Movie Reviews of Reptilicus
Movie Review: Woman in the Baby Jane make up was scarier than Reptilicus.
Summary: 3 Stars
REPTILICUS, by Sidney Pink the same guy who brought us THE MAN FROM O.R.G.Y. and THE TWONKY, is pretty close to being the bottom of the barrel as far as giant monster movies of 50's and 60's go. Even THE GIANT GILA MONSTER was better.
The reason REPTILICUS is so bad is not because of the pathetic special effects, the numerous plot holes or even the oddly inserted "Visit Denmark" scenes, but because of the atrocious acting by the entire cast, especially Carl Ottosen who plays a General with wild mood swings. I've seen less wood at a Wooden Indian Convention.
Worth watching once, preferably with some friends to ease the pain.
Ed Wood, Jr. was much better than this.
Movie Review: Cheese Danish!
Summary: 3 Stars
I didn't even know that Denmark had a film industry! If you like cheesy sci-fi films (and I do, especially when I am on summer vacation), this will be right up your alley. The fact that almost everyone in it looks Nordic and speaks with a heavy Danish accent and that you get a mini-travelogue of Copenhagen in the middle of the movie, only adds to its uniqueness. The Danish janitor does a scandinavian equivalent of stepin fetchit, complete with bug eyes. There are actually a few impressive scenes, such as thousands of Danes running throught the streets from the monster. As movies go, it stinks. As bad movies go, it is fun. Check it out.Movie Review: Now if they'll just reprint the novelization
Summary: 3 Stars
Once upon a time Reptilicus , Gorgo , and Konga had paperback novelizations.In the case of Reptilicus the book was better.Although the film's plot isn't that different , the realization of the monster was much better left to one's imagination than what appears on the screen.This is the one Tri-Star should have remade.They could have even blown Reptilicus up and had 100's of small one regenerate in the Garden.Movie Review: Amazing!

Danish cheese!
See! --
Hyperdramatic acting over life-or-death confrontation with a fake rampaging monster!
Copenhagen destroyed!
A woman scientist with nothing to do but be blonde and attractive!
A plot so full of holes it won't hold water!
You'll love it!
WARNING: Wear straight-jacket to prevent split sides!
Movie Review: Monster Cheese
Summary: 3 Stars
Pretty decent bit of Danish cheese. The tail of an ancient self-regenerating reptile monster is fed nutrients until it...REGENERATES! The monster goes no a rampage of very bad special effects. A lot of bad acting, even worse script and two cute Danish blonds add to the flavor. A good value!
