CodyZamboni This movie is cheap, tedious, and silly with fake looking monsters that ooze chicken noodle soup when they divide, Movie is devoid of suspense, and there is no sense of being trapped on a remote island run amok with bone disolving creatures, Also unecessary is a female character who is only there for eye candy, The only memorable thing are some eerie spooky monster sounds. Rated 1.5 out of 5 stars 04/14/24 Full Review Dallas H Gilligan and the Skipper have discovered The Blob on their island, so they call Peter Cushing to help them investigate the unusual occurrences. Rated 2.5 out of 5 stars 04/14/24 Full Review Audience Member What do you get when you combine Peter Cushing, a remote island, and an attempt to cure cancer that goes badly wrong? You get "The Island of Terror". Come into this with the correct mindset: this is a film from the 60s where science inadvertently creates horrific silicone-based monsters that suck the calcium – and thus the bones – out of anything they touch with their tentacles. They look like the Noo-Noo from Teletubbies smothered in a blanket of snot. There is a single woman character who is there for the sole purpose of looking pretty and occasionally shrieking. If you keep these things in mind and expect a campy, slightly preposterous time, you should enjoy it as much as I did. Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 01/19/23 Full Review Audience Member Island of Terror should be terrible. With a monster that looks like a cross between an avocado and a slug and moves about as fast as one, this movie had little potential for suspense. Even so it manages to be mildly exciting, saved by an interesting setting, an island off the coast of Ireland, and the performance of Peter Cushing, who has a talent for raising the silliest horror movies to heights they should never have reached. Rated 3 out of 5 stars 02/06/23 Full Review Audience Member Brilliant old horror film you can't beat them Rated 5 out of 5 stars 02/06/23 Full Review Audience Member Excellent movie. Way underrated.
