"Night of the Living Dead"

George Romero's classis is still relevant today in my opinion.

Creature from the Black Lagoon

I double that. I used to swim in a pond as a kid and I would put on my flippers and pretend I was the Creature. Good time.

I never really "got" the "Creature from the Black Lagoon" movies... I watched them... Thought they were OK and that was about it. When it came to the Universal Studios monsters I would rate the rate the creature beneath all the rest of them.

Just never clicked with me.

I know it sounds dumb, but the old Universal Studios monsters seemed too far-fetched for me as a kid. I knew I wasn't going to be in a far-off land in some castle type place to ever run into them. Don't get me wrong, I did like them and I spent many Friday late nights watching the shows as a kid, but I grew up swimming in ponds, creeks, and rivers. The types of places I could see myself "running" into the Creature in my day-to-day life. As an adult I've watched the movies again and I really never realized how cheesy they are, but I still love them.

Yeah, I know what you're saying...

I was taken to see "Dracula" & "Frankenstein" (by a babysitter) when I was about 5 and they scared the bejesus out of me!

But I was only 5.

Something that always seems to come up is Freaks,

Creature from the Black lagoon is a favorite, I even like the sequels. Two different actors played the creature, one for the land scenes and a different one for the underwater scenes. I believe Rico Browning who did the underwater scenes is still alive

There was a sequel to Creature from Black Lagoon ..? ( edited: yep, i just searched it - and it was a sequel under a different title)

i maybe misunderstanding... cuz back in those old black and white days, i cannot recall any sequels at all.
In those days and eras, black and white movies were one and done.

Which i wonder what movie(s) or movie studios, ..began influencing the start of movie sequels, ..once theaters and TV began implementing " Color" visual into our lives and culture ?

As a kid, i really was freaked out by the " giant" tarantula in The Incredible Shrinking Man.

If i myself, were the Shrinking Man, ..how and what would i do if i had to survive a giant Tarantula in the same basement i am in too ?
