Saw this on TCM on Halloween
TCM did a great Boris Karloff film marathon on Halloween night. This was the only one that was in color, and it was used to great effect with the glowing green stones and all. I had never heard of this movie before, but it was a very strange coincidence that, after I put my kids to bed, the movie "The Body Snatchers" was on, as I had just read the Robert Louis Stevenson short story the night before! So I caught the end of "Body Snatchers" and then was treated to "Die, Monster, Die!" which was a very pleasant surprise. I guess because I didn't have any expectations about it, I enjoyed it very much and I am surprised it isn't more well known. I suppose if it was a famous classic, then it wouldn't have seemed like so much fun since I would have had high expectations. I especially liked seeing Patrick Magee, who I always think of as the old man who uses "classical" conditioning for revenge in Stanley Kubrick's "A Clockwork Orange," looking like almost exactly the same guy.
"Enough of that technical talk, Foo!"
