    Butcher, Baker, Nightmare Maker
    Tyrell goes from gorgeous to viciously reptilian in the blink of an eye in her tour-de-force performance, and the film’s homosexual subplot, though not particularly PC, is an intriguing early instance of gay life depicted in a mainstream film genre.

    The Watcher in the Woods
    The Watcher In The Woods is an eerie, gothic horror movie and while it's suitable for older children, it feels utterly unlike anything else Disney has ever made.

    This Is Elvis
    Featuring interviews from his ex-wife Priscilla Presley and those who knew him best, and including four different actors portraying him at four distinct time periods of his life, it's a comprehensive, defining look at his rise as well as what continues to make him an enduring pop-cultural icon decades after the height of his career.

    When Time Ran Out...
    This film has everything that makes a disaster film as an actual film disaster. With unconvincing effects, bland performances and a convoluted story, When Time Ran Out… is a dud, critically and financially.

    Xala
    Xala fictionalizes the key years of post-independence in Africa. It is a story of choice: of the different paths Africa could take on its road to the future.

    Early Summer
    Ozu plays with the positives and negatives of being married and being single in postwar Japan, at a time when women began to have more agency in their lives.

    Duel
    As a marriage of theme (the pace of modern life makes enemies of potential friends and renders everyone faceless) and technique, Duel is a compelling thriller that crystallizes Spielberg’s early promise and, as a result, is often seen as one of the best TV movies the medium has ever offered.

    The Horror of Frankenstein
    Ralph Bates gives a phenomenal interpretation of Victor Frankenstein himself, but it's David Prowse's musclebound monster that steals the show. It jumps through a lot of the same hoops as the Universal version, but it does stand out compared to other interpretations.

    Death of a Gunfighter
    Surprisingly solid Western that bears the distinction being the first film ever credited to "Allen Smithee," a long-time pseudonym used by directors who wish to distance themselves from a project.
    • 66 Metascore
    • 50 Critic Score
    Dracula Has Risen from the Grave
    While the film has some full-blooded setpieces and creative visuals - plus one of the franchise's coolest posters - it's a thoroughly by-the-numbers effort. Lee is visibly disengaged with the sequel, the middle section drags on and most of the cast of characters aren't terribly interesting.

    Girl Happy
    The story is solid and its characters are fleshed out enough that Girl Happy can be considered a plentiful experience, if not the final remnant of Presley's ambitious vitality in his late 1960s films.
    • 49 Metascore
    • 50 Critic Score
    None But the Brave
    Sadly, None But The Brave suffers from numerous cliches with the characters, including Clint Walker (The Dirty Dozen) as Captain Bourke, mostly being archetypes instead of fleshed-out human beings. The message is also painfully on the nose, but at least it's earnest.

    The End of Summer
    Ozu's penultimate movie, The End Of Summer, was part of his color films made during the late 50s and early 60s...The End Of Summer contrasts the negative sides of both traditional and modern Japanese life during that period.

    The Thin Man Goes Home
    Though this film is filled with mystery and murder, what makes it stand out is that it is the first Thin Man film to explore Nick's background. While the previous films typically connected to Nora and her parentage, this is the first that sees where Nick Charles came from.
    • 46 Metascore
    • 60 Critic Score
    The Invisible Man's Revenge
    Since there are four films that precede this one, there are definitely less ideas to play around with, but the film still comes up with an interesting morality tale.
    • 47 Metascore
    • 70 Critic Score
    Son of Dracula
    While it never reached the level of success of Dracula, Son of Dracula was still a great late addition to the Universal Horror catalog.
    • 74 Metascore
    • 80 Critic Score
    Suspicion
    Suspicion is a compelling mystery that slowly reveals itself layer by layer.
    • 56 Metascore
    • 70 Critic Score
    The Invisible Woman
    This may not be scary, but the effects are great, and the comedy really lands, too.
    • 51 Metascore
    • 70 Critic Score
    It All Came True
    It All Came True isn't a typical gangster movie. It's a lighthearted musical comedy that happens to feature a couple of sinister details, like the fact that Humphrey Bogart's character, Chips Maguire, is trying to keep a low profile after committing a murder.
    • 72 Metascore
    • 80 Critic Score
    A Christmas Carol
    Though faithful to the book in many ways, this adaptation, though serious in tone, removed many of the more upsetting elements of the story, including darker aspects of Scrooge's visions of his death and his past tragic romance.
    • 70 Metascore
    • 60 Critic Score
    Murder!
    Although Murder lacks some of Hitchcock's signature guile, it's still a fun mystery with one or two flashes of visual brilliance.
  22. You & I
    There are flashes of cleverness here, but they are concealed by the arms-length approach.
