ROBOT MONSTER: 70TH ANNIVERSARY RESTORED EDITION 3-D BLU-RAY
Reviews:
5.0 out of 5 stars Old school 3D is so much better than CG 3D!!!
The Robot Monster restoration is well worth the price. It has some of the best anaglyph 3D I have ever seen and the 3D special features are awesome. I had an old VHS copy years ago and it did not rate very highly, but the quality of this restoration really pops. The “You Asked For It” Bela Lugosi extra is a great tribute to Bela!!! As to Robot Monster being one of the worlds worst movies, it’s a much better movie than a great deal of the crap I have paid money to see in theaters recently….
5.0 out of 5 stars Five Stars for great 3D, great historical extras, and a truly bad monster movie plot
Filmed in true 3D, black and white, the images are excellent, after their restoration by 3-D Film Archive. Like a lot of 1950's sci-fi, the plot is really goofy - some would rate it a close second to the worst movie ever, Plan 9 From Outer Space. One thing I noticed is the background hills - in a converted 3D film, as many of today's are, the background is flat, showing little depth. Because this was filmed in 3D, you can see the depth of the hills, as you would when personally viewing them. A small detail that demonstrates the benefits of filming in 3D. Definitely don't buy this for the plot; you'll be disappointed. But as a historical reference (over two hours of bonus features) and as a demonstration of filmed, not converted, 3D, it's another home run for 3-D Film Archive.
5.0 out of 5 stars Don’t miss this gem
Most movies bore me and I can hardly watch them, but this one captivated me. Yes, very low budget but clever, judge for yourself. I believe it redeems itself due to the acting.Certainly, the 3D was well done. It is a shame that such a great medium as 3D was somehow crushed in the market. The 3D effect is ten times better on my TV than it ever is in the theater, except on Disneys great screen at the El Capitan.
4.0 out of 5 stars Fine print of cheese classic
If you're a bad movie fanatic you've probably seen this movie. If you haven't seen it yet, now's the time! In my book this is one of the few serious contenders, along with Plan 9 from Outer Space, for the title of "Most Enjoyable Bad Movie" (as opposed to "Worst Movie of All Time," in which category neither movie even qualifies). It has that same dizzying, surreal effect as an Ed Wood flick, where you can't believe that sane adult humans were in charge. The plot and dialogue are totally inane, stock footage of dinosaurs (from One Million B.C. and Lost Continent) pops up for no apparent reason, the set (Bronson Canyon) and props (bubble machine, ham radio) are as poverty-stricken as they get, it's never boring like many of these cheapies, and Claudia Barrett gets tied up not once, but twice! The only thing holding it back a bit is that Phil Tucker was saddled with semi-competent actors (unlike Wood's stock company of rank amateurs); check out Miss Barrett's histrionic displays in particular. (I wonder if Nixon got his "peace with honor" line from her.)As to the DVD, the box boasts a "pristine" transfer from the original source materials. While "pristine" is a wee bit strong (there is still the usual light speckling throughout) this is definitely the best I've ever seen this movie look. Compared to my Admit One VHS pre-record, the tonal scale, sharpness, and detail are vastly improved; there is simply no comparison at all (although I haven't seen Rhino's VHS transfer). The disc contains the usual chapter stops (displayed on the plain-jane main menu), trailer, and five 'advertisement' trailers for other Image releases. Overall a very nice package. The only thing keeping this from a five-star review is the exclusion of the 3-D version of the film. It can be done; Rhino has issued several 50s B-movies in 3-D on VHS (including Robot Monster), and the increased resolution of DVD would no doubt help the 3-D effects on the small screen. Why this wasn't done we can only speculate (MCA missed the same boat with their Creature from the Black Lagoon DVD). Otherwise, this is probably as close to a definitive release as this film is likely to get.
3.0 out of 5 stars An ape wearing a divine bell helmet? Amazing!
Most likely because I was never in roots with the 1950s, but I am having doubts that "Robot Monster" ever took advantage of the 3D technology. Not a single image in the movie really pop out of the screen and making silly hand gestures in front of me; I'm watching it in 2D, but there should be some visual indication that it was a 3D effect. Maybe this is one of those subtle 3D movies that people call it the true form of 3D, like that James Cameron $2 billion blockbuster. Who knows?The kid sure woke up on the wrong side of the apocalypse. He found out that the entire human race was destroyed by an alien named Ro-Man, and the only survivors were his family and the hero, whom just happened to be injected by an anti-viral mutigen...which the film never showed. Ro-man and the family communicated via TV, and Ro-man wanted the kid's older sister for 'further analysis'. It's a battle of survival, as the Ro-man tried to kill the family, the family tried to overcome their enemy. The plot is just jibber-jabber, not well-told in a movie that isn't even well-made, well-edited, and well-acted. But at least the story itself is original, and the alien design does look cool as well as being hokey. The special effects are a total joke, from the way Ro-man used the rays by flashing negative images and that rocket scene where I can clearly see a guy in a black bodysuit holding the toy rocket. And what was the point for a 60-minute movie to have a 5-second intermission?"Robot Monster" comes off like one of those movies the Angry Beavers watch out of parody. But it certainly is imaginative, even if it is does look cheap and laughable. Come on, it's a space ape who communicates to a chalkboard covered in tape and has a radio transmission that blows bubbles. Not even Don Hertzfeldt would make something like this up...except for the bubbles. It's a b-movie through and through, and it has some creative inputs to make it worth seeing. Besides, it pushed boundaries for its time by having a child killed on-screen; it WOULD hold some merit, had the movie not used the cop-out ending.
