Discuss It Came from Beneath the Sea

Since IMDB shut up shop, I've really missed discussing these films and others from my childhood. No-one's posted here yet but hopefully, in time we can get a decent community going, where these works of art can be appreciated.

Ever since the stop-motion "King Kong" (1933) appeared, I've been a fan of this frame-by-frame art form that "makes the fantastic real." Puppetry and the "man in the rubber suit" can only go so far, and one slip in production can turn a "stomping through Tokyo" SF film into camp or comedy. (Sorta like the mistimed language dubs of Hong Kong's Kung Fu movies.) DFX has rendered it's way into Fantasy/Horror/SF, which can create "a cast of thousands" in the computer that look "real enough."

I haven't seen this film in years. We can all have our chance to see it again in a few weeks. If you look on the MeTV schedule two weeks out, it will be on Svengoolie on Saturday night, March 09, 2019, at 8:00 pm eastern time. Loved Kenneth Tobey in "The Thing From Another World."
