Everyone who has ever known me is well aware of my total love for horror and sci-fi films made in the 1950's.
This movie is one of my all time favorites!! A young man on a small island in the South Pacific is executed for talking to Americans stationed there and he threatens to come back and kill everyone who is responsible for his death. Well come back he does, as Tabonga, a weird walking tree monster with an unforgettable face!!
This is a typical example of the "anything goes" monster films being made in that time period.
This film has had a lot of bad things written about it, and while it may not be the best film ever written or made it is a hell of a lot more entertaining than anything made today.
Warner brings this film out in a proper widescreen ration and the print is excellent!! If you haven't seen this yet, check it out!! Tabonga Rules!!!!
