Some I'd like to see again:

"A Dead Man Seeks His Murderer" A German film I saw back in the late 60s. It was while I was trying to identify this movie that I found this site.

"Beach Girls & the Monster (Monster From the Surf)" One of my favorite cheesy movies. haven't seen this one since the 70s.

"Tiko & the Shark" I remember loving this one as a child. I'm curious as to how it will hold up.

"The Sadist" (1963) The one film Arch Hall Jr. doesn't have to be embarrassed about.

"The London Rock and Roll Show" This one used to run on USA's Night Flight". A concert film with Lord Sutch, Little Richard, Chuck Berry, Bo Diddley, Bill Haley and Jerry Lee Lewis.

Frogs with their endless croaking, croaking, croaking in the night.

There was a movie that I haven't seen in over 20 years that i would love to see again.  It had this guy whose hand got cut off and the hand goes around killing people.  Some reason I was thinking the movie was The Think or The It?  Anyone know what it was?

The film you're thinking of Cricket would most likely be "The Hand" starring Michael Caine.

Here's the IMDB listing for it:

And it was directed by Oliver Stone of all people!

There are a handful of rogue hand movies out there.  You've got Peter Lorre in THE BEAST WITH FIVE FINGERS (1946) and the ultra-low budget THE CRAWLING HAND (1963) to name a couple.

There is a scene with a severed hand in INVASION OF THE SAUCER-MEN (1957).  How many other titles have deadly disembodied digits?

The one I remember was a black and white flick.

The Burgomaster

The Flesh Eaters - I don't think I have ever seen this one
Atragon - Ah, yes . . . an old Saturday afternoon favorite
War of the Gargantuas - I agree . . . top-notch Japanese nonsense!
Horrors of the Black Museum - Another good one
The Crazies - I bought the DVD a few months ago.  Very entertaining.
Williard - I can't wait for this to come out on DVD
Dead and Buried - I bought the DVD a few months ago.  A necessary part of any horror collection.
My Name is Nobody - I'm ashamed to say that I don't think I have ever seen this movie.
The Story of "O" - Available on DVD!
Beau Geste (1966 version) - Again, never seen it.
Ft. Apache - Another one I haven't seen.
Rio Grande - Good western for a rainy Saturday afternoon.
Zapata - Do yopu mean Viva Zapata?
Villa Rides - I have never seen it
Don't Be Afraid of the Dark - One of the scariest made-for-TV horror movies of all time

Good list!

Here's my list of what I'm perpetually on the lookout for:

War of the Monsters-AIP version of the second Gamera flick; haven't seen it since 1982

The Flesh Eaters-someone else mentioned this one. I'd love to see it again

The Legend of Lobo-it's been at least 30 years for this one. Disney live-action about a wolf

Beast of Morocco (aka: Hand of Night) wierd vampire flick

Lemora-A Child's Tale of the Supernatural (or whatever other title it may be under)

Superargo vs. Diabolicus-I remember enjoying this one as a kid

Mission Stardust-Euro Perry Rhodan flick

I second these! Mission Stardust used to be on every few months, but I've only  ever seen Superargo vs. Diabolicus once.

I'd like to see Willard & Ben again.
Haven't come across Jason & the Argonauts in a long time (great scene of them fighting the skeleton army)

Well, Burgomaster I haven't seen THE FLESH EATERS in over 28 years. They use to show that one and THE SCREAMING SKULL, TARANTULA, etc. alot on Monster Movie Matinee every saturday afternoon in the mid-70's. I liked it then and am curious how I would like it today. I think it's kinda a lost film or something.

MY NAME IS NOBODY is a great Sergio Leone/Marnicone Western with Henry Fonda and Terrence Hill. Terrence Hill does his TRINITY character and follows Henry Fonda who plays a legendary gunfighter who takes on about 100 train robbers on horseback. Quite a moment.

BEAU GESTE (1966 version) is neat version with Telly Savalas as the fort commander. A good Foriegn Legion film.

Yes, it was VIVA ZAPATA (1952)starring Marlon Brando as the Revolutionary.

VILLA RIDES stars Robert Mitchum and Yul Brynner. Mitchum is a pilot of a plane who drops dynamite on Mexican troops from above.
