The Mystery of Monster Island (1981)



Original title: Misterio en la Isla de los Monstruos

Fantasy/Sci-Fi/Adventure. Spain/USA. Starring Terence Stamp, Peter Cushing, David Hatton, Ian Sera, Blanca Estrada, Frank Braña, Paul Naschy, Gérard Tichy, Daniel Martín & Luis Barboo. Directed by Juan Piquer Simón.

CBS Fox Video (UK). English dubbed. Fullscreen.

I usually like J. P Simón's Jules Verne-films, but this is the exception: an abysmal film that doesn't work on any level. It will leave you irritated and annoyed at the poor level of filmmaking on display here. And Naschy fans needn't bother either: the lovable spanish bear is hardly in the film for a minute... 1/5

The Thief of Baghdad (1978)



Arabian fantasy. UK/France. Starring Kabir Bedi, Roddy McDowall, Roddy McDowall, Terence Stamp, Frank Finlay & Marina Vlady. Directed by Clive Donner.

Video Gems (USA). English language. Fullscreen.

Colorful arabian fantasy - very entertaining and totally undeserving of its obscurity. Kabir Bedi plays the dashing hero and a fine job he does. 4/5
