Reptileenbu Did you people see the same film I saw?

WillSushyMedia This movie was so-so. It had it's moments, but wasn't the greatest.

Taha Avalos The best films of this genre always show a path and provide a takeaway for being a better person.

Quiet Muffin This movie tries so hard to be funny, yet it falls flat every time. Just another example of recycled ideas repackaged with women in an attempt to appeal to a certain audience.

Michael Ledo Walter Paisley (Dick Miller) is a lowly bus boy at a beatnik coffee house. He aspires to be an artist. When he accidentally kills his cat Frankie, he covers it with clay and then displays it as art. It is a hit and before long he is doing humans.The covered up corpse being art has been duplicated in later horror films. Dick Miller plays and excellent Walter in this short feature. This is available on multi-packs, which is where I viewed this one. It was not restored and would recommend watching something restored.

classicsoncall If you're cruising through the cable channel listings and see this title pop up, how can you give it a pass? Especially when the station presenting it is Turner Classics - they know an awful lot about movies, don't they? This turned out to be another Roger Corman directed, shoestring budget film that's just off-kilter enough to make it a minor cult classic.I thought Dick Miller was perfect for the role of Walter Paisley, trying hard but never succeeding in the beatnik art world until he produces an eye catching sculpture courtesy of his landlady's dead cat. It was pretty convenient that when feline Frankie was pulled out from behind the wall, rigormortis had already set in after only the couple of seconds it took to break through it. I'm pretty sure we're not supposed to wonder how the cat got in there in the first place.Well the Yellow Door Café got it's new artistic wunderkind and it wouldn't take long for the astute viewer to figure out how Walter would make an even bigger splash on the beat scene. If the murders weren't so gruesome, this story could have been an episode on any number of anthology shows of the era like 'The Twilight Zone', 'Thriller' or even 'Way Out', though the better venue might have been 'Tales From the Crypt' a few decades down the road.

Nick Retzlaff his movie made by Roger Corman in 1959 starts off with a guy doing poetry in an old coffee shop. The main character is a busboy named Walter, played by Dick Miller. Also there's an undercover cop that hangs out out at the coffee shop, as a way to scope out criminals.Walter tries to do sculptures at but doesn't quite know what to do. Until he tries to get a cat out of his wall but ends up killing it. He decides to sculpt over the cat and tries to put it in the coffee shop. The people seem to like the sculpture even though it doesn't seem to stink. Also the cat would be heavy even with clay on it. Everyone at the coffee shop seems to like it but the undercover cop is suspicious about it.This woman at the coffee shop gives Walter a little tube of something and he takes it with him. A guy then follows him to his home and tells him he's an undercover cop. Also that he's under arrest for position of heroine since that's what was in the tube. Walter ends up killing him since he doesn't want to go so he kills him.The owner of the coffee shop finds out Walter's first sculpture was fake when it falls. He tries to call the cops but the buyer gives him a lot of money for it. Walter then shows the owner and this girl he likes his new sculpture. Which is the cop guy just sculpted over and the girl suggests a collection of his sculptures. Walter then is happy when he gets money for his sculptures and that he's an artist, even though he murdered someone.Walter then kills a woman at his home after a fight they had at the coffee shop then sculpts over her as well. All the coffee shop people like him and like more sculptures. So he ends up killing a random guy for another sculpture.Walter then one night asks the girl she likes to marry him but she refuses. He then asks to sculpt her after his collection exhibit show and she find out they're fake and people. After Walter chases the girl the people at the art show find out the sculptures are people as well. The undercover cop and some of the coffee shop people chase Walter and try to find him.At the end he hears the voices of the people he murders and at his home he still hears them. So he ends up hanging himself as his greatest work and to stop. This movie seems pretty good for a Roger Corman movie and it's mostly a black comedy.

atinder I thought this movie was surprising really good, I did not expect to like this movie as much as I did As it a some-what short movie, the movie dose not drag at all and it not always action packed. I really liked the plot the movie, was really intruding and I liked how story flowed really well.I liked some of deaths scenes in this movie, most of them were impaled.it's was clever as they made to see deaths with out even seeing themI really liked this movie Really good acting from the whole cast 8 out of 10
