While the first act takes place in an undisclosed Himalayan country (presumably bordering India) the actors portraying the locals speak Japanese. The movie starts with a scientific expedition intent on collecting botanical samples, led by Dr. Frank Parrish (Paul Langton) and encounters difficulties when the wife of the expedition's chief guide is kidnapped. The guide, a sherpa named Subra (played by Teru Shimada), seizes the expedition's guns and takes control of the team when he is unable to convince Parrish to pursue the Yeti and save his wife. Parrish, a man of science, is skeptical of the Yeti's existence, put is forced to participate in Subra's march. Along with his fellow westerner (a photographer named Peter Wells, played by Leslie Denison), Parrish awaits his opportunity to overthrow the renegade sherpa. However, as the team draws closer to the Yeti, evidence emerges that begins to change Parrish's opinion regarding the creature's existence (such as the tell-tale "giant footprints"). Finally, the team makes contact with the snow creature, who hurls stones at them from atop his mountain refuge.
The expedition tracks the creature to his cave, where they encounter the creature, along with two other Yeti's - a female and young one. The team also discover Subra's wife, who is guarded jealously by the snow creature. Parrish forcibly prevents the enraged Subra from shooting the Yeti, reasoning that the creature is more valuable for science alive. This delays the capture long enough to enable the creature to create a cave-in (presumably to keep his family safe from the humans). However, the cave-in works against the Yeti, killing the female and young Yetis and knocking the snow creature himself unconscious. The cave-in also enables Parrish and Wells to take control of the sherpa's guns. Having regained control over the expedition, and successfully capturing a live Yeti, Parrish declares that he is intent upon bringing the creature to the U.S. where it will be studied.
The Yeti is eventually sedated and placed in a telephone booth-sized freezer. Trapped inside this icebox, the Yeti is transported to Bombay to be flown to California. In an odd geographic twist, the return flight heads west from India to California (via TWA) -- beginning the second act. Upon reaching Los Angeles, Parrish is greeted by reporters who have been made aware of the creature's existence. A U.S. Customs official informs Parrish that the admission of this creature to the U.S. has been made difficult by a newspaper article published by Peter Wells that refers to the creature using the term "man". The issue is raised whether the snow-creature is actually human and the officials decide to keep the creature in quarantine until an anthropologist can determine the question of the creature's humanity. It is during this delay at the airport's customs station that the snow creature manages to escape the ice box (which was apparently meant to confine him temporarily only). The snow creature roams the city, terrorizing a woman and finding refuge in the cool temperature of the city's sewers as well as meat-lockers (where it can also feed).
The police, aided by Parrish, manage to track the Yeti through the sewer system and, where the creature is caught in a roap mesh and grabbed by 5 men. As the creature resists it starts to choke one of the men through the mesh. One of the men shoots the creature once who then stops choking the man. There's a pause after the choked man had been released and then the man with the gun decides to shoot the rare creature with two more slugs just for good measure. Thus, one of the greatest finds of all time is dead.

As a retired old timer living alone. These older films are a treasure for me!👍👍👍
@@filevans Such as?
🤷
@@filevans An affinity to that element ... how d'you guess?
Yes, movies run out.
Hope you’re doing well my friend!
I turned 8 in 1954😊
Who else finds these old films fascinating?? I find them to be a breath of fresh air. Corny, yes, but better than what Hollywood puts out now. I remember watching the 3 O'Clock show after school. Always a scary show, sure to give way to nightmares. I miss those days......
Yes they are great. Some bad acting but good stories 👌
You have a lovely day. 👍
Considering the cheap funding, special effects and character development is lacking. But the plot lines and dialogue is fun.
In NYC in the mid 1960's at 3:00 after school we had Officer Joe Bolton and the 3 Stooges.
I first saw this movie on tv when I was a little boy. Scared the s*** out of me. I still love it.
Not corny. B & W imagery is in a class of its own.
grew up with old black and white movies and they are still the best
I love these old classics.
