"Moon of the Wolf" and "The She Gods of Shark Reef"
"Moon of the Wolf" 1972 TV movie
This was quite a relief after the first two offerings in the "50 SCI-FI CLASSICS" collection. A well acted TV film with David Jansen as the Sheriff on the trail of a werewolf. Dated, but aren't we all, and predictable but nicely paced. A reasonable 9/10 for David Jansen's and Barbara Rush's flirting and Bradford Dillman's fit on the porch!
Roger Corman's "The She Gods of Shark Reef" 1958
Oh dearie, dearie me! I had to watch this in two halves because I thought I was getting sea sick! Not good! Terrible grainy transfer from VHS, bad acting, terrible dialogue. It's almost like it was made as the epitome of 1950s "B Movies", throw away stuff to get money out of teenagers at drive-ins. An unremarkable -3/10 because the only things that acted well were the sharks!
That's 4 down 46 to go.
