the story goes that playwright - filmmaker leslie stevens found god during a four - hour meeting with roman catholic priests following the national legion of decency ' s screening of his directorial debut , private property . that spiritual awakening , coupled with president kennedy ' s inaugural address , inspired stevens to make the land we love , a $ 275 , 000 widescreen adventure filmed on catalina island and bankrolled by united artists . when it was released a year later , this peculiar drama - - bereft of action for most of its running time - - was re - titled hero ' s island and promoted as a swashbuckling adventure (

hero ' s island is musty and meandering , but adventure films seem to be built upon lies , half - truths , and sudden reveals . the latter element only works - or works best - when an interminably long build - up has occurred . in this case , the element in question is jacob weber ' s ( james mason ) true identity . when the moment finally comes to pass , mason is atop a mountain ( closer to a hillside ) , brandishing a cutlass , and proclaiming his real name - one that strikes terror in the hearts of men…

hero’s island , ” a movie i’d never heard of and now streaming on netflix , is a 1962 pirate ( sort of ) / survival film set in the early 18th century of the carolinas coast . written and directed by relative newcomer leslie stevens ( he had only one previous screen credit , “the marriage go - round , ” a comedy starring james mason and susan hayward , based on his own play ) , the movie defies almost every expectation you’d have from what seems from the title like a genre movie while it becomes a very watchable adventure tale where , in spite of that title , there are few traditional heroes .

in 1718 a recently freed family of indentured workers inherits the small uninhabited bull island off the carolina coast . the family consist of husband and wife , one son , and a second son . . . see full summary »
former indentured servants settle on a small island off the coast of carolina in hopes of starting a new life . they are plagued by fishermen who claim the island for their own . a woman ' s husband is killed in an attack and stranger jacob webber ( james mason ) is washed ashore . he claims to be the only survivor of an attack by pirates . when the merciless kingstree ( neville brand ) is employed by the attackers , a seaman named nicolas ( rip torn ) decries the impending violence and is throw off the boat to die . he makes it to the island where he falls in with the settlers to defend against the invasion . kingstree discovers webber is the former henchman of blackbeard the pirate . kingstree is killed by nicolas , the man he threw off the boat . webber flees the wrath of the settlers and rejoins his band of bloodthirsty buccaneers to escape death once again . the film is produced , directed and written by leslie stevens .
there ' s a nice cast in this distinctive movie , with james mason in the lead . i got this one a long time ago and couldn ' t remember the general story , thinking it was more like swiss family robinson , but no . this one is serious throughout , with few moments of levity . i has a strange sort of quirky low budgetness to it , but that ' s partly because very little travelling is done here . it does fit , though , …
decent film set in 1718 about a family of freed indentured workers who are given an island * by their former employer and intend to start a new life there . however , they find out that they are not alone and a struggle for their own survival soon begins . . .
genuinely stumbled upon this period piece swashbuckler on account of its unbelievable cast : warren oates , rip torn , ( harry ) dean stanton , and james mason ( also credited as one of the producers , as with ray ' s bigger than life ) .
18th century period piece about a family of indentured servants who inherit an island off the carolina coast but come up against a group of fisherman who live there . a bit milder material than the awesome cast ( warren oates , rip torn , harry dean stanton , neville brande james mason ) would suggest , still a decent watch that moves right along . written and directed by the outer limits ' leslie stevens with music by dominic frontiere , you can definitely see and hear tol in this non - fantastical work .
there ' s some nice location scenery to look at and james mason delivers a decent performance as do some of the supporting players but this moves at a crawl for the first hour and even when it picks up towards the end it still isn ' t that exciting . the main actress is stiff and uncharismatic a major defect since so much of the story revolves around her . if you ' re a fan of pirate movies there are many others that would satisfy better than this , blackbeard the pirate with robert newton and linda darnell chief among them .

the stars of the itv2 show were mobbed by friends , family and admiring fans as they arrived back at stansted airport following a morning flight from mallorca .
as well as colourful banners and signs welcoming home contestants , there were tears of joy and excitement as loved ones rushed forward to greet the villa stars .

he was seen admiring the banner they ' ve brought before joining them for a group hug .
his girlfriend amber , meanwhile , was welcomed home with posters emblazoned with her name .
the person with the £50k then had the choice to steal the cash or split it .
it was kem who ended up with the prize money and , without hesitating , said of course he ' d be sharing it .
well obviously we’ll be splitting it !
he laughed , when asked by caroline for his decision .
runners - up camilla thurlow and jamie jewitt posed for the cameras at stansted looking blissfully happy .

green slimes are enemies from the secret quest of find mii ii . they only have 3 hp , making them the weakest enemy in the series . magic can be used while fighting one , but red , blue , and purple magic are completely useless , as they are immune to them . in addition , unlike every other slime , green slimes are immune to yellow magic . green slimes are very evasive , and able to avoid sword attacks real easily . however , light blue and light green magic will lower the evasion capabilities of the green slime significantly , the former of which freezes enemies , and the latter of which makes them fall asleep . however , it is still possible to miss .

