Rating: - Gorgo is great..but at London's expense!!
This is a great version of a huge monster gone upset because its offspring has been messed with by unsuspecting humans. At the expense of some big time London landmarks big mama lizard comes into the city looking for it's abducted youth who's being held captive in a watery pit as a circus attraction. The film transfer of this oldie but goodie has stood the test of conversion for dvd. The movie looks great and so do the red eyed beasts. This is a must for any monster film buff's collection! Have fun ... Read More
Rating:  - 'LIKE NOTHING YOU'VE EVER SEEN'
I have to admit i love this movie. Growing up as a kid, i always use to love watching the classic dinosaur movies. Wether it was stop motion animation or the man in the rubber suit routine like the Godzilla movies. Wether or not you like Gorgo, this movie has the most realistic, incredible special effects out of most of the giant monster films. No stop motion animation here, just an actor in a rubber suit stomping through miniatures. You'll have to squint your eyes pretty close to tell if the ... Read More
Rating:  - worse then "Plan 9 from Outer Space"
As far as I'm concerned this was the worst movie of all time. The movie that usualy lays claim to the title of worst movie of all time ("Plan 9 from Outer Space") was at least fun to laugh at. This is a boring groaner from the get go.
This starts out with a storyline that is completely forgotten a few minutes in. This is just a lame swipe of other monster movies. The monster is poorly done and the editing is so poor it's a laugh when the explosions don't match the reactions of the monster. ... Read More
Rating:  - Edited Print, Defective Audio
The first thing you should know about VCI's "Gorgo-Widescreen Destruction Edition" is that it is missing about 2 or 3 minutes of footage, confirmed by the fact that its running time has been reduced to 73 minutes, although the box lists the full 76 minute version. The first problem you will encounter when watching the films is during Angelo Lavagnino's excellent opening score when there seems to be an echo effect, as if the stereo tracks where out of sync with each other, resulting in the music becoming ...

Rating: - Good film, Bad print!
This is one of those films I saw as a child that stuck with me for a long time. There was some great people behind the camera on this film, Oscar winning Director of Photography Freddie Young.(Lawrence of Arabia, Doctor Zhivago, Ryans Daugther.) Also oscar winning photographic effects man Tom Howard. A cast that works, including one of the first roles for John Wood,(Wargames, Ladyhawke.) as the man in the street saying "The End Is Near".Great music too. I just wish that someone would find a good print of ... Read More
