Review of Creature from the Black Lagoon (1954) by Corey S — 05 Feb 2018

I'll be disappointed, if we don't..

Creature From The Black Lagoon.

Unlike as its genre suggests it isn't scary or frightening at all even though the attempt is admirable and the background score work in its favour and addition to that what's appreciative here is that somehow they have managed to pull off the vision considering the restrictions or constrictions in visuals or technology. Creature From The Black Lagoon stands apart in respect to those Dark Universal features and yet is one of them for it doesn't just focuses only on an individual characters but gives enough range to each and every characters floating around the primary ones which shows the excellence in writing and even execution. The creature that was supposed to scare the bejesus out of the audience fails on so many level that it feeds only on its primary objective directed to it for it isn't saved by a performance like Boris Karloff or Lon Chaney. Creature From The Black Lagoon is intriguing enough for the audience to invest in it and even though it may not win them the whole package back it won't get petty or childish which was easily possible.