this is the oldest technique developed by users of slime release , which was commonly used especially during the warring states period which were few users who carried vats with withstand a considerable amount of liters of slime . using this technique the user releases its slime chakra concentrating on the nitrogen molecules and on the small particles of water vapor dispersed in the air . from this contamination , the user needs to clap its hands to the amount of slime created being restricted . then the user will release a greater quantity of his chakra so that the processing is faster . so that when separate its hands the slime created can be seen and then manipulated the way the user wants .
another unfortunate fact about green slime : even a single drop of blood will grow into a new monster . so now you have dozens of pissed off sigmunds running around electrocuting the crew , good job rankin .

green slimes are the weakest of all slimes , and are also one of the most common ones to encounter . as green slimes spawn commonly in the forest during the daytime , they are likely the first enemy a player will come across in a new world . green slimes will not target the player under usual circumstances , but will become aggressive when damaged , during the night , or if brought underground .

focusing on rankin as an embodiment of orphaned social commentary makes watching the green slime an even more delirious experience than it would have been anyway . this is , overall , an exceedingly clumsy and ridiculous film . the actors were quite plainly chosen more for their willingness to fly to japan and work for chump change than they were for their ability to convey character or deliver a line of dialogue . the decision to put a japanese firm in charge of the special effects was a somewhat unfortunate one , for although the green slime is said to have been budgeted at nearly three times the average level for a japanese film of the late 1960ís , that still wasnít a lot of money by hollywood standards , and the green slime would be playing to audiences who had already seen 2001 : a space odyssey . the monster suits , as befits their origin , are imaginative to the point of overkill , and any dedicated monster movie fan will spend much of the film marveling over the profusion of apparently functionless growths , protuberances , and extrusions that cover the creaturesí bodies . and most of all , like the majority of its decadeís science fiction films , the green slime features production design which seems to have been predicated upon the assumption that the world of the future was simply going to become more and more like the late 1960ís with each passing year . naturally , all these things are the source of the green slime ís charm , but when you consider them in tandem with fukasakuís apparent goal of making something like dr . strangelove in outer space , the result is nothing less than an alchemy of madness .

an apocryphal story about that scene and the creation of the green slime comes from mathew klickstein ' s slimed ! an oral history of nickelodeon ' s golden age . geoffrey darby , producer of you can ' t do that on television , explained that the slime was never meant to be slime . they ' d prepared a bucket of food slop to dump on the kid ' s head . after waiting for a week due to unexpected delays ,
. . . there were eight inches of green crud growing over the top of the bucket .
but time was running too short to make a new bucket of refuse .
we had to get the scene . we couldn ' t get more slop . . . so we said , dump it on the kid anyway .

from 1990 until the mid 2000s , the best place to get slimed was at nickelodeon studios in orlando , florida . it was a hybrid of a soundstage and a theme park , where they held tapings of shows like double dare , clarissa explains it all , legends of the hidden temple , and much more . there was also a lot of slime . one attraction known as the
slime geyser
spewed the green stuff into the air , while the tapings of live shows that encouraged audience participation kept the kids soaked in it .
the kids who grew up in the 90s still have now become nostalgic for all things nickelodeon—including the slime . there ' s a live - streaming website dedicated to nick reruns where you can watch countless hours of slimming . and there have been innumerable petitions to bring back nickelodeon ' s original slime - laden 90s - era programming .

