Not of This Earth

Description:

Roger Corman remembered "l directed the original "Not of this Earth" in 1957, a film which uniquely combined the sci-fi and vampire genres. When director Jim Wynorski first approached me to remake the film, l was skeptical of messing with a classic. However, Jim convinced me with some interesting casting choices, including 20-year old Traci Lords in the Beverly Garland role." Traci Lords stars in her first major feature! When a mysterious stranger (Arthur Roberts) arrives in town, he immediately hires Nadine Story (Traci Lords) as his nurse. Although the pay is great, her suspicions are aroused when his blood transfusions become more and more frequent. After some creative detective work, our hero finds out her boss is really a space vampire... and the chase is on! The thirsty visitor even threatens to transport Nadine back to his own planet. But Nadine has a few surprises in store for this enterprising alien as she brings her talents to the forefront and fights back during the thrilling climax.

From the makers of Chopping Mall comes Not of This Earth!Plot- A strange man comes to a hospital looking for blood. Upon discovery that his blood is strange, the doctor sends nurse Nadine (Lords) home with him. She must give him a blood transplant once a day. Soon things get out of hand, and it's discovered that the strange man is actually a member of a dying alien race, that must transport blood to the home world for survival...My thoughts- This is one of Jim Wynorski's better movies I must say, and possibly the funnest. Lords does a decent job, Arthur Roberts does a terrific job as Mr. Johnson, Ace Mask does a good job as Dr. Rochelle, and Michael Delano isn't too bad as a vacuum salesman. The rest of the cast isn't worth mentioning. The effects, I think are actually pretty cool. The movie doesn't take itself that seriously, and is super cheesy, but that's what makes it fun. My only issue with the film is that it uses stock footage from other Corman productions, like Humanoids from the Deep; however it's only a little bit so I don't mind it that much. It does have its fair share of both intentional and unintentional hilarity. It's a b-movie, but a great b-movie. There are much worse Corman productions out there, i.e. Attack of the Crab Monsters.Fun Facts- The opening credits feature a montage of clips from various other Roger Corman movies, including Battle Beyond the Stars (1980), Forbidden World (1982), Galaxy of Terror (1981), Humanoids from the Deep (1980), Battle Beyond the Sun (1959) and Piranha (1978). Sample footage from each of these movies appears numerous times throughout the movie as filler footage, as well as two full-length scenes from Hollywood Boulevard (1976) and "Humanoids from the Deep". Becky LeBeau's scream was done by Michelle Bauer. Director Jim Wynorski made a bet with Roger Corman that he could shoot the movie in twelve days. Wynorski finished the film in eleven and a half days. Angel Tompkins did the voice of Rebecca Perle's Davanna Girl character.Final Word- Worth a look for B-movie fans and or Roger Corman/Wynorski fans.Disc Content-2 CommentariesInterview with LordsTrailerNew World Trailers

GOOD MOVIE

5.0 out of 5 stars Nice release!

b. · May 26, 2020

These Roger Corman reissue DVD's come very nicely packaged.Not of This Earth DVD includes an interview with Tracy Lords, and audio commentary with Lords and the director, Jim Wynorski. Anamorphic widescreen, and it looks great!An obscure corner of the world of cinema. Take the plunge! Traci Lords didn't quite have a big break with this one, but in retrospect this is the best way to start out in Hollywood. She's snarky, and makes a good hero, but underutilized due to the mission statement of this ready-made cult classic. Loveable, quirky tribute to the golden age of sci-fi horror, and a product of the 80's, this film is layered in that respect. Good times! Glad I found it.

5.0 out of 5 stars Jim Wynorski's Rosebud

I worship Jim Wynorski. For real. Scorcese wishes he had half of Wynorski's talent, Speilberg can't even carry Jim's jock.If you don't like this, turn in your Man Card and go to the other side. Man oh man oh man oh man!!!!, Traci Lord's last nude scenes and man oh man oh man oh man!!!! did she have a body and boobs for the ages!!!!! Her after shower scene drying off should be preserved and shown in the Louvre.This movie has everything a guy wants. Super hot babes frequently undressed and terrific laughs.Best part of all, the DVD commentary with The Legend Jim Wynorski and Lenny Juliano is hands down the best DVD commentary in history. It's so good I can't watch the movie straight out, I have to listen to the commentary.Do yourself a favor and buy about 10 copies just in case one gets harmed or scratched.

3.0 out of 5 stars Where's the interview ?

P.R.S. · April 7, 2024

Some customers wrote about the interview chapter on this DVD with Traci & the Director. This copy I bought did not have it otherwise I would have given it another STAR.

5.0 out of 5 stars another corman cult fav.

boop? ran out of pithy ideas. time for a powernap.

4.0 out of 5 stars 2 different releases and the key differences

S. · May 28, 2024

Just to clear up some confusion - the 2001 New Concorde release doesn’t have the special features that the 2010 Shout Factory release does. (New commentary and a Traci Lords interview) But the 2010 release costs twice as much so chose carefully when deciding which release to buy. It depends on your priorities.

Shock and Awe !!!!!!!
