Inspired somewhat by this thread, and fond reminiscing of such classics as "The Legend of Boggy Creek", "Snowbeast", "Creature From Black Lake", "Alligator" and many others, I'm looking for suggestions on others of the same (low) calibre.

First off, yes, that was a rather long sentence. Secondly, they can be from any decade, and of any (ahem) quality. I've recently seen "Attack of the Beast Creatures", "Rogue" and "Primeval" (the latter two actually having decent budgets and casts).

The creatures in question can be anything, from aardvarks (preferably of the mutant variety) to zombies, and anything in between; bigfoots (bigfeet?), crocs, sharks, apes, werewolves, lawyers, whatever.

Thanks in advance ;)
 
Ever thought of checking out older stuff like Creature from the Black Lagoon or The Quatermass Xperiment?

Yeah, I have a few golden oldies lying around too :D

Frankenfish is disasterously brilliant.

Ha ha, I was looking for the name of this movie - caught the tail (no pun intended) end of it one night on the Sci-Fi channel, but couldn't for the life of me remember the name - so thanks for that. It looks like it will fit the bill :)
 
Some nice recommendations there fellas (especially Pestilence). Have a few titles now to munch through, but by all means, keep the recommendations coming.

In fact, every movie/entertainment forum needs a monster movie thread, so lets keep this going :D
 
I think the last time i saw it was years ago when BBC2 used to show a horror double every saturday evening.

First film was usually an old RKO type horror followed by summat a bit more modern, such as Captain Kronos: Vampire Hunter.

Loved those horror double bills :D

Me too - quality viewing (or not).

Just remembered another I saw recently on Sci-fi - Abominable. Need to watch it again to decide if it was so bad it's good, or just plain bad.
 
I'm stuck between the two on that movie as well. Every time I catch it on Sci-Fi I laugh since reading a review where the yeti was compared to a large, angry, hairier Wilford E. Brimley.

lol, not an unfair comparison to be fair :D

I also love the line "Hey assmonkey, eat this". Adds a touch of class I feel.
 
Just remembered a couple of more from my youth - Razorback, and Watchers.

I wouldn't mind tracking Watchers down again in particular, possessing as it does all the ingredients of 80s cheese.

Laboratory engineered creature? Check.
Michael Ironside? Check.
Roger Corman involvement? Check.
Corey Haim? Check.

:D
