Elvis D @Elvis-Del-Valle Oct 24, 2023 Die, Monster, Die! es una película de terror y ciencia ficción de esas muy decentes de la época. Es otra de las grandes obras protagonizadas por Boris Karloft, quien tiene un gran nivel de fama en el cine de terror. La única falla que la película tiene es ser una adaptación de uno de los relatos de Lovecraft, ya que se distancia de su fuente original. Tomando en cuenta el presupuesto de aquel entonces, no era del todo posible replicar la visión de Lovecraft, pero la película ofrece una premisa interesante. Hasta los efectos especiales son un deleite para las películas de este tipo. No es una adaptación destacable de Lovecraft, pero como película es bastante aceptable y otro clásico fascinante. Mi calificación para esta película es un 8/10. See more Dean W @RT14742728 Sep 25, 2023 Love this movie. It has all the tropes of classic horror and the atmosphere is what sells it. The sets, the actors the music and sound and yes the effects though they are not the greatest evoke a doomed quality that was intended. See more Stu B @RT12689018 Mar 8, 2023 An intriguing premise--a young American travels to England to hook up with his fiancee and meet her reclusive mom and spooky dad at their enormous countryside estate--is quickly sabotaged by an uneventful script, mostly lame acting, and a bizarre, sci-fi finale that is completely at odds with the promising horror flick vibe that preceded it. Nick Adams displays little range as the boyfriend and Suzan Farmer lacks dimension as the girl; only Boris Karloff as the father, in one of the final performances of his long career, offers a performance worth watching. The real question is why the filmmakers abandoned the eerie creepiness of the early scenes--scary townsfolk, a big, mysterious house, and the sense that SOMETHING sinister is going on, even if we don't quite know what it is yet--only to introduce, in blink-and-you'll-miss-it fashion, a handful of ultra-low budget special effects at the very last minute. If only "Die Monster, Die" was as exciting--hell, even as comically cheesy--as its title. Not recommended.

See more william d @acsdoug Jan 11, 2021 Below average 1960s horror film fare. See more Mar 30, 2018 A rather wild and emotional creature feature with the always enjoyable Karloff in the leading role. Though the faceless creatures are poorly done, this is otherwise a film with excellent sets, cast, and is well edited. The really wild thing is that in a very small way this film gets radiation exposure correct - in that germinating seeds are more robust when grown in soil which is rich in radioactive isotopes. In fact both plant & animal cells become sluggish to the point of death if isolated from natural background radiation... nuclear energy enables our very lives in that respect!
