some VCR tapes had to be held from bottom so should have seen that coming by DVD sets.
Adolf Hitler is not same as Mario from Donkey Kong or Mario brothers either.
I didn't expect "Jesus Christ, everybody in this movie is dead" to become a running gag but I'm all for it
😂😂😂
(Almost) Halloween is such an underrated holiday imo. Wish more people would celebrate it
Why celebrate Mischief Day?
Great reviews. Lady Frankenstein doesn't look too bad, kinda like hammer but not quite. With some tweaks the Lucifer complex could've been very good and lol at the Devil Bat's screech
Long and pointless driving scenes are a hallmark of Ed Wood movies.
If I remember correctly ‘The Lucifer Complex’ was a project that was originally abandoned when the project ran out of money. Director David L Hewett then added footage from another unfinished movie about a women’s prison before bringing it up to feature length by shooting the framing story. So it’s actually 3 movies in one!
and none of them are remotely watchable.
Yeah, I have this set, Killer Creatures, and Madness 50 movie sets. Certainly the eclectic range of flicks. Really happy to see someone review these films though. It's like a mini time capsule review because a lot of these films will be lost to people's memories as technology advances and older media has become more damage and lost to time. Now some of them deserve that, but there are a few exceptions like The Cabinet of Dr. Caligari and some others in that set.
Re: "The Lucifer Complex": If you want a good version of this same basic idea, I highly recommend "The Boys From Brazil". I don't want to say too much, cuz it's something of a mystery, and I don't want to ruin that for people who don't now the plot.
Got the most laughs with The Devil Bat 😂😂😂
I discovered that series of yours these days and it’s great! Im glad im here to follow new episodes as they launch!
I didn't search specifically but your description of The Head sounds like a film adaptation of a novel "Professor Dowell's Head" by famous Soviet writer Alexandr Belyaev. It also has an old professor being kept as a head by his former assistant. And a transplantation scene from a bodyless cabaret singer to the body of an actress who died during trainwreck. Even if I'm wrong and the film isn't an adaptation I would highly recommend to check out the book.
YES!!!! So happy you're doing more!
Thank for all the movies you cover...and the way you did ..is just excellent !!!
Love your channel
It's my third viewing of your Mill Creek series !😊
Notice how a cab is pulling in behind that cab? Dollars to donuts, Ed Wood's original draft he intended the cab to go through the roundabout and the cab was supposed to pick the guy up.
Pretty good first part to this boxset. Definitely curious to see what the rest of the set holds
My favorite kind of content! Excited to watch it all! I also can't wait to see the boomers who find your videos tell you that kids your age can't enjoy these obvious "classics".
edit: Yeah, North Carolina is one of the few places that can support venus flytraps in the wild!
Back in my day we watched paint dry AND WE LIKED IT.
@@ZaGorudan After walking to school uphill both ways we were GRATEFUL to see th latest poverty row movie that didn't care about workplace safety!!!
The "I know what you are" joke had me rolling.
At 12:19 the headline reads, Killer, John Ritter, Escapes
12:28 UPDATE: The original cut of Torture Ship is no longer on Felix Dembinski's channel, but there's a RUclips channel called Nostalgia Horror that re-upload the movie.
this seems like a perfect time to start my own version of this, I Watched 50 Western Classics like I said, I'll credit you for the idea Gorudan👍
Wasn't anticipating hearing _Doom 2_ music in The Lucifer Complex segment!
edit: also, I just had the revelation that The Lucifer Complex might be the first reaction video ever.
It only made sense to me at the time to use the Wolfenstein level music for the movie with the demonetization police.
Halloweeniemus on star wars day.
27:49 the guy who asks if “Have you ever had a date with a girl?” Is Arthur Q. Bryan, the original voice of Elmer Fudd.
I'd say the scientist who was possessed by the alien force in "Kronos" (1957) qualifies as a "mad scientist. "
give me time and ill for sure go to the patreon, i got babies to feed first... but i love this channel already
The severed head in The Head reminds me of Dr. Hill in Re-Animator.
WESSST, you stupid biped!!
Wasn't the trailer for lady Frankenstein sampled by rob zombie for living dead girl?
I like Tod Slaughter, from England. Very good.
The only entertaining thing about "The Lucifer Complex" is that the sound recordist is named Dick Pitstick.
7:55 I’m sorry but is that an Ice Cream man as a Bartender? He must have it good selling kids ice cream and adults alcohol.
"demonetization police" is probably the best tap dancing I've heard in a long time
ROTF NEST THEME 0:00
The Head seems awful lot like a rip-off of a 1925 sci-fi novel Professor Dowell's Head by Alexander Belyaev.
Crazy scientist with a who does head transplant experiments - check.
A scientist who got his severed head kept alive against his will - check.
A female assistant who uncovers the truth - check.
Woman gets a head transplant - check (though in the novel it was some cabaret singer and not assistant).
do you have a link to the uncut version of ''Torture Ship''?
I watched the first minutes of the devil bat but I never got around to finishing it
Are there any more box set reviews coming?
And once again, Golden tortures themselves for our entertainment
15:02 😂
Think about the cast of 1976’s “Silver Streak”: the entire cast is dead, and it’s a biiiiig cast. Jesus Christ!
Bombastic ignoramus, I like it!
Poor Bela. Going to PRC and having to play a character who gets paid a pittance from a company he earned millions for.
Oh, the irony.
What was that laugh at 36:44 ?
Wait... the nudity in Dr X looks like pearl divers... did Ed Wood accidentally channel Ishiro Honda?
It's almost Halloween...
May the 4th be with you.
All of these are still better than DIZNEE new movies
Wasn’t Dr. X in another box set?
It might've been put on another one, but it is on this one too.
@@ZaGorudan I remember the Car to Car shenanigans driving the call insane.
He made a standalone video on it a few months ago, I was also very confused thinking he covered it in the SciFi Boxset
@@jesusramirezromo2037 I've been working on this series for the past three months.
Someone will make a Wikipedia page on The Lucifer Complex now
lord I hope not.
Re: RETURN OF DOCTOR X-'-
1) HOW can the narrator not know Venus Flytraps are real plants ?????? They6the most famous carnivorous plants, ahead of Pitcher Plants and Sundew !
2) I will give you a pass on failing to recognize the Seminole women as Ama Pearl Divers. They have a long tradition of diving unaided and unclothed into the depths in search of oysters. Remember YOU ONLY LIVE TWICE? 007's cover was husband to an Ama.
Ugh Dr X seems unbearable indeed.
epic gamer goment. please rember to lik e commend and sanskrit
2:00 if u can get all the sleep u need king