They are more realistic than the
stuff on television and in the
movies these days!
They're just more fun. I find myself watching more black and white movies now because they just more enjoyable...
So true...
Idk about that, when have a seen a snow creature? Lol that's a stretch, at least stuff today looks more realistic n not campy as hell lol..I like old horror movies but this one is pretty bad lol watch abominable snowman with Peter Cushing now that is a great movie
I agree... that face on the Cushing snowman... it was scary yet it also had a look of wisdom and humanity. Not easy to achieve.@@pickford3152
This movie brings back such fond memories of childhood! Remember when there was only 3 channels on tv? On Saturday afternoon was the Creature Feature where we all watched Creature from the black lagoon, Snow Beast, Frankenstein and so many more!!! I would rather watch these than half the crap they try to pass off as entertainment these days!! My Aunt helped build the movie sets for a lot of these movies too! It really was movie magic back then!!
@Jerry Polverino May Aunt lived in LA, Ca most of her adult life, all 90 years of it! She had a studio just around the Paramont building, but don't test me on that because it has been one hell of a long time ago!! When I got older I helped her in a few commercial sets. She did more than a few of those too. The last one I worked on with her was for a cigarette commercial so that should tell you something about how long it's been!!!!
@Jerry Polverino LOL!n
Could you imagine how damaged our little brains would have been if they could use the special effects they have today in one of the movies we watched back in the early 60's or so?? Would have scared me right out of my little mind!! I remember all the channels too! CBS,NBC and ABC and once in a while there was a PBS station we could get if you played with the antenna just right!
I remember when corpus Christi Texas only had two channels we didn't get ABC until I was in sixth grade
I used to go in the kitchen for a snack when the Frankenstein monster was just about to wake up! Went back only when I heard "It's aliiiiiive!"
far better than a lot of todays movies.
never to be made agin
Better writing
I agree. I miss those days.....
The reason was because viewers had to also use their imagination. Today's movies have no need for an imaginative mind. They feed you everything from blood and gore, to full frontal nudity and sex.
Ok boomer
Takes me back to my childhood...watching the scary flicks on Saturday matinee 😊😊😊
YES EXACTLY! WHEN MOVIES REALLY SCARED YOU AND YOU THOUGHT MONSTERS WERE REAL. BUT TODAY WE KNOW MONSTERS ARE REAL AND THEY GO INTO SCHOOLS KILLING CHILDREN WITH HIGH POWERED ASSAULT RIFLES.
Back then it was called Creature Feature
When I was a little kid this movie scared me like no other.
This was a treat because somehow I’ve never heard or seen it. I love old Sci-Fi and horror movies.
Me too. 50’s - 80’s horror and sci fi are the best. Better than anything I’ve seen out of Hollywood lately.
I’m 28 yes old and I enjoy these kinds of films I wish society still made em.
I am 67 , and so do I.
My sleeping pill is watching old movies and Documentaries,I dont know why they help but they do.
Relaxing
Sleep how? Horror movies give me nightmares!
Yep
You are so right.
I have alot of eye problems. Watching black and white is much easier. unfortunately, they do not make black and white tvs anymore. ;-)
Finally a Bigfoot documentary on TH-cam thats believable.
love the classics
LOL!!!!!
The oldies are the best, the "horror" back then is so tame compared to what we're dealing with in 2021
it's not HOrros in 201, it's a big mess. no story, no decent, skilled actors...just a BIG mess.
If a true "horror" film is what you need then see the 1972 film Deliverance.
You'll have nightmares for a month.
Actor who played the creature was named Lock Martin.
He stood 7 ' 4" tall and worked as a doorman at Grauman's chinese theater in California when
he was discovered and became an actor.
He also played the robot, Gort, in The Day the Earth Stood Still.
The good version, not the one with Keanu Reeves. Hehe
Bill23799 , the best one.
Interesting. Yes, the Keanu Reeves version actually made little sense.
Klaatu Barada Nikto...
