Big Chuck Retro Review

Maybe the greatest cast of comedians ever assembled for a movie up until 1963.  "It's A Mad, Mad....World" was a zany chase flick filled with one-liners, broad performances (could anything have been more broad than Ethel Merman's performance...

Another great Charlton Heston film.  Spooky premise, especially when you consider it was made almost fifty years ago. Of course, the make-up was absolutely groundbreaking.  The ape masks and costumes were extremely convincing.  It was cool they way you could still tell who the actors were under the masks...

Creepy, scary, dark, grim and totally classic. This 1964 fright flick was a slow moving, slow building drama which featured two of Hollywood's former glamor dames Bette Davis and Olivia de Havilland.  Davis plays the demented Charlotte Hollis, a fading Southern belle who is wrongly accused of murdering a suitor (played by a very young Bruce Dern)...

This movie was positively startling when it first came out in 1968.  Not for the acting.  I mean, lets face it, nobody would accuse Steve McQueen of being one of Hollywood's most exciting actors.  No, the star of this move is the car chase...
