I guess I ain't that much of a zero after all lookin' at that schtootz.

I like it when he finishes off those two bleeping doctors especially the 2nd one.

the two faces of dr. Jekyll is always disatisfying for me. a very well-crafted film but hammer gets it wrong. we wait for kitty to get her comeuppance and she never really does. all hyde does is sic a snake on poor Christopher lee and schtooks kitty but what we are all really waiting for is hyde to make it clear to her who he really is. what a disappointment. creative hammer has her fall to her death through a skylight... brilliant!

they did! amc is the first place I saw KRONOS letterboxed and I think I still got that sucker on a vhs tape.

I saw it as a kid back in the mid 1960s on WPIX's chiller theatre. it's the phasing out sequences which make it an eerie masterpiece.

well, it certainly has that gaudy oversaturated 1950s technicolor look which always makes watching more pleasant. watched it a couple nites ago since it is a free on demand offering. nothing like watching an old 1950s oater before turning in.

has alotta good reviews on IMDb but I'm sorry I think it stunk. murphy is good but everyone seems unimpressed by his youthful age for some reason. movie starts off with the local crooked lawyer who looks like Ray Danton rustling the de mara family cattle. both audie's dad and kid brother are gunned down by rifle by the crooked lawyer meredith...then the murderous lawyer himself sends a condolence telegram to audie! what the...? audie shows up in santiago and tries to get a deputy badge from the crooked sheriff played by paul birch and his associate meredith the murderous lawyer. birch is not really believable as the crooked sheriff who's niece becomes audie's love interest. and of course dan duryea as happy go lucky killer outlaw whitey kincade who laughs at just about everything occurring in this turkey. the movie doesn't kinda add up to me. like why did the crooked lawyer and sheriff wait so long to rustle the de mara cattle? the movie suggests they've been operating for some time and audie wanders off and leaves his dad and kid brother at the mercy of such evil riff raff. russell johnson is the local drunken lowlife jed ringer who gets testy when his gorgeous girl abbe lane gets noticed. so here's audie murphy quick on the draw but decides to pal around with duryea who is unpredictably murderous as he tries to prove to dauntless audie a number of times. I just couldn't get too impressed with susan cabot as the crooked sheriff's niece. pretty but even virginia mayo was more adept at coming across sweeter. she seems kinda petulant throughout. and it seems an oversight that the age of audie's kid brother who was only like 16 years old is never touched upon. gorgeous abbe lane says she'll kill the sheriff herself if anything happens to jed ringer but after that she completely disappears from the movie. it has a lot of positive IMDb reviews but I think it's subpar. audie murphy is very amiable and heroic but they coulda made him a little smarter. anyway never mind riding clear of diablo I would ride clear of this film.

most of the great 1950s Hollywood biblical epics seem to have been shot by Leon Shamroy.

when Bob introduced movies on amc it was a time when amc's content was movies and they were shown uncut and without commercials. it was the first place I saw KRONOS letterboxed.

emmy shoulda married Oscar years ago.

I didn't know saito was gonna stick a shiv in Nicholson.

shears shoulda stayed back at the hospital with the pretty English nurse.

always a good watch... crap! where's the scene of the lady screaming after rhedosaurus eats the cop? darn.

screw a cruddy five minutes for cagney. he deserved the whole picture built around him.

I have tiny feet too 5 just like the duke. I am often complemented for my catlike stealth.

Nicholson was either nuts when he got there after a hot forced march through the jungle or the oven overcooked his cookies. james Donald sums it up best "madness!" "my officers will not do manual labor." "we shall see!"

I hope the theme does justice to the Isaac hayes classic. there is only one shaft and Roundtree is he. best version of the theme is performed by erich kunzel and the Cincinnati pops.

call me Hector.

how do I look?

the happiest gangster

are there any outtakes of widmark as Tommy Udo? we need more of widmark as smilin' Tommy.

also Back To Bataan with Duke Wayne. and of course the wise and beneficent Master khan.
