Horror On The Lens: Revenge of the Creature (dir by Jack Arnold)


For today’s horror on the lens, we present to you 1956’s Revenge of the Creature!

Revenge of the Creature was the first sequel to The Creature From The Black Lagoon.  It turns out that the Gil-Man didn’t actually die at the end of the last film.  Instead, he’s alive, he’s been captured, and he’s now being displayed in an aquarium.

Now, I’m going to be honest: Revenge of the Creature is not as a good as The Creature From The Black Lagoon.  But it’s still kind of fun in a silly 1950s monster movie sort of way.  And, if you keep your eyes open, you might spot a very young Clint Eastwood, playing a lab technician and sporting a truly impressive head of hair.

Enjoy!