Hey Bill23799 it's dudes like thee who keep the work of these unknown actors "alive" and unforgotten! Thank you for that...
They should have considered him to play The Creature from the Black Lagoon. I like Ben Chapman; don't get me wrong, but the Creature legend is supposed to be 10' tall. 7'4 would cut it.
Love these old B movies! Brings back memories of watching them on a Saturday afternoon.
+debra bolton You sound like a fun girl! Watching movies on a Saturday afternoon.
+debra bolton You're my kind of girl. I too grew up watching 50s B-movies on Saturday or even when I would come home on Thursdays and Fridays. A childhood favorite of mine is still Roger Corman's It Conquered The World.
"Giant Claw"; "Tarantula"; "Creature From The Black Lagoon". Lots of great movies.
@@aspenrebel and The Thing. Even 82 is about 300% better.;-)
Or Saturday evening. I used to watch the thing , the ten foot woman, night of the lupus. I loved these old movies!!!
Fast forward to 2020: historically huge wildfires; devastating locust swarms; deadly world-wide pandemic; spreading civil unrest; and.... ‘murder hornets’. 😱
These days, I’m watching campy horror movies as an escapist break from a much scarier reality! 😂
SkiingIsMyHappyPlace Bliss and here it is, two months later, and I long for the simpler times of 2 months ago.
mary smith - 😳 Me, too! In addition to everything else, I haven’t been able go outdoors at all for the last 2 weeks. We have several large wildfires burning in Colorado and we’re shrouded in heavy smoke, regardless of wind direction (much worse for those in California, of course). We’re having symptoms even indoors. Some of the fires are expected to burn until the snow puts them out in November. It’s so extremely hot and dry that more fires are an unnerving possibility. What next? Godzilla? Giant spiders? An alien spacecraft landing? Hang in there! ❤️
I watch um cause I luv.um
I deal with the rest
Wild fires escalates lumber cost part of the controlled economy by scariest people they control everything . . now that is evil!
Bruuuh it s even worse now 9 months later
I really like this one because it has a old documentary feel to it..like what they use to show you in elementary school before the world went insane...
YES🤗
Man, you said it!
its funny to see a Yeti wearing a parka with a hoodie! oh well, special effects were low budget ....but, still its fun to watch.
and karate chops as well! what a yeti, sewing and martial arts heh heh
I love documentaries!
I love these 50's horror films. It brings back memories.
...Must be bad ones.
Yes it does Ron...the good times.
That's why I like watching. Takes me back to a young girl. Remembering a more simple life. Less complicated.
Wow I loved this movie
The 1950s horror sci-fi is the best thing I enjoyed when I was growing up and I still enjoy them they are so relaxing to watch some of them are very funny but I enjoy them all
Carolyn Sanchez
Same, here. ;-) Much of them is absolutely corny, funny, cheesy,etc. in so many ways, BUT in 21.century, they are something like treasure island!
Me 2
all these movies remind me of my father and my mother but more so my father may he rest in peace Walker J Dunlap Jr I miss you Dad💋🤗🙇🏽♂️👑😘
No one cares about your dead dad.Was he in the movie.NO..So cut the bullshit.No one cares
Marlyle Charles I care. Old movies bring back good memories for people.
@@oceanbrzzz l guess so Miss Davis
Yes it reminds me of the good life i lived under the shadow of my father and mothers love
Love the respect you have for your father That's awesome!
Amazing what the world looked like thru the eyes of time❤️ beautiful and relaxing movie👏 respect to the one who uploaded it👏
Oh how I love these old B movies ! I was so afraid watching them as a young boy.
@Randian Winn I have some vids up with REAL ghosts. The young film makers of today can learn alot from the movies of yester year.
I think what you can't see, but know something's out there or inside your house or where ever you are can be alot scaryer then alot of the CGI stuff of today.
