Terror from Beneath the Earth, a review by GSyren


TitleTerror from Beneath the Earth (884501-139618)
DirectorChristopher R. Mihm
ActorsMike Cook, Elizabeth Kaiser, Michael Kaiser, Shannen McDonough, Elliott Mihm
Produced2009 in United States
Runtime68 minutes
AudioEnglish Dolby Digital 2-Channel Stereo, Commentary Dolby Digital 2-Channel Stereo
SubtitlesEnglish
Overview
My thoughtsSince 2006 Christopher R. Mihm has written/produced/directed one  film a year. It started with The Monster of Phantom Lake, and his latest cinematic effort is The Giant Spider. Terror from Beneath the Earth was made in 2009.

I guess most of his films could best be described as advanced home movies. They star Mihm's family and friends. None of them should give up their day jobs for acting. Still, these films have a certain charm. They are made with a love for 50's B-movies.

To date I have seen three of his films, the first, the latest and this one. The latest, The Giant Spider, actually has some qualities that makes it look almost professional. The same cannot be said for the two others I have seen. So you really can't judge them on the same scale as professional films.

Terror from Beneath the Earth
My rating2.5 out of 5

My Thoughts:
Decided to watch this one today.... have plans of watching the last one when I take Britt to College... me, her and her roommate are supposed to watch it together one evening while there. I found this to be a good continuation of the series. While I may not have liked all they did in the film... it was enjoyable. Definitely good storytelling. I could have gone without the death in the end... I always liked that character. Anyway... a must see if you are a fan of the series.

My Rating:
Out of a Possible 5

Tom's TV Pilots marathon, a review by Tom


     The Bill Cosby Show: Season One (1969/United States)
IMDb | Wikipedia

(United States)
Length:660 min.
Video:Full Frame 1.33:1
Audio:English: Dolby Digital 2.0 Stereo
Subtitles:


Plot:
Chet Kincaid is a gym teacher at Richard Allen Holmes High School in Los Angeles, an all-around good guy and an inspiration to his friends, family and students.

Bill Cosby's first situational comedy places an emphasis on intelligent character studies and real-life situations that are naturally infused with the comedian's trademark sense of humor. The first season's adventures include Chet squiring a date in a borrowed garbage truck and losing a one-on-one basketball game to a student he considered too short to make the team.

The Bill Cosby Show: Season One features a newly recorded interview with Bill Cosby and all 26 fully restored episodes from the 1969-70 season, including music by Quincy Jones and guest appearances by Henry Fonda, Cicely Tyson, Elsa Lanchester, Wally Cox and many others.

The Bill Cosby Show
1.01 The Fatal Phone Call
Writer: Ed. Weinberger (Created By), Michael Zagor (Created By), William H. Cosby, Jr. (Created By), Dave Evans (Writer)
Director: Harvey Hart
Cast: Bill Cosby (Chet Kincaid), Victor Tayback (Calvin), John Hawker (Mack), Victor Millan (1st Detective), Craig Chudy (1st Policeman), Jay Powell (2nd Policeman)

Not bad going by this episode, but a little too slow for my taste. Not really much happens. I have the first season now five years in my collection and only have managed to watch the first two episodes so far.
