50 Years Ago: The Island at the Top of the World (1974)
Fifty years ago, I was five years old, and at that tender young age I dreamed of "lost worlds of fantasy," as I call them as a cri...

Last year at around this time (or a month earlier, perhaps), I posted galleries of cinematic and TV spaceships from the 1970s, 1980s, 1... -
The robots of the 1950s cinema were generally imposing, huge, terrifying, and of humanoid build. If you encountered these metal men,...
Hmmm, let's see....maybve #1 is Antonio Bay from the Fog, #2 is Maximum Overdrive, and #3 is, well, Tremors???

No kiddin'-
ReplyDeleteI gotta go tunr in my fan card now! lol
I was going to say the Fog for 1 also.
ReplyDeleteIs 2 from The Faculty and 3 from Duel ? Not sure about 1
John has decided to be cruel and run these photos without the clues... but these three are random enough that they call for clues. All three photos feature locations from atomic monster movies... the first was supposed to be the edge of an unstable island in the South Pacific... the ballpark in the second photo wasn't there when a giant bug surprised a couple of scientists sitting on the nearby rocks... the third photo is taken at an intersection where police encountered an atomic mutation and investigated an alien sighting, in 1953 and 1954(two different movies)...
ReplyDeleteWe're still 0, 0, 0 on these three. They are very tough.
ReplyDeleteHere's a clue: think 1950s...

Joe...you wuss. :)
ReplyDeleteWe only needed a couple of little clues:-) Thank you, Joe and John.
ReplyDelete#1 - the shrinking isolated island in the Pacific was the site of the "Attack of the Crab Monsters":-)
#2 - The giant bug (ant) surprised the scientists in "Them".
#3 - The Police encountered the atomic mutated "Tarantula".
Just taking a stab at the other movie Joe alluded to...was it "It Came From Outer Space"?
I have enjoyed this very much. I had all three of the first photos figured out but didn't post my answers.
Thank you Joe and John for taking the time to entertain us with your wonderful photos, clues and posts!
Happy Halloween!
