    And I'm all tapped out on my list!
    Sorry to hear. I sill have at least 20 more, but I won't be available to add to the thread till tomorrow evening - going away overnight for my anniversary. Seeing King Lear with Christopher Lloyd playing Lear - should be great.

    Here's some of what I have coming, just in case anyone wants to nominate them...is this ethical? Swiss Family Robinson, Khartoum, The Miracle Worker, The Incredible Mr. Limpet, Von Ryan's Express...
    Oh yeah, forgot about The Incredible Mr. Limpet, barely remember it, but know I loved it as a kid. I'll second it once you nominate, but don't feel comfortable nominating something I barely remember (although in retrospect, The Absent-minded professor fits in that catagory).

    Anyway although it was cheesy as heck, I always got excited when I saw it listed in the TV guide and made sure I watched it when it came on:

    Son of Godzilla

    (I loved all the Godzilla movies as a kid, except Godzilla vs the Smog monster)
    Wanted:

    'Salem's Lot Portfolio #606


    Fairy Tale UK S/L

    It's streaming on the Criterion Channel. They have a free trial: https://www.criterionchannel.com/bad-girls-go-to-hell

    By the way, if anyone wants to catch up on some of these foreign classics, I would definitely at least look into the free trial with CC, if not a subscription (which is way worth it).

    It is beyond cheesy. I love Godzilla, but I can't. But if someone were to nominate, say, Destroy All Monsters...

    As long as we are going down this road...

    I nominate Blood Feast (1963)

    Watch clip:


    This is a terrible movie. But a very important one. What makes the film so groundbreaking is that is truly was the first splatter/gore/dismemberment flick. This is THE FILM that spawned an entire genre. Someone had to break through into 1960s conservative America and director Herschell Gordon Lewis was just the man.

    The DVD has one of the best commentary tracks I've ever listened to. HGL and producer David Friedman discuss the making and marketing of the film--how they shipped the movies out to drive-in theaters, how the word-of-mouth gave the movie legs, and how different communities tried to shut them down.

    Shooting on a shoestring budget (less than $25,000), HGL's motto was "We don't want it good, we want it Thursday." No rehearsal scenes and no reshoots (waste of film). Actor doesn't show up for his part? No biggie, just yank a guy off the crew and have him write his lines on the palm of his hand. Problem solved. We also learn that Gary Sinise's father was an editor on the movie. Stuff like that. Seriously--this commentary is worth the 67 minutes of your time.
