Review of Trog (1970) by Christopher L — 16 Sep 2015
I think we should clarify the history of man's origins.
A distant cave in the countryside is discovered to have depths no one has investigated before. A new life form is discovered that is very violent. An anthropologist works well with the animal/creature and begins teaching it methods of communication. One day it flies off the deep end and puts the anthropologist's efforts at risk.
"What I described is the lifecycle of Trog.".
Freddie Francis, director of Dracula has Risen from the Grave, Tales from the Crypt, The Creeping Flesh, Son of Dracula, The Ghoul, and Legend of the Werewolf delivers Trog. The storyline for this picture was just okay but worth following. The special effects were very average and the acting was just okay. The cast includes Joan Crawford, Michael Gough, and Bernard Kay.
"I can always use a trained assistant.".
I randomly came across this on Turner Classic Movies (TCM) and had to DVR it since it starred the legendary Joan Crawford. The plot for this movie was below par, and the acting was just okay, but it was cool seeing Crawford in this type of picture. This is nothing special as an addition to the horror genre but worth watching for fans of the genre and this era.
"I'm afraid it's a dead cave.".
Grade: C-.
