimes entertaining) "all star cast" disaster movie.

The Milpitas Monster - Extremely low-budget giant monster movie made by a high school teacher!  Boring in spots, but it is often amusing.

Panic - Awful, awful, awful dubbed horror movie.  Some gore, but not enough to make it interesting.

Cathy's Curse - The picture quality in the CHILLING CLASSICS set is disappointing.  I hope a better version comes out some day.

The Alpha Incident - Bad, bad, bad Bill Rebane movie.

Track of the Moon Beast - Terrible Moonbeast costume and make-up, but a fun low-budget movie.

House of the Dead - Boring, stupid horror movie starring the guy from CREEPSHOW who keeps saying "I want my cake, Bedelia!"

Slashed Dreams - Bad, corny movie about a woman who gets raped on a camping trip.  The original title was SUNBURST.  It's like watching a movie on the Lifetime channel.

Drive-In Massacre - A few murders, but nothing special.  Pretty slow-moving.
 
Street Fighter - Excellent Sonny Chiba movie.  The uncut version has a few pretty gory scenes.

Return of the Streetfighter - Pretty good sequel to THE STREETFIGHTER.

The Man Who Knew Too Much - The James Stewart version is great.  never saw the Peter Lorre version.

Get Christie Love - Fun, fast-moving TV blaxploitation pilot film for the short-lived series.

The Astral Factor - Stupid sci-fi/horror/detective movie about a convict who can make himself turn invisible.  The special effects are awful.  Sort of like a very bad KOLCHAK: THE NIGHT STALKER episode.

I like those Euro-Vampire films.

Has Cameron Mitchell ever done anything worth watching? I liked REBEL ROUSERS, but not because of Mitchell.

Thanks again for your experienced imput there Burgomaster.

[BoyScoutKevin]

"Has Cameron Mitchell ever done anything worth watching?"--Scott

Is that as in "something worth watching," as in . . .

"They Were Expendable"
"Death of a Salesman"

or, is that as in "I enjoyed it, when he was in . . ."

"My Favorite Year"
"House of Bamboo"
"Garden of Evil"
"Man on a Tightrope"

Something I had not known before, until I looked his name up, he was the voice of Jesus Christ in "The Robe."

[Just Plain Horse]

I've always been curious about The Crater Lake Monster, and is The Snake People a better or worse film than The Alligator People?

[Scott]

Oh, so Cameron Mitchell has done a few good ones. : )

[Scott]

I haven't seen it yet, but THE SNAKE PEOPLE is a Mexican film starring Boris Karloff.

Scott:

THE WACKIEST WAGON TRAIN IN THE WEST is actually several episodes of the short-lived DUSTY'S TRAIL television series edited together into a feature film.

DUSTY'S TRAIL was a 1970s rip-off of GILLIGAN'S ISLAND.  Instead of being on an island, the cast was lost in the American West of the 1800s!

The cast included Bob Denver as Dusty (basically a rip-off of Gilligan), Forrest Tucker as the wagon master (basically a rip-off of the Skipper), plus a rich couple (similar to the Howells), a showgirl (just like Ginger) a smart guy (like the professor), and an "ordinary" girl (similar to Mary Ann).

The series only lasted for a few episodes, and then quickly disappeared.

[Scott]

How about that........Burgomaster I'm probably confusing this one with THE APPLE DUMPLING GANG.

[RCMerchant]

HUH? Why dis the Camster??? I LOVED Toolbox Murders...and Blood and Black Lace is cool. And Nightmare in Wax is fun in if you got a bottle of hooch next to ya.Mister Scarface is REAL lame. Jack Palance is on the box but the star is some lousy Italian punk. GODAWFUL.
