Review of The Norliss Tapes (1973) by Steve G — 12 Apr 2010
There are a few moments where this made-for-TV movie is dated and unintentionally funny but overall I enjoyed it. The story is pretty good and I like the "film noir" type voiceover narration by the main character.
The movie is not gory at all but has some decent thrills and chills at a 70's era level. I was a little distracted by the monster's blue skin and I don't know if that was a quirk of the makeup artists or degradation of the original film quality.
One final note: the film ends very abruptly with a major unanswered question and a teaser for a sequel that apparently was never made.