monster movies produced in partnership between american and japanese studios are very rarely good , but you can nearly always count on them for a wild rideó so now just imagine what happens when you add italians to the mix , too ! the mgm - distributed the green slime grew out of a collaboration between toei and a little - remembered us production company called ram ; that much is generally known . but what isnít reported as widely is that ram appears to have drawn a substantial proportion of its funding from italy , and if you know what to look for , it isnít hard to spot that influence on the film . most visibly , the green slime features a notable italian b - movie glamour girl in a major role , but perhaps more importantly , its basic story was devised by ivan reiner , who had earlier contributed to the screenplays of antonio margheritiís notoriously loopy space station gamma 1 tetralogy ( the wild , wild planet , war of the planets , planet on the prowl , and the snow devils ) . a number of plot points in the green slime will be so familiar to fans of the gamma 1 films that they might be tempted to interpret this movie as being set in the same fictional world . in any case , with reiner doing the plotting and kinji fukasaku in the directorís chair , is it any wonder that the green slime wound up being one of the most deeply bizarre sci - fi films of the 1960ís ?
green slimes are more likely to spawn in place of other enemies when the player is within 200 blocks of the world ' s spawn point . this does not occur in
directing duties were handed to kinji fukasaku , who was in the process of making a name for himself at toei , and had just had a bona - fide hit with the edogawa rampo - inspired black lizard ( 1968 ) whilst moonlighting for shochiku . indeed , a campy sci - fi romp like the green slime may seem a bizarre choice of project for those who are only familiar with fukasaku ' s infamous battle royale ( 2000 ) or his grisly , criminal - centric jitsuroku ( true account ) films that exploded in popularity during the 1970s . nevertheless , his involvement in the green slime ' caused fukasaku considerable embarrassment in later years ' [ 3 ] .
after destroying a giant asteroid heading towards earth , a group of scientists unknowingly bring back a strange green substance that soon mutates into a monster .
lisa is checking her considerably increased patients ( most professional stethoscope work . really . ) when rankin wanders in . he pauses to ask one patient
hows the hand ?
( hilariously , he responds to the injured guys helpless gesture by raising that damn thumb again !
hey , look what i can do !
) then tells lisa that the station has been completely quarantined , so that she will not be able to send the badly injured to earth for treatment . rankin and elliott devise a plan to lure the slime guys into a storage room , where they can be confined . the lights are shut off all over the station , and the lights on a
power beam search car
used as bait . but the slime guys have ideas of their own , and burst in on lisas patients ( who are really having a bad day ! ) . more screaming and bed pushing follows . lisa invokes her
heroines death battle exemption
, as she is clearly whacked across the head with a tentacle , but not electrocuted . rankin orders all lights doused , gets the attention of one of the slime guys by chucking a large flashlight at it ( he just loves chucking things ) , then uses another one to draw the slime guys after him . this manoeuvre traps him between two slime guys , but duck - roll - somersault gets him out of it . lisa evacuates her patients and shuts an airlock between them and the slime guys . meanwhile , rankin is surrounded by slime guys , but elliott saves him by drawing them to him . the rest of the procedure goes to plan and the slime guys are trapped . but just as rankin is going from square - jaw - serious to smug - bastard - grin , they hear a noise . oops ! guess you forgot about the slime guy in the isolation ward , hey , big shot ?
rankin and a small team fly out to the asteroid with a bomb and drilling equipment . they succeed in destroying it , but one of the team unknowingly brings back a sample of slimy residue that they encountered on the asteroid surface in abundance . attaching itself surreptitiously to the crew member ' s space suit , the slime survives decontamination and begins to grow , evolving into a green , diminutive , one - eyed teratoid with long , electrified tentacles . they begin to multiply and run amok on the station , creating a power - struggle between rankin and elliott . the former , though retired , still has the instinct to lead , whereas the latter , whilst technically in command , doesn ' t have the mettle to resolve the crisis ( in the eyes of rankin at least ) . so rankin , elliott and benson must ignore their personal tensions and work together in rescuing gamma three from the sentient green slime .
hi , i have a philips perfectcare aqua steam iron , which is generally very good . however , it has developed green slime in the water reservoir which is coming out on clothes as i iron them . i can ' t find the instruction manual , to find out what to do . does anyone have any ideas on how to sort it out please ?
in the infirmary , dr lisa is checking her patients ( hey , she must be a doctor  shes got a stethoscope ! ) when she hears a strange noise . next thing we know , slime guys in the room ! much screaming and rushing around and waving of tentacles ensues . slime guy is shot , and bleeds copiously , before rankin can revoke the original
shoot to kill
order ( might have been a good idea to put that over the p . a . , hey , jack ? ) . rankin and elliott use the infirmarys beds  metal - framed beds , mind you  to keep slime guy at a safe distance while everyone else escapes the room . rankin takes off his metal helmet and chucks it at slime guy before doing something almost as irritating as his grin  a spectacular duck - roll - somersault to get himself out of harms way . they trap slime guy in the isolation ward ( heh ! ) , and then halverson points out that the spilled blood is already growing . they lock it in the infirmary . rankin calls for the
monitor car

, rankin , elliot and some men hurriedly launch a rocketship toward the asteroid , laying charges there to blow it up before it reaches earth . the mission is a success , but a green , globby liquid is brought back to the station unnoticed , and , rising from the soapy green suds little creatures grow and spread like a virus , creating hoards of clumsy but electrified and tentacled monsters !