@@ghostcityshelton9378 exactly leaves more to the imagination
This movie takes me back. I remember growing up in the late 60’s and early 70’s , Where Television was only 9 channels , 2,4,5,7,9,11,13,25 and channel 21 , back then. My father would have family scary night on Saturday, Lol. We had a choice of either channel 11 , Thriller at 8pm or channel 5 Creature Featured at 8pm. My father, mother and my siblings would gather around the set in our pajamas on a cold scary night drinking hot chocolate and watching B Sci-fi’s movies, God I miss those days
Today youve got 90125 channels and all full of crap.
We didn't get a 3rd channels until the early 70s
I'll take a 1950's Horror/Sci-Fi over any of the crap on today's television! Thanks to the "Timeless Classic Movies" channel.
@Dr Moriartyperhaps you missed his point. I took it as he prefers 50s tech and effects for Sci-fi over today's CGI soaked versions . If so, i agree.
Waynesmith. Ilovetvshow
“The Thing” and “Little Shop of Horrors” had very good remakes. Any others ?
Bravo Carl!!
Agree
The Big Labowski agrees.
I've watched this movie several times and actually like it. I love the 50's era travelogue beginning. The whole thing is low budget schlock which is pure nostalgia for me with a few 'so bad it's good' laughs here and there. The sherpas are all Japanese and when they speak, it's in Japanese as well.
I thought I heard the leader of the Sherpa speaking Japanese, but I couldn't believe that they would resort to that. Japanese was not that unrecognizable to people outside of Asia after WW2, it would be ridiculous to think that the Sherpas speak it among themselves.
Probably couldn't find any Sherpas in Hollywood to speak the correct language. 🤔😉
Well, after they tried invading India, a few soldiers stayed behind and started a village. :)
This is definitely not a true fact lol
I picked up on, that sounds like Japanese! My favorite, "Hollywood don't care" film is actually a great one: "Confidential Agent." Charles Boyer and Peter Lorre play Spanish spies. (I kid you not!) But it's actually great! Aside from Lauren Bacall "phoning it in," there are two supporting female roles of real significance.
Nice guys! Not even remotely concerned for the guide’s wife!
My favorite such movie is "The Abominable Snowman" with Forrest Tucker and Peter Cushing. A Hammer Film production.
I love watching these old films. Especially seeing the old technology they had to use then.
Mr. Barlow , Ray Harryhausen sure did a good job !
or what people looked like back then and how environment was
“The creature has escaped!” “WHATS THAT ! YOU MEAN HE GOT OUT OF THE YETI COOLER ?” 😮
It was a good move
well done for 1954 I was born that year that's a long time . Now it's 2020 thank you 👍🇺🇸
Born in 1957 and still loving these old movies too!
I loved the one with Forrest Tucker filmed in the Pyranees : I think the title was "The Abominable Snowman." So got my popcorn out for this one!
I remember that one, locked myself in the john with the lights on, I was scared to death that night!
Thank you for the great movie .
I just love these old black and white classics .
Remember Creature Feature. I stay home all day on Saturday to get scared.
Cybille Alexander I remember arguing with my brother's over the TV lol
so you too!
the best of times
Cybille Alexander. Me to. Yes i remember Creature Feature & Chiller Theater...
@@shirleybell9339 same here
Reminds me of the days of watching Creature Double-Feature on Saturdays on Channel 56 in Boston back in the 60's. The Ghoul was the host.
*I miss those days. Wish I could go back to them and know then, what I do now.*
I once bought this at a pawn shop for 50 cents back in the 90s it was on VHS tape a double feature movie with Godzilla vs. Megallon such fond memeories
This is great. Like so many comments here it brings back memories of a Sunday afternoon or a Saturday night creature feature night. I guess the budget didn't allow for real Nepalese or Tibetan actors, though. The "natives" are speaking Japanese (as mentioned above). I guess at that time the makers of the film figured few people would catch on so they ran with it. None the less its still fun to watch for nostalgic sake alone.
Thanks for the post.
