Je moet wel van Al Adamson houden. Alleen zou hij (1) de beelden van een 20 jaar oude film over gorilla's met duikhelmen ('Robot Monster'), (2) combineren met fragmenten uit een 30 jaar oude film over olifanten met haarmatten die aan hun flanken geplakt zitten ('One Million B.C.'), (3) delen van een god-weet-hoe-oude Filippijnse film over dwergkannibalen, half mens-half kreeftmonsters en Chinese holbewoners met een bierbuik en slangen die uit hun schouders groeien (alle voornoemde beelden zijn in zwart-wit), (4) 11.43 uur aan nieuwe'verbindings'-beelden besteden. 1. _Citizen Kane_, Michael Curtiz _Casablanca_, Francis Coppola _The Godfather_, Al Adamson _Vampire Men of the Lost Planet_, _Citizen Kane_, _Citizen Kane_, _Citizen Man_, _Citizen Men of the Lost Planet_, _Citizen Kane_, _Citizen Man_, _Citizen Man_, _Citizen Man_, _Citizen Man_, _Citizen Man_, _Citizen Man_, _Citizen Man_, _Citizen Man_, _Citizen Man_, _Citizen Man_, _Citizen Man_, _Citizen Man_, _Citizen Man_, _Citizen Man_, _Citizen Man_, _Citizen Man_, _Citizen Man_, _Citizen Man_, _Citizen Man_, _Citizen Man_, _Citizen Man_, _Citizen Man_, _Citizen Je verdient het.
Ya gotta love Al Adamson. Only he would (1) take footage from a 20-year-old movie about gorillas in diving helmets ("Robot Monster"), (2) combine it with clips from a 30-year-old movie about elephants with hair mats glued to their sides ("One Million B.C."), (3) throw in parts from a God-knows-how-old Filipino movie about midget cannibals, half man/half lobster monsters and beer-bellied Chinese cavemen with snakes growing out of their shoulders (all of the aforementioned footage being in black and white), (4) spend $11.43 shooting new "connecting" footage (in color, no less) with an apparently--to be charitable--confused John Carradine and a bunch of actors who have trouble remembering their lines (among them a vapid blonde who is so incompetent that all her dialogue is dubbed in by someone else and who doesn't even have the decency to make up for it by getting naked), (5) put it out under at least 10 different titles and (6) try to pass each one off as a new movie. Go, Al!<br /><br />This is Al's masterwork, the film by which he will always be remembered. Orson Welles had "Citizen Kane," Michael Curtiz had "Casablanca," Francis Coppola had "The Godfather," Al Adamson has "Vampire Men of the Lost Planet." You're in heady company, Al. You deserve it.
