A sequel as good as the original in my opinion. Amazing soundtrack and another interesting story about the creature from the Black lagoon.

Ranks right up with the other Universal Monsters IMO. My elementary school showed it in the late 60s at a fair they held, still remember it.

This was my intro to the Gillman due to a 3D showing of it on local UHF. I still sentimentally love this movie, maybe even more than the original., though I KNOW the original is better. My full review of the trilogy can be found here: https://www.otherworldlyculture.com/archives/5705

A largely disappointing follow-up to 'Creature from the Black Lagoon'.

'Revenge of the Creature' attempts some positives, with an intention to see how the Gill-man behaves, but for the majority it's a repeat of the very good 1954 film - just in the United States, rather than Brazil. It's all pretty lacklustre in my opinion.

Neat to have Nestor Paiva, who I liked in the original, back, though he is the only main character (not counting Ricou Browning) to reprise their role. The newbies are alright, though do feel like carbon copies of the '54 trio - Lori Nelson is the pick here. Another cast member is a certain Clint Eastwood, who has a minor if decent cameo for his screen debut here - more on Mr. Eastwood below...

Overall, it's a tame sequel. Here's hoping 'The Creature Walks Among Us' improved upon this.

This marks the start of my Clint Eastwood watchathon. Between now and early February, I'm planning to watch Eastwood's entire acting/directing filmography. Why? Aside from him being a legendary name in cinema, it should also make for a fun journey through film from 1955 to 2021.
