Black & White; Standard Screen; Soundtrack English Roger Corman directed this big-crab classic in which a crew of scientists investigates a nuclear fallout-stricken atoll in the Pacific. There isn't a sign of life on the island, but the researchers hear voices calling to them at night, and when they investigate they are promptly clawed and eaten. It seems these gigantic mutant crabs absorb the intelligence of their victims and can speak in their voices. Russell Johnson (the Professor from GILLIGAN'S ISLAND) is a demolition expert who manages to fall in love with betrothed biologist Martha Hunter (Pamela Duncan) before the crab business gets too critical, which isn't long. Mel Welles, Leslie Bradley, and Richard Garland costar as concerned scientists and future brain food. Corman works efficiently from an intelligent script by Charles B. Griffith, achieving a brisk pace that masks the low budget. Beach Dickerson and Ed Nelson are sailors who get eaten (they also operate the crabs for Corman, and in some scenes their legs are visible). This is a fun early example of the "pick 'em off one by one" mode of horror storytelling that would later be adopted in such films as ALIEN and FRIDAY THE 13TH.

A meteor crashes in the desert near a small Arizona town, and research scientist John Putnam (Richard Carlson) thinks it's a spaceship, but no one will believe him except his loyal girlfriend, Ellen (Barbara Rush). Weird evidence begins to back up his theory however, from the strange behavior of some of the locals, to the slime trails, the ghostly noises in the phone lines, and the apparitions of hideous alien eyes swooping down on passing cars. Director Jack Arnold (CREATURE FROM THE BLACK LAGOON) lets the story ...

Now, the human survivors have created a deadly strike force composed of five cybernetically enhanced and, of course, busty women who are charged with ridding the Earth of those extraterrestrial meanies. Outfitted with the latest weapons and skimpy outfits, these girls shouldn't have much trouble blasting through those enemy lines.

Crispin Glover and Corey Feldman star in this, the fourth movie in the venerable FRIDAY THE 13TH series. Though most had written off the series by this installment, in retrospect this looks like it was the best of the series. First, Glover injects some much needed personality into the film as Jimmy, one of the many doomed teenagers at Camp Crystal Lake, and he seems to somehow make ...
