Director-star José Ferrer’s 1955 British CinemaScope and Technicolor war film The Cockleshell Heroes is a sturdy account of a brave and dashing World War Two wartime exploit – the planting of mines on German enemy craft […]
Barquero *** (1970, Lee Van Cleef, Warren Oates, Forrest Tucker, Mariette Hartley, Kerwin Mathews) – Classic Movie Review 7478
Director Gordon Douglas’s 1970 Barquero is a stylish and excitingly brutish attempt by the Americans to ape the Spaghetti Western style, with bald, grizzled star Lee Van Cleef as Travis, a spunky barge operator ferryman […]

Teenage Caveman * (1958, Robert Vaughn, Darah Marshall, Leslie Bradley, Frank DeKova) – Classic Movie Review 4954
A well-groomed young Robert Vaughn looks out of place as a Teenage Caveman in producer-director Roger Corman’s cheap-looking (on a $70,000 budget), quickly made (in two days apparently!) 1958 black-and-white science fiction/ horror/ adventure movie set in a […]
