Are you a black-and-white B-movie buff like me? Not? Well, it oughta be! You are missing some great movies. Some are so bad they're good, if only for entertainment value. A few good ones are great! Either way we are all classics in my book. Many, many great sci-fi classic has come from this decade, far more than 10 No, I had to choose. So, here are some of my favorites.
10 Journey to the Center of the Earth: 1959
This sci-fi adventure follows a team of researchers, (3 men and women) down extinct Icelandic volcano, which leads to the center of the Earth. By the way, they encounter floods, dinosaurs, giant Gila monster, and as always, the evil enemy who is trying to stop and / or kill them, so that he can reach the center in the first place.
At a time when women have little power and independence, it was one of the first films to show women as strong and capable team member, but a helpless damsel in distress. This is a great special effects for the time. With big stars like James Mason, Pat Boone and Arlene Dahl, it was above his head a typical sci-fi film a decade. I have not seen the remake.
9 Invaders From Mars: 1953
Scared to be-Jesus out of me the first time I saw him! It starts with a young David one night star gazing out his bedroom window. He sees a flying saucer lands in the sand near his home. He runs to warn his parents and he insists that his father had to go investigate. His father disappeared into the sand pit, and not return until the next morning ... but he 'changed' somehow. He sees a scar on the back of his father's neck and realized something had happened to him.
nightmare spreads as well as many local residents are also slowly 'changing'. Nobody believes that David at first, but eventually persuades a scientist and doctor lady that something is very wrong. Together they foil the invasion and save svijet.Mumija as Martians and their disembodied head-in-the-fishbowl, multi-appendaged leaders are particularly 'creepy.' Remakes ok, but I liked the best.
8 20,000 Leagues Under the Sea: 1954
Visually appealing interpretation of the Jules Verne classic, this movie has inspired several film interpretations of the successful TV series. This was the first and only sci-fi film produced by Walt Disney himself, and one of the best of the genre.
to the star cast, including Kirk Douglas, James Mason and Peter Lorre, the story of a naval officer and his crew, who were assigned the task of research disappearances of ships at sea by 'sea monster'. Soon discovers 'monster' is actually a submarine boat take a sinister, enigmatic Captain Nemo, who has one goal in life is to bring peace to the world destroying everything in the world of war craft. Great adventure and special effects.
7.Stvar (from space): 1951
Anyone remember the lawman from Gunsmoke, James Arness? Well, this was his first film. He plays the thing, being that crash landed in the frozen Arctic, some time in the distant past. His ship and frozen bodies were discovered by a group of research scientists. They cut it in a block of ice and take him back to the research station, where he accidentally thawed out.
soon discovers that it is a carnivorous predator when scientists began killing and feeding on their blood. "It's a very intelligent and starts sabotaging his research station. Then they find out that it's really 'plant' just looks humanoid. They kill him, but it is 7 feet tall and seemingly impervious to all of their weapons. Fortunately for them, one of the researchers is a woman who in her feminine wisdom says: "Well ... how to kill the tail ... you can cook!" Ah, people! What would they do without us!
6.Blob: 1958
If you like the Steve McQueen movie, it's got to be a favorite. It was one of his first films. He plays a teenager on a date with his girlfriend, when they saw a meteor fall in the forest near the town. On the way to explore, meet people in trouble with the 'sticky point' covering his hands and arms. They took him into the car and take him to a local doctor for help.
Then, the doctor, his sister and the old man disappear. Before long, other people begin to disappear. Next thing you know, it goo-ball has grown into a giant wad of rolling Jell-o, it absorbs everything in sight. After seeing this movie, I could sit in a dark theater without constantly watching the film room. Again, better than the remake!
5.Fly: 1958
What can I say! This is a story of extreme infection! Film tells the scientists attempt to create a carrier thing, and the experiment that goes horribly awry. On the test machine on himself, unaware that he is not alone in the chamber ... until it is too late.
After seeing the film, we ran around our yard check every spider web of flies with white glavama.Filmske stars Vincent Price and David Hedison. It has spawned several sequels and remakes, which are surprisingly good.
4 Creature from the Black Lagoon: 1954
Put the jaws hit the big screen, we were all scared of the water "creature", reptilian appearance, the man-beast with the Hots for Pretty Woman (Julie Adams), he sees bathing in its domain, the Amazon River. It was love at first sight. He becomes a man-beast on a mission as he tries to catch his lady love. There were two sequels, Revenge of the Creature and Creature Walks among Us ... both equally horrible!
3 Godzilla: 1956
Still the best prehistoric, radiation breathing dinosaur monster movie ever made. First released as a 1954 Japanese movie called Gojira, it is enhanced for the American release of recordings by adding starring Raymond Burr and English soundtrack.
Americans are testing bombs in the South Pacific. Now there's a giant, radioactive dinosaur rises from the sea and attacked Tokyo. What do you do? After several attacks on the city, a scientist with a very effective 'bomb' saved his day. It has inspired many sequels, including the updated 1998 remake. He loved too !!
2 The day the earth stood still 1951
Still appears regularly on TV, this was the first 'convincing' alien from outer space movie. Unlike the recent remake, which is heavy on special effects, the original is well-written sci-fi drama and focuses more on the story.
Klaatu, an alien ambassador of good will on a mission of peace and his peacekeeper robots Gort, arrive on Earth during the early days of space exploration and atomic bombs testiranje.Izvanzemaljski Confederation on a punishing violence and aggression among its members and the planet Earth is one of their regional authorities. He brings us a quote, and a warning: The end of our warring, violent way, join the association and live, or face destruction of their enforcer robot force
.
2008 remake is actually a continuation of this great movie. Obviously, we did not hear the warning!
And now, the best classic science fiction film 50 -... (drum roll, please)
1 War of the Worlds: 1953
In my opinion, this is the Grand-daddy of all sci-fi alien invasion movies! Inspiration for many, many movies and TV shows, it is based on the HG Wells sci-fi classic.
It covers three days, during which the world's Martian invasion almost destroyed čovječanstvo.Invaders down into targets such as ships and begin forming Terra Earth-ray zapping people to the planet. We are helpless to stop them, and all seems lost, until they suddenly everyone is dying of mysterious infection caused by viruses are immune to.
This is an excellent special effects technology of time. My favorite scene is when an attacker to send his roving eye 'camera' in the basement of a house where two people, scientists, and a lovely lady (played by Gene Barry and Ann Robinson) were utočište.Znanstvenik chop the head off the camera, which comes from foreigners to enter the house to investigate. With their attention focused on what is happening out there, not to notice him sneaking up behind them. He reaches out and catches her by the shoulders ... Yikes!
I loved the original, but I have to admit, 2005 remake of the horrible way, and definitely has his own!