Fun quarantine flick.. Notice at 58:00 the street sweeper is sweeping the trash right into the storm drain, which would flow directly into the Pacific Ocean. Of course, this was also when sewerage went straight into the ocean. The movies may not have gotten better, but luckily sanitation methods have.
I saw this when I was a little kid, and it scared me so bad I couldn't go out in the dark until last week!! I saw "Night of the Grizzly" too, and that one really messed me up!! Great channel you have here, sure brings back memories of the Saturday afternoon monster movies!
Love Night of the Grizzly, a forgotten Western classic one doesn't see referenced much.
What grizzly? All I saw was Clint Walker. 🥰
@@eileenweeks1815 LOL! You too huh!?!
How about "The Fouk Monster" about the Arkansas Bigfoot? My in-laws were from the Fouk area and said they heard the howls frequently enough to be concerned. I was a full-grown man when I saw that one and it STILL gave me nightmares!
@@eileenweeks1815 Still hard to believe he was human, as a physical specimen.
Love those old movies as a kid and now as a adult better than what we have today they had class.
"A dangerous killer beast is at large... remain calm."
Reminds me of my Dad who passed away a couple years ago. MAN THESE MOVIES ARE BETTER THAN TODAY'S CRAP.😄
Does anyone else think this Yeti looks like the creature on the wing of the plane in the Twilight Zone episode about the terrified passenger played by William Shatner?
This creature was played by a tall actor; the gremlin was played by a "little person".
You know what I'm "most" happy about when it comes to this "old gold" ? It's that other people enjoy them like I do . Be nice to sit , chill and watch with someone else though.oh well, till then ? pass the popcorn !
Exactly how I feel I need a guy that gets it 😊 but until then I will watch solo or maybe with Svengoolie
I remember watching these old horror movies with my dad, I love and miss you so much Dad,
Glad to see these old movies.
Love these old movies. Thanks for the upload and sharing it with us. Keep up the great work.
My brother and I saw it as young kids and it scared the heck out of us.
This movie was one of 2 creature feature movies that scared me as a kid back in the early 60s.
@Randian Winn Wasnt that the one about the twins?
Kingdom of the spiders. Creature from the black lagoon night of the lupus, the thing ! I loved these old movies
Director of photography is Floyd Crosby ASC...who was singer David Crosby's father.
What are they burning, no wood up in those mountains, Japanese sherpas Lololol. I love these 1950’s Bmovies.
I'm glad there are others like me who really enjoy the gems shown here.
Thank you for posting them here. Brings back ALOT of fun, & scary times way back in kiddyland.
If you don't like the movies here please feel free to move on, no need for thumbs down or nasty stupid hurtful comments.
While I enjoy watching the oldies, I have to point out that if these various sites were bothered by the "dislikes," then both 'like' and 'dislike' should be removed. Why should only those who "like" things have a say? Gives a false picture to those who put things on TH-cam, and shows a serious lack of maturity of those who make childish comments on the people who simply dislike certain things.
Teru Shimada as the rather nasty Sherpa. Shimada came here in the early 30's and had a very successful career into the 70's. The cave they took refuge in wasn't in the far flung Himalayas, but in Bronson Canyon, just behind the hill where the Hollywood sign is located, The location has been used in literally hundreds of film and TV productions...
Of course all of the Sherpas are speaking Japanese...Most likely all American citizens from LA.
Yes i remember it in the wild wild west and a 60s war movie with robert ryan
I think they were all Jewish extras.
So the filmed in the same location as seen in the original Invasion of the Body Snatchers and of course was the entrance to the Bandage from the 60's TV show.
I thought right off that the film's location is Bronson Canyon and not the Himalayas. I grow up in Hollywood and remember as kids hiking those hills and playing in the caves.
Thanks for the location! I always get a smile out of the California eucalyptus trees in all over the world locations! My sentimental favorite is the gallop of the French royal guard through Golden Gate Park in "Scaramouche."
Love these classic movies better than regular television thank you i really enjoyed this movie great classic B&W movies
thank you u tube for bring these classical movies
you can buy them
@@onlythewise1 They're free
@@FishHeadly1 but you can still buy them own them
onlythewise1 Will you still buy them when they are in the public domain?