double dvd sf
j ai adorer ces dvdces dvd sont vraiment super le sf ancien j adoreje recommande ces dvd a toute personne aimant la sf des annees 50 et 60
Still a terrible movie - but 3D makes it awesome
Thank you so much to Bob Furmanek and all the people responsible for this 70th anniversary restoration. Robot Monster was always something of a joke, and the washed out blurry Australian DVD release that I had (part of a set with some other movies such as Invasion of the Saucer Men) was pretty much unwatchable. With this restoration I can still see that this was NEVER a great movie ... but the print is now very clean, and watching the 3D version is actually very immersive even with the bad acting and silly costumes.Thank you for including the red/blue anaglyphic 3D - which works well and lets me experience the 3D version despite not getting the proper 3D setup back when they still made them. It's amazing how things like film grain disappear entirely once you put on those glasses ... everything is super-clear and detailed, including the fur on the gorilla costume. Plus, I now understand why they had the bubble machine. Amazing!I never thought that I would fall in love with the Robot Monster movie but it's now become one of my all time favourites. It's super super cool. Thank you also for making this a region-free (or all-region) release as it plays just fine in my very old Australian region-locked player.
Pour la curiosité
Avec Tobor et Ro-man, voici deux séances offertes pour le prix d'une. Si le premier film possède de réelles qualités malgré son statut de série B, le second demeure d'une nullité insoupçonnée, c'est un vrai « navet » malgré la musique d'Elmer Bernstein ! Réalisés tous deux dans les années 50 avec un budget pour cinéastes amateurs alors que l'engouement du public pour les romans d'anticipation explosait, « Tobor le maître du monde » présente un intérêt cinématographique certain : le robot en fer blanc imaginé par Robert Kinoshita, spécialiste du genre à Hollywood servira de référence un an plus tard pour la conception de Robby, le robot prestigieux du chef d'oeuvre « Planète interdite ». Pour donner le change à Tobor (robot en verlan), l'enfant candide mais pas forcément innocent se nomme Billy Chapin, un « pro » de l'écran malgré son jeune âge. Pas si innocent que cela car sa curiosité va l'amener à faire connaissance avec Tobor, un prototype prévu pour piloter les fusées sans la présence d'un homme, pour le meilleur et pour le pire... Billy Chapin saura se faire remarquer en 1955 dans un autre chef d'oeuvre « La nuit du chasseur », un film malheureusement peu ou pas apprécié à sa sortie, concurrence oblige : en 1955 de grands films monopolisaient déjà les toiles avec Oklahoma !, la suite des Don Camillo, La rivière de nos amours, À l'est d'Eden, Les diaboliques... Mais « La nuit du chasseur » réussira sa résurrection grâce aux médias d'aujourd'hui qui véhiculent une image très positive du film, une reconnaissance tardive de la critique mais amplement justifiée. « Tobor le maître du monde » est lui aussi un film intéressant malheureusement présenté en V.O. La musique est simple, elle repose sur une orchestration symphonique d'illustration des images, un travail honnête tout simplement.Avec Ro-man XJ2, pas de surprise : personne n'a peur. Un déguisé dans la peau d'un gorille ayant servi dans « Tarzan » avec Johhny Weissmüller - le gamin du film le défini comme un « Vieux pneu dégonflé » -, un casque de scaphandrier à peine bricolé mais la vitre en moins, de bons gros sentiments et des clichés très américains, des acteurs qui semblent sortis du cinéma muet dont une femme à la poitrine généreuse qui se fera draguer jusqu'au point de se marier la minute suivante (!), des trucages qu'un enfant réussirait à mieux faire (on aperçoit une personne cachée dans le noir qui tient à bout de bras la maquette d'une fusée en feu !), des transistors d'un autre âge électronique, voici une histoire pour série Z. Un an avant l'unique et fabuleux film de Charles Laughton « La nuit du chasseur » et deux ans avant l'incontournable « Planète interdite » quitte à me répéter, le réalisateur totalement fauché Phil Tucker s'offrira tout de même les services d'Elmer Bernstein alors au début de sa carrière. Le musicien âgé de trente ans débutait son extraordinaire parcours de compositeur de musiques de films après s'être fait remarqué à la radio pour ses arrangements de grande qualité. Dans « Robot monster », le violoncelle mélodique et mélodieux domine l'orchestre symphonique ce qui témoigne déjà d'une patte artistique personnelle indéniable ; les timbales martèlent la démarche de Ro-man et quelques sons électroniques ponctuent l'ensemble. Au total l'auditeur ne trouvera pas de quoi s'enthousiasmer devant ces poncifs musicaux mais passons, la partition ne sera jamais réécrite, le film non plus. Il est nul et sa musique demeure, elle, correcte. Au final voici un bon dvd pour les curieux de cinéma.
tanto B movie da essere un C Movie!
questo è un vero B Movie! Un costume di gorilla cui è applicato un casco con antenne ed eccovi servito l'alieno!Naive, sceneggiatura molto zoppicante, mette dentro di tutto, dai raggi della morte dell'alino, ad un super siero imuninizzante a dinosauri giganti. Imperdibile come B movie ,da avere perché, perchè, ehm, vediamo, perchè.... perchè sì! Guardatelo senza troppe (megli o nessuna) pretesa e poi mettetelo via nella vostra collezione. Potrete dire, IO l'ho visto!

Tobor est le premier film de robot que j'ai visionné à l'âge de 7 ans et même si ce n'est qu'une version sous-titrée c'est avec plaisir que j'ai pu constater que le film n'a pas trop vieilli
