I'm glad you're enjoying things. As I...Thanks, Max. I'm glad you're enjoying things. As I'm sure you've discovered for yourself, this daily blogging is taxing. I'll have to rethink my approach for next year. <BR/><BR/><BR/>As to "Captive Wild Woman" I agree about Carradine. I just found the lion and tiger stuff hard to watch, and found that shot of Aquanetta's ape legs walking towards Evelyn Ankers' apartment to look a bit silly. No complaints about Aquanetta in human form from this end. There just seemed to be a lot of padding and the ending was real predictable. This in no way invalidates your own reaction to the movie.<BR/><BR/>Maybe my own response was so harsh after coming off the pleasant surprise of "Gorilla At Large." <BR/><BR/>Unlike "The Beast of Yucca Flats" I will most likely give this one another shot at some future date, something I can't say for Universal's "She-Wolf of London."John Rozumhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03626209473214085436noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13190497.post-49221275578076322702007-10-20T00:47:00.000-04:002007-10-20T00:47:00.000-04:00Man, oh man, did we ever have different experience...Man, oh man, did we ever have different experiences. I'd always heard the film was a turkey, but I found it a fun (if flawed) programmer that was paced fairly well. I liked Acquanetta in her human form (rrrRRRRrrr!!!) and her interim form. Good Jack Pierce makeup. A better ape-girl makeup than the werewolf makeup in the roughly contemporary RETURN OF THE VAMPIRE.<BR/><BR/>Carradine was very good in it, too, and had a better role in this film than many he played in low budget shockers.<BR/><BR/>Well, one man's trash, etc.<BR/><BR/>You are doing a bang-up job with your Halloween blogging. Thanks-- it's fun!Max the drunken severed headhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05373555992387523559noreply@blogger.com