the green fluorescent protein - encoding gene from aequorea victoria has been cloned into several different transforming vectors and expressed in the cellular slime molds , polysphondylium pallidum and dictyostelium discoideum . we find that the protein is stable and non - toxic in both species , can be easily visualized in living and fixed specimens , and can be used to purify rare cells by fluorescence - activated cell sorting ( facs ) .
you have to love a sci - fi movie that : 1 ) is a japanese - produced product featuring a mostly - anglo cast ( saves on dubbing cost ) . 2 ) has equivalent special effects of any given
godzilla
movie . 3 ) has italian bombshells named
sheila benson
. 4 ) gives you slime creatures that look like sigmund the sea monster . 5 ) has a mad doctor ( isn ' t that a pre - requisite for these movies ? thought so . ) . 6 ) has one of the all - time coolest title songs i have ever heard in my entire natural life . if you watch
the green slime
, just think : if jaeckel had brought the rest of his
dirty dozen
cronies along with him , the green slime would never have stood a chance . oh well . . . . seven stars . by the way , does anyone know where to get this movie ' s soundtrack ? i have got to get that song . . . .
the falling green goop was a defining characteristic of nickelodeon from the 80s onward . the first official sliming , as far as i can tell , comes from the first episode of you can ' t do that on television , which originally aired on cjoh - tv in ottawa in 1979 . during a skit where a kid is chained up for detention in a dungeon , he ' s told not to pull on his shackles . when he does , a toilet flushes and the signature green slime that has become so ubiquitous with nickelodeon pours down on his head . it ' s a great gag that brought on two decades of slop .
' tis true . one of broadway ' s better - looking leading men lurks in that hulking fat - suit , slathered down in green slime from dome to toe so that all that remains of james is his smile , teeth , eyes and eyebrows . happily , the first and the last are rather identifiable , if not trademarks , by now , and they give you something to go on .
the expedition to blow up flora is a success , but all does not go exactly according to plan . for one thing , the asteroid begins accelerating as it enters earthís gravity well , meaning that the timetable for the mission has to be stepped up as well , and the astronauts come very close to sharing in the destruction they visit upon the wayward space rock . but of greater importance , there turns out to be life on flora . wherever there is a concavity in the landscape , rankin , elliot , halvorsen , and the others encounter puddles of radiant green slime . the slime evidently consists of billions of microorganisms which possess some rudimentary sensory apparatus , and which somehow feed off of energy sources . for while the astronauts themselves remain unmolested by the slime , it slithers up to coat all of their mechanical and electronic equipment , and none of their devices will function after a few minutesí exposure to the substance . halvorsen collects a sample of the slime to bring back to gamma 3 , but rankin will have none of that . before he and his men re - embark aboard their ship for the trip home , rankin seizes halvorsenís sample jar and shatters it on the ground , refusing to countenance the idea of the scientist bringing any of that crud onto his space station . oh , waitó itís elliot ís space station , isnít it ?
i constructed my dripper system following the guidelines in the
mr green
video series . unfortunately i wasn ' t able to find that 8 headed water diverter , but made due with some small air diverters instead .
i watched this movie when i was about 8 or so . the first time my mother brother and i tried to watch it somebody had made a loop and kept playing
the green slime
over and over for four hours . we finally saw it later and i guess my youth and the fact we waited so long to see it made it a fair movie . by todays standards it is pitiful by the standards of the time it came out it was a b - movie .
in the end humanity is saved by crashing gamma 3 into earth ' s atmosphere , incinerating the green slime . thank goodness something stopped them besides throwing your laser rifle . the characters often unload at point blank range without effect . soon as they throw the weapon it goes right through the monster ' s eye . even if you don ' t like watching
spacemen
wearing white 1960 ' s police motorcycle helmets firing
laser guns
at waddling masses of latex monsters you have to love the title song .
was a fun saturday matinee in its day but compared to contemporary films in the same genre , it looks more and more like a parody .
the green slime
are clearly actors in monster suits - some of the goofiest you ' ll ever see - and the dialogue is consistently leaden with such cliched moments as the station ' s doctor ( ted gunther ) trying to save the slime from destruction :
don ' t kill it , it ' s a magnificent discovery !
it also doesn ' t help that the film is burdened with a romantic triangle subplot - gamma iii nurse lisa ( paluzzi ) is torn between former boyfriend jack ( horton ) and current beau vince ( jaeckel ) - that continually brings the action to a grinding halt .
besides gangster movies , fukasaku also made science - fiction films of quality , such as gamma dai sango ( the green slime , 1968 ) and fukkatsu no hi ( virus , 1980 ) . he also filmed part of the massively tedious american war film tora ! tora ! tora ! ( 1970 ) , in which he shot the attack on pearl harbor seen from the japanese side – the most interesting part of the film . his works began to be shown in the us , and he became a hero to quentin tarantino and john woo .
as you can ' t do that on television grew in popularity , the show became one of the first major purchases of nickelodeon . unsure of who their target audience was , nickelodeon ran syndicated episodes of the canadian show all the time . it was a huge hit that helped define the early days of the channel . as the series progressed , one thing was abundantly clear—kids loved the slime .
i waited and waited for this movie to come on television after weeks of ads in the 1970 ' s , and it did not disappoint . firstoff , the title is not true . there is no slime in this movie . the aliens have tentacles and are electric . the title infers a blob - like movie . wrong . it sorta reminded me of the space 1999 two - parter
dragon ' s domain
. lots of astronauts were tentacled by the
green slime
aliens which had invaded their base . it had a very japanese b - movie feel to it . lots of action , but not very scary . many cheese scenes , but watching it with a light - attitude , it can be fun .
of course , the green slime is not to be taken seriously and is arguably a camp classic waiting to be re - discovered . everything about the production is wantonly silly , not least the titular alien creatures which squeak and shriek like high - pitched , un - oiled door hinges , hobble about due to their short legs and flay their tentacle - arms wildly , electrocuting crew members unconvincingly . more often than not , they operate in plain sight and are not particularly menacing , especially when you consider that most areas of the space station are brightly lit ; looking flat and non - threatening . with better creature design , a bit more shadow in the sets and a more earnest execution , the green slime could have easily been a noteworthy progenitor to ridley scott ' s brooding sci - fi / horror alien ( 1979 ) . while there are certainly some plot similarities , their respective tones couldn ' t be further apart .

