Movie Review: Lobsterman From Mars



Got this on a whim from Netflix. LOVED IT!  Low budget, intentionally. It's really a movie within a movie. The only annoying bit is that they keep breaking out of the movie to remind you of that, but that's ok, because you get to enjoy a performance by Tony Curtis.

It was too scary for my son, but my husband and I still enjoyed it. The dialogue is hysterical in places. There is a gumshoe who is in the movie for no good reason and whose monologues keep getting interrupted and he doesn't even have the best lines.

Lobster Man From Mars is high on camp. The monsters are wonderful. You have flying furry bat lobsters (and of course you can see the wires). A gorilla lobster helmeted thing and of course, Lobsterman himself. If you enjoyed The Lost Skeleton of Cadavra, and let's face it, who didn't? You will enjoy this movie.
