As I've stated a few times, I really don't like much of what Hollywood is pumping out these days. It is mostly paint by numbers boring films, and ultra-lazy reboots that are pale comparisons to the originals. I've been searching out old films that are forgotten classics. One I just watched which was quite good is called The Valley Of Gwangi.
Despite being from 1969, the special effects hold up very well. I actually find these stop motion practical effects to be more believable than most CGI nowadays. Except for a couple small complaints I have, I find it to be a smarter film that most of the garbage lately. If you like monster movies with old fashioned pacing, give this one a try. You can even watch it online for free HERE. If you do watch it, let me know what you think.
Any suggestions for old or ancient classic movies that are completely forgotten? I don't care what era, B&W, silent, whatever. Not a huge drama person, but if it's a good period piece I may even watch it. Horror, War or SciFi films get an extra thumbs up.
