The Hound of the Baskervilles (1959)

  Detective Sherlock Holmes and his assistant, Doctor Watson, are assigned to a peculiar case ; a nobleman's life is threatened when he visits a property which will soon be inherited by him. The actual threat is an old legend that has a wild dog from hell roaming the grounds and killing all members of the Baskerville family...
  Hammer Films' prolific studios were suppliers of quality horror movies such as this throughout the 50's and the 60's. In this movie, the famous book by Sir Arthur Conan Doyle is brought to life. Terence Fisher goes behind the wheel once again and brings us a pure vintage and classy mystery film that is hard not to like. In my humble opinion, it is unfortunate that horror films evolved into something so much different than these productions. I miss the storytelling and the visual effects and I miss getting scared by something other than just sudden sound effects!
  The combination of actors in this film couldn't fail even if they wanted to. Peter Cushing and Christopher Lee have appeared in so many Hammer films together that it is almost impossible to see one and not think of the other. While they usually play rivaling characters, here Cushing is actually helping Lee stay alive and intact. André Morell follows and makes sure every clue is collected and Marla Landi is the mandatory female character in the story. And guess what; she is a tricker!
Must watch this : on a windy night. Turn off any lights in your house and light up a candle. Cook up a mushroom velvet soup and enjoy this fucker with a side drink of brandy.

Rio Bravo (1959)

  Small town Sheriff John T. Chance has to deal with a violent gang that terrorizes his town. When he the brother of the gang's leader is put behind bars, the attacks start becoming more common. The sheriff enlists the help of some local townspeople; a cripple, a drunk and a young wanna-be-gunfighter...
   Howard Hawks directs what seems to be just another average western/comedy/romance film. Very typical of that time but what is not typical is the addition of John Wayne in the cast. Having Wayne by its side, the film manages to spiral within the limitations of its genre but gives off a satisfying air of change. You know something was about to change in the genre by watching this film. All cliches are here but in a different way plus every persona in the story is cult enough to stand on its own. Cliches+cult personas=a good entertainment!
  John Wayne plays a role he had plenty of years by then to master. It is like Wayne does not even act (not in the negative kind of way) but simply acts as himself. Dean Martin clearly is more than your angelic voice but pulls through his role quite easily and pleasantly. Walter Brennan is the story's verbal punching bag and so brings a lot of humor especially when contradicted with young and fresh Ricky Nelson! Angie Dickinson plays the mandatory female role, mandatory due to production's politically-correctness, but I just can't see her at John Wayne's side!
Must watch this : on a hot summer afternoon, after having a light lunch of season vegetables. Chill out with your herbal iced tea and let the good times fire away.

The Man and the Monster (1959) a.k.a El hombre y el monstruo

  The former greatest pianist in the world is now training a very talented young girl who is about to give her first big performance. When a reporter wants to pry in their story, terrible things start to happen. The piano teacher may be hiding some very dark secrets...
  Damn, this is as good as it gets. I mean what storyline can beat a classic Mexican horror film like this?! Prolific director Rafael Baledón puts the cheese in super-cheesy and brings forth a hmm-masterpiece. I really loved the cheap but meaningful sequences and the transformation scenes (a treat for the eyes). If I got scared ? No, not in any case but on the other hand this is not the point of the film. Would I solemnly recommend it? Yeah, if you got the balls for it! Not everyone is ready for such amount of Z-movie cult essence...
  All the actors do the best they can but at times it's not enough. Not because of them but because of the cheap character of the overall result. And not anyone can deal with such a script. I mean, the film bounces from thrilling horror spooks to sentimental monologues in a split of a second (?!) leaving the actors to travel back and forth in feelings. Kudos to Enrique Rambal, Abel Salazar, Martha Roth and Ofelia Guilmáin.
Must watch this :  when you are almost in a mood for comedy but not so gleeful. This film falls right in that blank. Make chilli con carne, get a Desperados and chill!

Take a sneak peak of dat ass

Plan 9 From Outer Space (1959)

   Humans have mastered a massive destruction weapon that threats the entire universe. In order to stop them, intelligent alien humanoids resurrect the dead from their graves as zombies, ghouls and vampires and placing them under their command they make sure the weapon is stopped...
  Carrying the heavy title of the worst film ever made, Plan 9 is a kick in the nuts of any puritan cinema enthusiast out there. Mixing different elements from different genres of cinema but not in the most tasteful way, this flick will certainly leave you with a wondering open mouth for its whole part. Hats off to director Ed Wood, who was not a talented man at all but, since he managed to get this thing produced, he sure was a very determined one.
  Bela Lugosi died way before this film was completed but obviously he managed to crack his way in. Also starring, Maila Nurmi (a.k.a Vampira), heavyweight Tor Johnson, Dudley Manlove as an alien, The Amazing Criswell as himself and many others for whom it was the only film they played in. This movie must have been like the horror equivalent of today's Expendables with each actor (besides Lugosi) being more self-sarcastic than the other!
Must watch this :  definitely watch this no matter what. You can actually smell the filth and rotting essence of the film. Gather up 1-2 open-minded friends and watch this on a random weekday. Look out for the abstract message of the film. I found out for me it's that anything is possible ; if aliens can resurrect people as vampires than I sure can do anything I want!
