Creature From The Black Lagoon
1954
Jack Arnold
Avant-Garde, Black & White, Monsters, Must-See
'Creature From The Black Lagoon' Plot Summary: When scientists exploring the Amazon River stumble on a “missing link” connecting humans and fish, they plan to capture it for later study. But the Creature has plans of his own, and has set his sights on the lead scientist's beautiful fiancée, Kay.
A must-see masterpiece, this slow and creepy, black and white flick is beyond beautiful.
The gill man became an instant part of Americana, there are two sequels.
The iconic scene where she is swimming and the monster is following her; people in the theatres screamed and viewers reported having nightmares for weeks.
This film does have a sequel we recommend watching, 'Revenge Of The Creature' (1955), and we also recommend watching 'The Shape of Water' (2017), which feels like a spiritual remake.
Directed by Jack Arnold, also known for 'Monster On The Campus' (1958), 'The Incredible Shrinking Man' (1957), 'Revenge Of The Creature' (1955), 'It Came from Outer Space' (1953), and 'Tarantula' (1955).
'Creature From The Black Lagoon' cast features: Julie Adams, Richard Carlson, Ben Chapman and Ricou Browning as the creature.