after a perilous mission to a huge asteroid , a crew returns to its space station , unaware a bit of ooze from the asteroid clings to a crewman ' s uniform . the green goop grows - into murderous , tentacled monsters . and as station members fight to live , gunk from the monsters ' wounds turns into more monsters ! that ' s the story . now enjoy as our heroes fight to preserve earth and , unintentionally , our own senses of humor with a movie that kevin thomas of the los angeles times called
one of the funniest made - in - japan sci - fi monster movies ever .
kinji fukasaku , whose later work was championed by quentin tarantino , directs . the world would be a far more bleak and joyless place without marvels like the green slime .
the green slime was the first monster film that really stands out in my childhood memories ( from the 1960s ) , what i recall most clearly is the creatures being prominently displayed on the cover of famous monsters of filmland , a required reading as part of growing up in 60s america itself . it was the first issue of that magazine my mother refused to buy for me , subsequently my whining and wheedling got here to take me later that week to see the movie at our local drive - in , of course it was paired up with another ' rubber monster ' b - movie of which ' s title i have forgotten . one last note to this story is the scene in the concession stand between films when i discovered a huge ( well , larger than child - sized me at the time ) stand - up lobby poster with a near life - sized green slime monster , this was going home with me so off i carried it to the car , the theater manager just smiled and nodded , my mother had other ideas , so with a slightly stinging butt i watched the second feature pinning over my lost treasure .

unfortunately , sliming ain ' t what it used to be . with the so - called
glory days
of nickelodeon waning ( numbers took a sharp downturn in 2012 ) , slime has been relegated to award shows and youtube clips . the nickelodeon studios theme park , where kids could go to get slimed in real life , was shut down in 2004 . the only place to get doused in green goo seems to be a nickelodeon - themed resort in orlando where water - park games include the occasional sliming .
on the other hand , maybe fukasaku was the right man for message from space after all . having directed the green slime as well as the attack sequences for the pearl harbor dramatisation tora tora tora ( 1970 ) , he was a seasoned handler of sizable international co - productions and a multi - ethnic cast ; a skill set few other japanese directors had at the time ( only those working in tv advertising with foreign stars had comparable experience ) . fukasaku would go on to direct virus ( 1980 ) , another large - scale science fiction production with an international cast .
when the astronauts land to place their bombs they find the asteroid is inhabited by strange blobs of glowing slime that are drawn to the equipment . after blasting off and barely escaping the massive explosion ( imagine an orange and brown papier mache ' ball with half a stick of dynamite inside and you ' re golden . ) the heroes return to space station gamma 3 .
eventually , the network cashed on slime and started hawking it to kids in various goofy spin - off products . nickelodeon slime shampoo , by fisher - price , became all the rage when it pretty much invented the kids haircare market in the late 80s . and toy sales of a nick - branded slimy substance , gak , soared in the 1990s ( and is still on sale today ) . as erik davis reported in the village voice in 1993 ,
last year , gak was mattel ' s best - selling product , and this year the company estimates it will sell 8 million ' splats ' —the air - tight plastic containers that package gak .
initial issue # 2 - the
mr . green
series seems like it ' s very in depth to the total newb , but alas as i tried to put together my list of things necessary i started running into big gaps in certain very important details .
the green slime
is one of those movies that must of seemed like a good idea at the time . toyko must wonder what happened to the money they spent on effects . i still think it ' s a great way to kill 90min . how can you not like a movie who ' s star is a wax figure ! ! luckly all the other bad effects , bad acting , & the last word in 60 ' s theme songs ( have airsick bag handy ! ! ) help take some of the sting of the wax mans acting ! sit down drink up or light up and have a good time ! ! ! !
the actress , who now officiates weddings and stars in indie films , explained that the slime they used to get doused in was a bit of a nuisance .
the green color would just stain your bras and underwear forever .
according to her , your best bet was to ,
sit straight up or lean back a little bit . . . if you ' re gonna get slimed , get slimed . don ' t curl up in a ball and let it run down your back . . . into your buttcrack .

