- REVENGE OF THE CREATURE
- Film (1955). Universal. Dir Jack ARNOLD, starring John Agar, Lori Nelson, John Bromfield, Ricou Browning. Screenplay Martin Berkeley, story William Alland. 82 mins. 3D. B/w.The success of CREATURE FROM THE BLACK LAGOON (1954) inspired the inevitable sequel, shot in 3D although seldom projected in that format. This time the Creature (Browning) is captured and taken to an oceanarium in Florida, but it soon breaks out and (some time later, after voyeuristically spying on her) makes off with a blonde woman scientist (Nelson) under its arm. Though the film has erotically charged moments, it is generally limp compared with its predecessor, and is one of Arnold's weaker sf movies. A further sequel, not dir Arnold, was The CREATURE WALKS AMONG US .JB/PN
