CREATURE FROM THE BLACK LAGOON 1954 (UNIVERSAL)

On March 5, 1954 the terror began!

On that day this classic film premiered across the US and became a classic of the horror genre. Richard Carlson stars along with Richard Denning and gorgeous Julie Adams in this tale about the discovery of a half human half fish monster in a tributary of the Amazon River.

Universal made this film top notch and it still holds up very well today. Ricou Browning plays the monster underwater and Ben Chapman plays him on land. The monster traps the explorers in the tributary and they find themselves fighting for their lives. The rest of the cast includes Nestor Pavia, Antonio Moreno and Whit Bissell.

Julie Adams will always have a place in my heart as nobody will ever look as she did in a white one piece bathing suit swimming in the Amazon while the Creature follows her. An ALL TIME CLASSIC!! Highly Recommended!!
