I don't know Z. I remember seeing the original on TV back in the day and it was just boring. I really hated it and have never understood why people are so enamored of it. The movie that scared the bejeesus out of me back then was The Abominable Dr. Phibes, Vincent Price was one weird dude! oh and the flying monkeys from Wizard of Oz.

Hello FMF
Went with Mrs. Z last weekend and caught two movies, the new “ The Day the Earth Stood Still” and “Twilight”. We both will say that the later was the better movie.
As far as the old back and white “The Day the Earth Stood Still”, I have to say that the Terminator robot machine is scary, but to a kid of around 7 or 8, a robot that can shoot a laser beam from it’s eye and dissolve someone into nothingness was quite frightening.

Remember the original Blob? I saw that when I was 4 and I laughed through the whole thing. My mom later had to explain to me that the people aropund us were angry because a little girl was laughing at the scary.

The one part of TDTESS I liked was seeing Normal again, the Reagan Ronald of your fave show.

I finally saw the original just now, and was blown away by the writing, acting (especially Michael Rennie), and the effects!
Now my favorite 50s movie!
