UN MARTIEN A PARIS (1961) UN MARTIEN A PARIS (1961) aka A Martian in Paris Article 3712 by Dave Sindelar Viewing Date: 9-28-2011 Posting Date: 10-13-2011 Directed by Jean-Daniel Daninos Featuring Darry Cowl, Nicole Mirel, Henri VilbertCountry: France
What it is: Science fiction comedy A Martian is sent to Earth to research the disease known as love, but becomes infected himself. Here’s another one rescued from my “Ones that got away” list thanks to the fact that it got an official release on DVD in France. Unfortunately, that means the movie has no English dubbing or subtitles, and given the above premise, I wasn’t really surprised that most of the comedy was verbal rather than visual. There’s a handful of sight gags, my favorite of which is a little bit where the lead actor does a bit of synchronized “looking” with a viewer on a spaceship. One of the sources I have dismisses the movie and says that Darry Cowl is doing a Jerry Lewis imitation, but I certainly didn’t get a sense of that happening at all; Jerry Lewis’s comedy would have been far more strident and visual. Because of the language barrier, I really have to reserve any judgment on this one.Advertisements

THIS IS NOT A TEST (1962) THIS IS NOT A TEST (1962) Article 3711 by Dave Sindelar Viewing Date: 9-27-2011 Posting Date: 10-12-2011 Directed by Fredric Gadette Featuring Seamon Glass, Thayer Roberts, Aubrey MartinCountry: USA
What it is: End of the world movie A policeman sets up a roadblock in the middle of the night and imposes martial law on the small group of people who are stopped. The reason – World War III has broken out, and it’s his job to keep the roads from being blocked and to find a plan of survival. This low-budget end of the world flick is unevenly acted and written, but the basic premise is interesting, and it’s interesting to see how some of the characters react to the pressure of the situation. I like the canny old man who eventually finds his own destiny (as well as hitting upon a chance of survival that seems more practical than the policeman’s), the not entirely sane criminal on the run, and the policeman himself, whose mental deterioration is most striking because, for the most part, he’s not allowed to show how he’s feeling. For the most part, the other characters are not developed well or are caught in cliche situations; the slang-talking hipster is the most annoying and least convincing. There’s some nice attention to detail at points, but the movie has a number of dull sequences in the middle. All in all, it’s not quite successful, but it has moments that are truly effective.__0 Comments

TARZAN’S HIDDEN JUNGLE (1955) TARZAN’S HIDDEN JUNGLE (1955) Article 3710 by Dave Sindelar Viewing Date: 9-26-2011 Posting Date: 10-11-2011 Directed by Harold D. Schuster Featuring Gordon Scott, Vera Miles, Peter van EyckCountry: USA
What it is: Tarzan movie A doctor who is friendly with an animal-worshiping native tribe is placed in peril when he befriends two professional hunters who are pretending to be cameramen. The hunters intend to drive the sacred animals to a land across the river so they can hunt them safely away from the tribe. Can Tarzan save the doctor and the animals? For yesterday’s Tarzan movie, I rather liked that the plot was a bit novel; I can’t say the same about this one, which pits Tarzan once again against evil hunters. Furthermore, this is one of the duller entries in the series; it’s the sort of movie where Tarzan is swimming in the same river with a crocodile and they pass each other peacefully. There’s no treehouse, no Jane, no Boy, and even Cheta’s antics are kept to a minimum. Furthermore, outside of the mild fantasy elements inherent in the Tarzan concept, there’s no fantastic content, and the title of the movie doesn’t really mean anything. There are much better Tarzan movies out there.__0 Comments

