Directed by Roger Corman. Written by Charles B. Griffith. Starring Dick Miller, Barboura Morris, Bert Convy, Ed Nelson, Julian Burton, John Brinkley and Antony Carbone.
Plot: a strange man starts making sculptures out of humans.
A bumbling busboy only wants to fit in, but he never can seem to. Finally, after accidentally killing his landlord’s cat and turning it into a “sculpture” he starts being recognized. He’s even revered for his newfound genius. After that, he goes after human models, killing them and turning them into sculptures, too. At first we liked him and the innovation was unique enough, but then he started to go after good people and we were done.
In general, DJ found the movie a little more interesting than I did. I was a little bored actually in certain parts, but it was a cool story. The ending was enjoyable as well. And as always, Dick Miller is kick ass.
I suppose I could list my favorite movies here, but instead I'll give you a strange glimpse into what makes me TaraRomero.
1. My favorite place in the world is Atlantic City. The food, the smells, the beach - I love it all.
2. I am particularly good at crafting. Especially scrapbooking and cross-stitch.
3. I am mixed. My dad is black and my mom is white. I'm very proud of both sides of myself.
4. My favorite food is either the cheesesteak or the hoagie. Not the sub, not the grinder, the hoagie. Totally different experience.
5. I have a number of pen pals I write snail mail to. We exchange stickers and little gifts sometimes, too. I have an extensive sticker collection.
6. I just reconnected with my father after 15+ years. It's going great so far. I've missed him.
7. My brother is my best friend, hence the reason we do this together.
8. I don't have a favorite book. I like too many to have a favorite. But Paul Zindel is my favorite author. Stephen King and Jane Austen are close seconds. I know, eclectic.
9. I'm not very religious at all. I consider myself agnostic.
10. I would say that my most prized possessions are my dogs, but I don't consider them possessions. I consider them people. They are my people.
