Review Detail

An improvement over the "Creature from the Black Lagoon" entry in the B+ Movies series, TISM feels almost like a modern movie with its wealth of visuals and special effects and psychological insights into its characters. This is a classic, iconic movie for a reason and without all the filler, we're free to ponder man's eternal and greatest nemeses: basement spiders, angry cats, radioactivity and not being able to reach stuff because you're too short. An excellent preservation of a movie that feels timeless and endlessly fun, if much bleaker than I remembered. I can't wait to dive deeper into the B+ movie series, keep up the good work, Scribbling Man!
