Rating:  - Terrible Movie, Terrific Commentary
To begin with, this one shot wonderless piece of hackneyed film-flam is not worth the time it takes to rent it from Netflix. Until you listen to Joe Bob Briggs, that is.
The commentary is a redeeming factor. In fact, it is the only saving grace. Hilarious, informative and full of the questions most normal viewers ask while watching this movie (Why???? WHAT?).
The story is pretty complex (that's called sarcasm). Jesse James and his bohunk buddy fail to rob a wagon train ... Read More
Rating: - Ripped From The Pages Of Yesterday's Headlines!
Yessiree, this here is just how it all happened. Jesse James (John Lupton) and Hank Tracy (towering behemoth Cal Bolder) were minding their own business, robbing a stagecoach, when, -BAM!- They were double-crossed by one of the notorious wild bunch! Sheriff MacPhee (Jim "Monster From Green Hell" Davis) attempted a capture, but Jesse and Hank got away. Sadly, Hank was shot and didn't have long to live. Thankfully, our "heroes" came across a friendly mexican family willing to help out. Beautiful daughter ... Read More
Rating:  - The other half of the "Billy the Kid vs. Dracula" twin-bill
I think it is safe to say that more people have heard about "Billy the Kid versus Dracula," the 1966 drive-in flick that had John Carradine hamming it up as the vampire count who is involved in a love triangle with the infamous American outlaw suddenly turned good guy, than have actually seen the film. But somehow I managed to remain ignorant of "Jesse James Meets Frankenstein's Daughter," made by the same writer (Carl K. Hittleman) and same director (William Beaudine) that same year (1966). Part of the ... Read More
Rating:  - William Beaudine Made Over 500 Films. This Is One Of Them.
This is an amazing film. It is the last film ever made by William "One Shot" Beaudine, and was a real resume killer for almost everyone in the cast as well. This is the sequel to "Billy The Kid Versus Dracula" (Beaudine's second to last film) which starred John Carradine. Carradine said that "Billy The Kid Versus Dracula" was the worst movie he ever made. That is saying something coming from John Carradine. Now imagine that this film is the sequel. I have seen both, and I think that "Billy The Kid Versus ... Read More
Rating: - Great movie? No. Great commentary? Of course!
I can't speak for anyone else, but I bought this DVD solely for the Joe Bob Briggs commentary. I would watch him late at night on MonsterVision and always thought he was hilarious, and could also improve a film by interjecting interesting facts about it. He's a very well educated and talented writer and has a fantastic screen and voice presence. That makes him great on stuff like this.
"The stuff" in question... isn't so good. I love schlocky B-movies as much as the next person, but Jesse James ... Read More