Yes.. no CG , man Hollywood is missing out. I LOVE THIS CHANNEL. Thank you very much
You mean I'm not the only one watching these corny movies?
Willam Sharpe nope, US corny movie livers gotta stick together lmao. The Creature thanks you too lol
Movie Livers?
Movie Livers filter out the alcohol from the beer you drink while watching these old gems.
I love em! So nice to watch a movie and hear swearing or unnecessary sex scenes.
birds of a feather.....
Love old movies, but the hateful idiots that bring their personal baggage to the site should go away.
Why ?
@Midnight Runner 68
Why? Because they are "hateful idiots" with "personal baggage" no one is interested in.
@Randian Winn There is a channel called Mr. Max TV, it has videos about Max , a sweet Cockatoo, Dan who owns Max & a sweet cat named Dusty.
It is a fun channel, family fun channel and there are many mean hearted folks come just to put thumbs down, why, I don't know.
I guess you're always going to very negative, mean type folks who like to rain on nice channels. I wish they'd get a life.
Like here, if they don't like Kool old movies here then just move on but alot just have to be mean.
I'll check out "Mr. Max TV." Thanks!
Losers who need attention.
Funny how the local Nepali Sherpa speak colloquial Japanese among themselves.
It’s not really that funny considering that this geographic location has always been considered part of the Japanese empire.
SHARP EARS TOU HAVE, TSNORE!! I NOTICED THE SAME THING, CUZ I HAVE A WORKING KNOWLEDGE of Japanese MYSELF!!!
I 1st saw this movie in 54 when 1st came out Its pretty cool movie.
This movie was painful. I loved it.
This movie would have been perfect if they had the Yeti stealing a plane, flying it across the Atlantic and becoming a celebrity. Then dressing in tux and tie at galas, etc.
I love these old 'B' Chiller Theater classics. The girl always walks into that dark room when she hears creepy sounds and the men always go on quests where the natives say everyone dies lol.
I can't watch real horror movie... too scary for me lol.
That's the most poorest snow creature i've ever seen even for 1954. But thanks for posting it anyway.
And they sure got a lot of mileage out of that footage of him coming out of the shadows, didn't they? Director to the editor "Just use that again, they'll never notice".
Candace Gladden most poorest
Love his Russian hat.
Anyone viewing see keith Richard's name in closing credits? This movie has everything!
Thanks for an entertaining download!
You made me laugh to tears..lol...good one!
Yes next to Fred Flintstone
I'd give an old "B" movie like this one a five star rating compared to any of the crap thats out there today.
I remember seeing this as a 7 or 8 year old at the nearby cinema where my mother worked as an usherette. It scared me half to death.
"...so they killed the damn thing down in the rotten sewer, and everybody lived happily ever after."
"Geez, Grandpa, why did you read me this thing?"
You know, they are always so negative about unknown things in these old movies. I would think in real life they would want to know more of the details of that mysterious thing they might have seen, not just blow it off and say go back to sleep.
If I was going to climb a high mountain and do a ton of hiking I really don’t think I would be carrying a case of whiskey with me.
There is an old story I saw on some documentary of someone climbing Himalayas where one evening the guy was feeling like he was being watched and kept watching back down the hillside. Then after gazing down the mountain watching for any movement a large boulder not very far away ( what he thought was a boulder ) just kind of got up and started running away down the hill.
Love these old black and white horror movies!!
Anyone else notices that the Himalayan Police inspector is speaking Japanese? Gotta love B-movie continuity X'D
Just finished watching and posting the same thing myself.
No. These films are the best. Watched them on shock theater 60 years ago.
I love these old classic b movies sometimes more than recent stuff ... they are original and well done.. have more realistic quality and soothing on a rainy night.📽️📽️🎥🎥
Oh the good old days
I sure miss them like the rest of you
From the highest mountain , to the lowest sewer , this film was made for you and me .