i was just a kid when the local theater began handing out little metal badges , stickers , and even rubber
green slimes
all proclaiming that
the green slime is coming
weeks before the flick showed up . my friends and i were stoked to say the least . and then it arrive , and were we disappointed ? hell no , it was great fun . plenty of space ships , rayguns and monsters ! man , it was a more innocent time then , i tell you ! not to mention it was on as a double feature with a chris lee
fu manchu
flick that opened with a big guy chopping off someones head with an axe ! man , those were the days . . . . . i have it on video and i think i will go put it on right now !
the classic sci - fi ultimate collection : volume 2 ( dr . cyclops / cult of the cobra / the land of the unknown / the deadly mantis / the leech woman )
after seeing the scene , i ' m dubious . the slime doesn ' t look like rotten and moldy food . and who would dump that on a kid ? ( i t ' s worth noting that klickstein went on to give a career - killing racist and sexist interview while promoting his book . )
the green slime starts with commander jack rankin ( horton ) being pulled out of retirement and assigned a mission that is pretty standard by now : stop a wayward asteroid that ' s on a collision course with earth . he docks at his former command post , the space station gamma three , to prepare for the task at hand ; re - acquainting himself with former comrade and best friend commander vince elliott ( jaeckel ) , who is now in charge , and old love - interest dr . lisa benson ( paluzzi ) , who is now engaged to elliott .
maybe if we think about zubaz at the same time as we remember old episodes of pete & pete , we ' ll come out of our reverie with a clearer picture of our nascent years . were the 1990s kind of slimy ? sure , but as lori beth denberg told me on the phone ,
don ' t hide from the slime , embrace it .
gamma 3 on fire is one of the films funnier sights . the special effects guys really overdid it here : the whole station looks like its engulfed in flames . for all that , the airlock door confining the slime guys remains undamaged . impressive . using the
monitor car
, it is discovered that some of the slime guys are actually dead . it is concluded that although they can absorb most energies , intense heat will kill them . however , there are only a few slime guys there . most of them , to rankin and elliotts chagrin , are on the outside of the station , calmly healing themselves in the rays of the sun . rankin tells lisa to get her patients together and ready to be moved ( again ? ) , then announces that the entire station will be evacuated , and the station itself destroyed . elliott goes berserk , and rankin has him put under arrest . elliott snaps and swings an almighty punch at rankin  and misses ! ( aaarrgh ! vince , you useless , useless - - - ) everyone starts being loaded into the cruisers in which they will return to earth , but it is discovered that the escape hatch wont open . why ? because its covered in slime guys ! rankin orders a team with lasers to go up and blast a few . overhearing , elliott  not in any kind of confinement , you notice  decides hes the man for the job and takes captain martins place . when lisa begs him not to go , he abuses her , accusing her of still being in love with rankin . lisa looks deeply wounded ( though not wrinkly ) and fiddles with her stethoscope . anyway , elliott and co . go outside , and much blasting of slime guys ensues . the escape hatch is opened , and the first evacuees can leave . elliott goes on blasting until his gun runs out of power , and then , of course , he throws it at a slime guy . and here , oh gentle readers , we must pause for a moments awed silence  because it works ! the laser gun impales the slime guy through its eye and it drops on the spot ! all hail vince elliott ! ! not content with this minor miracle , elliott scoops up a wounded teammate and carries him to safety . on gamma 3 , a watching rankin , secure in the knowledge that vince cant see him , shakes his head with an admiring , rather than smug , grin . ( well  actually , its still pretty smug . )
in its opening reels , the film also prefigures elements of michael bay ' s star - studded , disaster epic armageddon ( 1998 ) , which sees a mixed team of astronauts and deep - sea oil drillers sent to stop a comet that will collide with earth . using advanced drilling equipment , they plan on burying a nuclear weapon that will cause the comet to break away into two pieces that will avoid the planet . the green slime starts with this same basic scenario , except their drilling equipment doesn ' t look particularly advanced – a flimsy looking moon buggy with a large drill bit attached to a movable arm .
when an asteroid is detected on a collision course with earth , with only hours left to prevent a catastrophe , the retiring head of space station gamma 3 ( see space stations ) , jack rankin ( horton ) , is recruited to lead an expedition to the asteroid to plant explosives there and destroy the asteroid before it strikes earth . while there , an astronaut picks up a piece of strange green slime found on the ground , and when he returns , insufficient decontamination allows the small blob of green slime to begin growing into a small army of one - eyed , tentacled monsters that are soon menacing the crew of the space station by electrocuting people and apparently feeding upon the station ' s energy sources . at first , new station commander vince elliott ( jaeckel ) , also the fiancé of rankin ' s ex - girlfriend , dr lisa benson ( paluzzi ) , resents rankin ' s insistence upon destroying the creatures and wishes to preserve them for study ; but soon , everyone recognizes that these virulent monsters must be exterminated before they reach earth . now asserting his authority , rankin orders the evacuation and destruction of the space station , though these plans are complicated by monsters lurking outside the station . when other efforts to kill them prove insufficient , rankin decides to stay behind and fight them , vince chooses to join him , and vince is killed fighting the monsters . but rankin survives , ready to reconcile with benson , while the station falls into earth ' s atmosphere and burns up , destroying the monsters .
gamma one producers ivan reiner and walter manley ( the man behind the u . s . iterations of the super giant films ) were keen to perpetuate this model by making the green slime as an unofficial fifth entry in the series . however , the only link it has to its italian predecessors is the name of the space station – changed slightly to gamma three – which features a similar design to the one seen in margheriti ' s films . a completely new cast was assembled , fronted by american tv star robert horton ( alfred hitchcock presents ( 1956 - 60 ) ) , italian glamour goddess luciana paluzzi ( thunderball ( 1965 ) ) and prolific american supporting actor richard jaeckel ( the dirty dozen ( 1967 ) ) . minor roles were ' comprised of various amateur and semi - professional caucasian actors living in japan ' [ 2 ] .
this place was very basic . not a resort . rude staff . a bar but with warm beer and not selling until 7 pm ( not that we are big drinkers but like one cold drink in the afternoon . the pool is filthy , green and slimy ( see photos ) . the tvs have no reception . the staff are rude and unhelpful and they . . .
no doubt you ' ve encountered this cranky critter before — in any one of three animated feature films which have been dreamworks goldmines . this is his first outing as a broadway musical - comedy star , and there was a lot of wearing of the green among the first - nighters to make him feel relatively at home in the big city .
, with papier - mache models of space craft and warty green space monsters that are all too palpably little men in rubberized monkey suits , the whole thing would be laughably naive if caught at a saturday matinee . the laughter stops , though , when one releases that it comes from once - mighty metro .
considering the amount of interaction occurring between japanese studios and u . s . distribution companies over the preceding decade , it was only a matter of time before a fully - fledged co - production was on the cards . space - set science fiction / horror the green slime ( 1968 ) was one of the first of these co - productions ; a joint venture between mgm in the u . s . , who provided the money and script , and toei , who provided the crew and their shooting facilities in tokyo . it was a business model that potentially made a lot of sense : utilising the genre expertise of the japanese to realise a project sympathetic to american sensibilities , without the need to dub or re - edit , or put up anymore with questionable inclusions – lest we forget the
wally the walrus
incident from gorath ( 1962 ) . an all - western cast was also an added bonus , meaning that the film could be better integrated into mainstream circulation with other u . s . releases .
as a guide as much as tsuburaya ' s work . some sequences are very imaginatively conceived , but others are too ambitious for what money and time allowed . one shot of the green slimes clinging to the hull of the space station looks as if it were done with finger puppets . for the record , the picture ' s visual effects were done by japan special effects movie co . , ltd . ( nippon tokusatsu eiga kabushikigaisha ) , the same people who did
a giant asteroid is heading toward earth so some astronauts disembark from a nearby space station to blow it up . the mission is successful , and they return to the station unknowingly bringing back a gooey green substance that mutates into one - eyed tentacled monsters that feed off electricity . soon the station is crawling with them , and people are being zapped left and right !

