Rating: - REVENGE IS NOT SO SWEET FOR THIS CREATURE!
'Revenge of the Creature' is a pretty good sequel to the original but, there are several reasons for it not receiving a 5 star rating like the first movie. First of all, I find the changes to the Creature's head piece a big mistake. The "fish-like" eyes on the original were replaced with "bug-like" eyes or bulging eyes and the head is very fat and round shaped. This makes the Creature look sort of fake to me. They also didn't bring Ben Chapman back to play "The Gillman" on land in this film. I found ... Read More
Rating:  - Bad movie
The only reason I saw this movie is because it was on Mystery science theater 3000. John Agar is a terrible actor and watching this movie is like waiting in the lobby of a dentist office waiting to get your teeth drilled..
Rating:  - REVENGE OF THE CREATURE
THE SECOND CREATURE FILM I THOUGHT WAS REALLY GOOD. I LOVED THE MARINA SETTING IN FLORIDA AND ALL THE ACTION IT SHOWED. AND THE CREATURE REALLY GOT SOME GOOD REVENGE ON HUMANS, ESPECIALLY THE PARTY CRASHER SCENE, AND THE WINDOW PEEPING SCENES WERE REALLY FUNNY WHERE THE CREATURE SEEMED BREATHLESS.

I THOUGHT THE AMAZON ... Read More

I was going to say that "Revenge of the Creature," the sequel to the classic Universal monster movie "The Creature from the Black Lagoon" presages "Jaws 3," but the whole idea of bringing back the monster to civilization goes back at least to "King Kong." The story for this 1955 sequel is that the creature is captured in his secluded Amazon waterway and brought back to a Marineland in northern Florida where it can be exhibited, er, studied. John Agar ("Tarantula," "Brain From Planet Arous") is Professor ... Read More
Rating:  - Return to the Black Lagoon
Being the first of two sequels to a famous 1950's horror classic like "Creature From the Black Lagoon" any film would have its work cut out for it. Indeed "Revenge Of The Creature" certainly lacks that sense of confinement and eerie mystery that was so beautifully put across in the first film and which undoubtedly helped it become the great classic that it still is. The best way to view this film is to see it as an independant production and look at it for its own merits as entertainment.