Originally saw this on Chiller Theater (channel 11 Los Angeles) one Saturday afternoon in the late '50s / early '60s
11:32 Ok. Sounds like they have wooden floors in their tent. Brilliant! 😁😂🤣 I just love these old movies.
There was a local guy that would've been great in these movies. He was 7'5", weigh 600 lbs & maybe 50 lbs was fat. Biggest guy I ever saw!
Even with out the 19 page synopsis, it’s not that bad of a movie! 3 out of 5 stars!!
Watched this with my Dad In Pittsburgh Pa on channel 11 Wiic TV on a Saturday night on Chiller Theater with host CHILLY BILLY CARDILL 😀 scary back then still love these movies ❗
Was that "Chilly Willy Cardilly"?
Better then most of the crap they dish up these days.
No it's not.
Can’t we just enjoy something without bragging about how we might find it better than what’s popular.
Congrats, you watched a 60 year old movie it doesn’t make you Jesus Christ. Pretending like this sci-fi b movie churned out on a shoestring budget in a month with antiquated ideas about the “natives” is better than a modern movie because it’s older is just being ignorant.
IT IS GOOD.
You sure about that? I found this movie kind of boring
That's true
He looks like an overgrown Wolfman.
The Himalaya Sherpas are Japanese actors and they are speaking Japanese!
I guess when this movie was made ( 1954 ) Americans wouldn't know the difference. Except maybe for the men who fought in WWII of course. They would remember the Japanese and their language.
I love that the police officer in a remote Himalayan town was speaking Japanese on the phone when making the arrangements to transport the creature.
Friday nights; Saturday afternoon, Saturday night best time for B- class monster movies in the 1960s and 70's!😉 Oh the memories. And as I got older into my teens Friday night and Sunday afternoon the Base movie theater. I lived on a Naval base in the 60's and 70's.
We used to go to the local NAS for the twenty-five cent movies. One Naval Reserve dad would take his whole Suburban full of classmates and sign us in. Most of that class later took NJROTC in high school because of his influence, and most of us are veterans now.
Anytime an expedition movie requires a narrator and the bad guy speaks about himself in the third person, probably not gonna win best picture of the year.
❤Giving this classic Yeti scary 🎥 Movie & Channel & Comment Section a Thumbs Up 👍Like!!
This would make a good episode of Mystery Science Theater.
They need to bring that back. It was hilarious.
Thank you for running these TH-cam.
That's the spirit! Set half the movie in the Himalaya's but never leave the local quary while shooting it.
Q: "Hey, where you going all dressed up in a suit and tie?" A: "In the seweres searching for my Yeti!"
Thing is Sherpa’s are a distinct tribe best known as guides. My understanding is typically they considered work as porters beneath them
now that's what I call a horror film.
Loved it! Better than today's movies, Subscribed!
God, I love being a movie critic!
Saturday Afternoon “ Creature Feature.” Excellent Movie
I love um. Brings back memories of teens at the two tiered Fox Theater in Salinas California. We thought we were so grown up.
We had a FOX THEATER in San Diego. In the 60s used to go see new releases at the FOX. And sat in the balcony seats many times to talk to girls. I distinctly remember seeing PLANET OF THE APES one Saturday afternoon.
Am I the only one who thought that one dude could have nearly been a William Holden stand in.
Lock Martin, the creature was also in the Sci/Fi classic "Invaders from Mars" playing one of the "mutants" carrying "Jimmy" to the "Brain" of the ship.
He was also Klatuu in the original Day the Earth Stood Still. The good version with Michael Rennie.
It's fun to watch the clocks & how they don't match up. Like alittle before-1:00:21 it says like 10 to 6 a.m. then after the two guys leave the dude at the desk looks at his watch & it's going on 4 am.
It's just fun to catch stuff like this don't you think?
Oooooohhhhhhh! Very scary kids. What a scary winter hat the snow dude was wearing!
love these old si-fi theatre movies