jayaram ' s ' theerthadanam ' was nominated for the national awards in the recent year , but has been rejected at the last stage .

and mahendra said the awards were dominated by just two movies , ` ` theerthadanam ' ' and ` ` megha malhar ' ' . they shared 13 of the 16 awards announced . jayaram , who endeared himself to the tamil audience with his doctor routine in ` ` thenali ' ' , has bagged the best actor award for his sterling performance as an aging teacher in love with his student in ` ` theerthadanam ' ' .

recently i saw the movie adaptation of his short story - “theerthadanam” on t . v - actually i did not find it as brilliant as some of his other works - but then m . t is m . t and there is always a certain aesthetic echelon that is maintained…i had read this story before and feel that full justice has not been accomplished in the adaptation . i am unable to pin point the flaws…and this is not a review… .
employs some classic story telling techniques with theerthadanam . we usually support the protagonist as the story is told from his point of view . what nair does is he tells the whole story from karunakaran ' s perspective and you start feeling for his lost love , and you don ' t care about the vinodhini character . but when the climax happens it turns the whole table and your whole sympathy goes to vinodhini and all your opinion about karunakaran , changes in a minute . he falls in our eyes , as he had enjoyed a good life and all he was doing was chasing his lost love of youth , whereas vinodhini has lost everything .

