Movie Reviews of Gargoyles
Movie Review: Great Locations , Excellent Cast, "NO" Commentary Track?
Summary: 5 Stars
In a land in the distant past BC(before Cable), Television had orginal programs! Gargolyes is an excellent example of what can be done in a TV movie. And a hell of a introduction to Milton!
The Screenplay is written better than average and direction is fast paced.
The DVD is Sharp and Commercial free, although the colors are way to vivid. The greens make New Mexico look like Hawaii. (The film was filmed in and around Carlsbad NM. Note: Opening scene with the Texas International Convair 600 on it's milk run) I agree there should have been a commentary track! (Jennifier Salt would have been great!)Cornel Wilde and Jennifer Salt sold the story with help of a great supporting cast of real character actors.
Watch the back seat for the uncredited camera man.
Watch it before your next road trip in the desert and you too will see Garagolyes in the distant hills.
Oh don't forget to stop by Uncle Willy's Desert Museum.
Enjoy!
Movie Review: Oh, but you'll be around to see it BOLEY......
Summary: 5 Stars
This is too cool. Take me back.. I used to catch this movie whenever it came on just to see the crazy half-baked bikers, fumbling cops.. listen to Uncle Willie talk about the "Nacadakachinko"...loved that cow skull with a nose job. (what a name!!!), and most of all...Grayson Hall..siren of Dark Shadows (aka Mrs. Collins to Thayer David's Count Petofy, always tossing the I Ching...)goin on about "uh huh..I've seen it all..dopers, drunks..whores.." stirring the cocktail with her bony finger..at the tackiest roadside motel ever filmed. But the best part was the peek at Stan Winston in his early days...great gargoyle costumes, for the most part..a few dogs but Bernie Casey was totally awesome. If you're a MFTVM freak..you need this DVD..I bought it just for nostalgic purposes..and every once in a while I need to hear "Oh, but you'll be around to see it BOLEY..the END of your world...the BEGINNING of MINE!"Movie Review: They are back
Summary: 5 Stars
This is right up there with the big bug pictures. Like most pictures you hold different views from childhood to more sophisticated adult spooky movies. The top Gargoyle (Bernie Casey) makes me think of Disney's Fantasia ... The part with "Night on Bald Mountain."
An anthropologist passing through an out of the way place in the desert is intrigued after being shown the skull of a gargoyle. It looks so well put together that it could be real. Then he gets an opportunity to find out for sure.
In short if you go walking around the desert at night in a halter-top, you have to expect that a winged creature, with a jealous wife, may pick you up. And be a little more discriminating of whose bones you pick.
Never Say Never Again ~ Bernie Casey as Felix Leiter
Movie Review: I Still Watch The Night Skies With Trepidation!...
Summary: 5 Stars
I saw the TV premiere of GARGOYLES as a kid. I remember walking home from my friend's house that night, looking all around me, expecting a monster attack! Even today, I get that pleasant little shiver whenever I think of those beasts assaulting that car! GARGOYLES is a treasured TV horror film, right up there w/ DON'T BE AFRAID OF THE DARK, DARK NIGHT OF THE SCARECROW, CROWHAVEN FARM, and TRILOGY OF TERROR. Cornel Wilde and Jennifer Salt must face the mysterious creatures in a battle over a skeleton, culminating in the revealing of the horned, winged leader (Bernie Casey). The eyes and voice of which used to make my flesh crawl! Of course, a million years later, and I'm no longer as easily scared as I was then. However, I do still watch the skies at night, especially when driving out in the middle of nowhere...Movie Review: tonight on the late show "Gargoyles" right after this message
Summary: 5 Stars
Ah, this one is one of the better T.V. horror movies of the 70's and one more part of my attempt to find and watch all the old movies that I loved as a child. The chills that this one gave me then still creep back to me now.
Cornel Wilde and Jennifer Salt are father and daughter investigating some strange bones found by an old man in Arizona. They turn out to be bones of the title creature and it's family wants them back, NOW!
this one reeks with atmosphere and a sense of foreboding that it pulls you past any holes in the script and the Make-up by Stan Winston is great. this is one to watch if you Dare,in the dark. After all, its only a movie,right?
