Movie Reviews of Trog

Movie Review: Forget Citizen Kane!
Summary: 5 Stars

You can have your Citizen Kanes and your Seventh Seals and your Godfathers. Give me TROG! This is by far one of the greatest films ever produced. Starring the one and only Betty Davis, uh I mean Joan Crawford, it has lasted the test of time and will only get better as more children are shown this great piece of art. Ms. Crawford stars as a passionate scientist who only wants to connect with a savage beast that has been found in the the caves of rural England. It is truly Shelleyesque to see the gentle creature attacked and scorned for its natural behavior. Among the many town people who are afraid of TROG is the old timer who played Alfred in the Tim Burton Batman films. He is actually the real villain of the film and his evil antics finally catch up with him in a terrifying scene with TROG that is part Empire Strikes Back and part Richard the Third. My girlfriend and I shared a bottle of Duvel as we watched this film and it was one of the great moments in our life. I had seen it many times before but this was her first viewing. After the tragic finale I looked over to see tears running down her face. She didn't even cry at the end of Scindler's List! So please do yourself a favor and throw out your Herzog and crappy French New Wave. Open your eyes, heart, and soul and watch TROG!

Movie Review: I Wish He Was My Neighbor!
Summary: 5 Stars

Trog was recommended to me by a good friend as his favorite film. I can understand why! This is surely the best "bad" movie I've ever seen! Whenever Trog is center screen, unintentional hilarity does ensue. I found this a laugh riot at times! For those snobs who think this is a turkey, you are not willing to accept the fact that so-called "bad" movies can be more entertaining than regular ones; sometimes movies that are critically acclaimed are boring,and while this never was exactly up for any oscars (hahaha!), it cannot be said that Trog is boring. And the charcter Trog,he is the most charismatic figure I've ever seen on film, practically; he's certainly up there with Fonzie in my book. This movie provided me with the funniest things I've seen since "Borat". I recommend it to anyone who loves a good "bad" movie. It is surely amongst the kings of the genre. I'd love to mention specific scenes, but I don't want to leave spoilers. Much more fun than watching junk like "Thirteen", now THAT is a bad movie. Nobody can mess with Trog!

Movie Review: Best Of the Bad

Really a 1 star movie, if that, if you're looking for "good movies." This is a CLASSIC bad movie starring one of the greatest actresses ever if you're looking for a great BAD movie, though. Hits DVD on 6/26. Without a douybt one omf the worst movies ever made. Already pre-ordered from Amazon!!!!!

Movie Review: No, Trog!!!
Summary: 5 Stars

Campy Joan Crawford at her best AND worst! It's a hilarious movie with incredibly primitive make-up (Trog AND JC!) and even worse 'special effects.' Whether you're a fan of JC, movie kitsch, or heavy eyebrows (Trog AND JC!), you'll LOVE this DVD!
