Movies

Beast of Yucca Flats (1961) I seem to watch this once a year, and I just don't get tired of it. I think if it were in French, or if people had the idea that it was done for some high artistic sociocinematic-critical purpose, it might be considered a genuine art film. The fact is, though, it is an atrociously misconceived monster movie which fails hugely in a surprising number of ways. It is so uniformly catastrophic, from the first moment to the last, that it seems like an artifact from another dimension in which such a thing might be considered normal, which slipped somehow into our own world. I would have to put this in my list of all-time favorite movies. N/10