TARZAN GOES TO INDIA (1962) TARZAN GOES TO INDIA (1962) Article 3709 by Dave Sindelar Viewing Date: 9-25-2011 Posting Date: 10-10-2011 Directed by John Guillermin Featuring Jock Mahoney, Jai, Leo Gordon Country: UK / USA / Switzerland What it is: Tarzan abroad The completion of a dam will flood out a valley where a herd of 300 elephants resides. No attempts have been made to evacuate the beasts because they’re being lead by a dangerous rogue elephant. Tarzan arrives in India at a friend’s request, and seeks to save the elephants by killing the rogue and and placing a benevolent elephant in its place. But can he accomplish this before the only exit point from the valley is walled in? As is often the case with Tarzan movies, the only fantastic content in this one is the marginal fantasy element of Tarzan himself; otherwise, this is straightforward jungle adventure. Its rating of 4.9 on IMDB indicates it is not well liked, but I found this fairly decent; the basic story is fairly original, the India locations give the movie a different flavor from the other Tarzan movies, and though he’s leaner than some of the other people who’ve played the role, I don’t mind Jock Mahoney as Tarzan. The biggest problem I have is that the villains of the piece seem poorly motivated; they act villainously just because they’re villains, though it’s nice that the two of them are different enough (one is redeemable, the other is irredeemable) that they give us a bit of variety. This one is definitely for elephant fans, as there are a lot of them on hand here. On a side note, I do wonder why Tarzan couldn’t afford to take a flight that was willing to actually land at his point of arrival instead of having him dive out of the plane into a body of water, but maybe that’s just Tarzan showing off. There’ll probably be more Tarzan hijinks tomorrow.__0 Comments

STRANGLER OF THE TOWER (1966) STRANGLER OF THE TOWER (1966) aka Der Wurger vom Tower Article 3708 by Dave Sindelar Viewing Date: 9-24-2011 Posting Date: 10-9-2011 Directed by Hans Mehringer Featuring Ady Berber, Birgit Bergen, Rainer Bertram Country: West Germany What it is: Krimi… but not from the usual people A strangler is on the loose killing people who possess jewels that were cut from an allegedly cursed gem. Is a cult of Kali responsible? I must have seen enough krimis to be familiar enough with the form now; after a few minutes of this one, I found myself checking the production company to see if it was different from the usual production company (Rialto), and sure enough, it was; it’s from Urania. That may be why I didn’t quite get the same feel from it as I do the other krimis, and, despite the fact that the movie currently has an 8.8 rating on IMDB, I found it fairly weak. It is nice to see the big hulking Ady Berber again as the title character, but, truth to tell, he’s barely in it, and the whole movie has a dry, forced tone to it. Berber’s killer and the Kali cult are the big horror elements here, but as is usual with the form, it’s more of a mystery than ahorror movie.

Article 3707 by Dave Sindelar Viewing Date: 9-23-2011 Posting Date: 10-8-2011 Directed by Rafael Baledon Featuring Kitty de Hoyos, Joaquin Cordero, Columba DominguezCountry: Mexico
What it is : Werewolf movie A female werewolf is on the loose terrorizing the community, and soon one of the victims who survived her attack also becomes a werewolf. I found a copy of this one on Youtube, and though I’m not sure that it’s complete, it seems to be mostly there. It’s in Spanish without subtitles, but it’s one of those movies in which it doesn’t matter quite as much, as the talk is kept to a minimum. The movie even opens with a ten minute werewolf-on-the-loose sequence where barely a word is spoken. This movie is surprisingly effective; it is full of atmosphere, the attacks are surprisingly savage and bloody, and the makeup is creative. The werewolf makeup isn’t always effective in the close-ups, but it’s unique and creative in the longer shots, and whoever plays the female werewolf in these shot is incredibly athletic and does a fantastic job of capturing the feel of an unpredictable wild animal on the loose. The female werewolf is covered with patches of fur, but is otherwise naked, and the movie does play with this a bit in the transformation sequences. Even though the plot subtleties do get lost in the language, this was one of the more impressive Mexican horror films I’ve seen, and even those who have no patience with movies not translated into English would appreciate the first ten minutes.__0 Comments

Country: USA
What it is: Tom and Jerry Cartoon Tom gets frightened by a radio show. Jerry decides to use this opportunity to engage in scary gags to frighten him further. I associate the Tom and Jerry cartoons with a certain manic comic violence that can sometimes be a little hard to take. However, this is one of the earlier cartoons, and is somewhat gentler in spirit. The most memorable gags involve a sheet draped over a vacuum cleaner; the latter item is so powerful that it almost sucks up all of Tom’s nine lives. The radio show was based on a real one at the time called “The Witching Hour”, and features the voice of the real-life narrator of the show in the opening scenes. All in all, this is a fairly amusing cartoon.__0 Comments
