Monster Island (1981)


Dear all,

I need some help from you. The movie is called MONSTER ISLAND (1981) and also known as;

Jules Verne's 'Mystery on Monster Island' (USA) (TV title)
Misterio en la isla de los monstruos
Mystery on Monster Island

Some people gave their comment to this movie and it feels like I'm the only one that likes it. Actually, I loved it when I was kid and unfortunately my little brothers overwrite it on VHS.
So this is the thing, I would really like to watch this movie again but I can’t find it anywhere for download (I tried to by it but buying for my country – CROATIA - isn’t possible).
You can contact me on my e-mail [email protected]

PLEASE HELP.

Thank you in advance.

Buying it ANYWHERE Is not possible for now. I've looked. Apparently it's never been commercially released for DVD or VHS sale. Too bad. It's one of the worst movies ever made and I collect those, if only to point out to others how NOT to make movies.

It can be purchased on DVD through RetroFlicks: http://retroflicks.com/shop/store/Mystery_on_Monster_Island_Peter_Cushing.html?mv_arg=00132 (may have to copy and paste that). But this version appears to be missing a whole reel toward the middle, or at least a very generous portion. Still, you take what you can get.

It is now available on DVD in the MGM Midnite Movies series. It is part of a 2-disc set featured with Gorilla at Large

Watching it now on the Movie channel. Made for kids, a Saturday afternoon movie for mom and the little ones. For the rest of us it is amazing to watch for nostalgic reasons. Helps to be doing something else at the same time - for me it's playing on the iPad.