there is this retired school teacher - karunakaran…who is leading a reclusive life with his wife…kind of aloof - into his own world of unresolved thoughts and memories . most of the time he spends reliving the past especially those which revolved around one of his students from years ago . this girl - vinodini drops in a letter , card once in a while - and always signs as respectfully vinodini…that she was much more than just another student is shown in intermittent flashes into the past…both the sir and the student had a special soft corner for each other , but left it unsaid…
when the movie begins , we find the aged teacher reading the latest last from his student , in which she has “carelessly” mentioned that she would be visiting the mukambika temple when she was coming on a few days leave in the next few days .
the master who is not exactly bubbling with health tells his wife he would like to visit the mukambika temple in the following days . the wife is worried about his ill health and suggests he take with him the young boy in the neighbourhood - also a relative . the master agrees half heartedly . the master and the boy take leave of his wife and proceed to mukambika . here , we see that the master is of a melancholic dispositon , and his relationship with his wife of many years is a bit hollow - in the sense that while they care for eachother , there is really no “soul mate” - thinking alike kind of relationship – just a very functional , mutually beneficial kind of sharing . the master languishes in his own world - as if stuck to the past , while the wife is a practical , down to earth person . it is not mentioned if their early years where different…she reminds him to take his medicines regularly as he leaves…he is in a hurry to reach the station . .
the master arrives at the temple - he prays at the sanctum sanctorium , he is doing his perambulations around the temple - while his eyes are searching for someone in the crowd . the boy dutifully reminds the master to take his medicine - and is only too happy to stay back in the hotel room and eat …
the sauparnika lake – the surroundings are all beautifully picturised - but i am afraid i did not notice the song that was running in the background…the temple precincts , the crowds - distracted me…and i too was eagerly looking out for somebody…almost as eager as the master himself .
on the second day , the master emerges from the temple tank after his bath , he is climbing up the steps…and suddenly he stops - the woman who just passed by…he slowly turns back and she was also just pausing to have a second look - they look at eachother’s eyes…first recognizing the other - both had changed almost beyond recognition - time had caused irreparable ravages on their countenace - first there is disbelief , then there is a unique joy , and finally the shock after having assessed the changes that time had wrought upon the other’s face…we have already seen how different they looked in the flashback clips . life had been obviously harsh to them and perhaps harsher for vinodini .
vinodini says that while she had mentioned that she would be visiting mukambika , she was hoping that the master would perhaps make a trip too at the same time…she asks him to wait so that they could pray at the temple together . after offering prayers they have breakfast at a nearby hotel . they catch up with incidents of the past - the master notices that vinu is very finance conscious - that her attire is very simple , her slippers were worn out…it haunts him - he remembers she used to belong to a rather well off family . vinu expresses her wish to visit kudajadri - a nearby sacred place which is uphill and difficult to reach - the hotel manager informs them that jeep service was available , but for vinu , the rates were exorbitant . the master offers that he could make arrangements to go there and she could join him . vinu is hesitant at first but agrees later .
again in between we are taken into the past through the master’s and vinu’s memories - friends of the master and vinu used to tease them about their obvious affection for eachother…but they do not ever express it to eachother themselves . we get to know how the master gets transferred to another school in another place , how vinu’s father does not approve of the polite , affectionate letters from the master and finally the master stops writing to his student . vinu however sends a few lines , a new year card once in a while which the master treasures and keeps reading time and again .
the next day , the master persuades his young companion to stay back at mukambika , and leaves for kudajadri with vinu . during the trip uphill , vinu talks to the master about her difficulties , she was a teacher working in chennai , how it was very difficult for her to make ends meet - she had to send money home to her ailing mother . she also says that she would be entitled to a better pay if she could do a course equivalent to b . a but is unable to do so because of financial constraints .
the master asked her why she never got married…she said that there was some “dosham” - flaw in her horoscope and so a suitable alliance never materialized and eventually her father fell ill and died , and the years passed unnoticed in the sheer effort of living a daily life . the master talks about his wife “ammutty” , children who were living elsewhere . vinu informs him that she had always updated herself with his news . the master remains silent . they reach kutajadri by dusk , avail lodgings at a small home in the place - run by a priest and his family and provided shelter and food to pilgrims . the driver guides them along the hilly trek , and thus the two pilgrims make the pilgrimage of their life together for a brief snatch of time -
the master offers prayers in his name and vinodini’s and she is amazed that he still remembered her birth star . the priest conducts a puja and offers prayers to the deity on their behalf . the hosts have naturally assumed that the two were a couple and the two don’t deny it either . later at dinner time , the hosts relate the story of their hardships and vinu tells the master afterwards that her hardships paled in comparison .
after dinner , the two pilgrims sit by the lake nearby . . for some time they share a companionable silence and eventually the master asked vinu why she had rejected his proposal for her hand in marriage many years ago . vinu is taken by surprise and she says she never knew he had ever proposed ! then the master explains that a mutual friend had talked to her father many years ago on his behalf seeking vinu’s hand in marriage . vinu’s father had rejected the proposal outright and the master had naturally assumed that vinu knew about it . a shattered vinu reveals that she never knew about it and she utters vehemently - the only moment when the otherwise softspoken vinu explodes involuntarily in suppressed fury - “dushtan” - meaning - “the cruel one” incriminating her dead father . it was now the turn of the master to be shocked…it had never occurred to him that she had no inkling about his proposal . after this startling disclosure , followed a stunned , wistful , forlorn silence…vinu is unable to suppress her sobs and the master has no words of comfort to offer .
the host soon comes to call them inside to retire for the night . they realize that they have been offered a single room . at first , the two pilgrims are awkward , but eventually they accept the situation , and settle down to sleep on the single mat maintaining a polite distance between them .
the next morning , the two piligrims return to their respective homes , but before leaving the master asks vinu if he could help her to secure her b . a degree , that he was willing to sponsor her course fees , but vinu declines…they go their ways…it was a pilgrimage for the two of them not just in the religious sense - they had to make this pilgrimage to bring a closure to the blanks in their past…to come to terms with the “if only’s” and the “had beens”…
the master was played by the south indian actor jayaram and vinu was played by actress , director , social activist , suhasini - ( also manirathnam’s wife ) . jayaram was quite good - effectively underplaying the pathos - however his make up was jarring…suhasini was tolerable - i usually do not enjoy watching her mannerisms , the way she moves her hands , her crinkly smile , and a tendency to be carefully “natural” …however her voice over did not suit her…my opinion only…
i enjoyed the unspoken silences in the movie…m . t . has this way of making silences speak…he has written another novel _ randaamoozham _ – meaning the second turn alluding to bheema’s turn in his marital life with draupadi , in this novel , m . t . admits to have taken creative liberty to elaborate on certain blanks in the mahabharatha epic…certain incomplete insinuations - loud silences…and he has achieved that beautifully . . the entrie story unfurls from the pov of bheema…and is very interesting and intriguing . .
trying to reach a consensus between the perceived me and the real ( ? ? ? ) me . . .

won 2001 mathrubhumi - medimix film award for best malayalam film . won 2001 mathrubhumi - medimix film award for best actor - jayaram . won 2001 kerala state film award for best singer - k s chithra .
for a long time now , chennai ' s film industry was the epicentre of technical finesse . the best technicians for the celluloid medium got their breaks here , the responsibility for which was shouldered by directors like k . balachander , balu mahendra and maniratnam .
but when it came to ` ` meaningful ' ' cinema , malayalam scored heavily . malayalam movies were known for their substance , innate sense of regionality and spellbinding performances even if they were made on shoestring budgets . directors like adoor gopalakrishnan , aravindan and bharathan led from the front .
however , things are changing . ` ` if recent trends of the malayalam film industry are taken into account , there seems to be a role reversal . there is more good cinema coming out in tamil than malayalam today , ' ' balu mahendra says .
he is unhappy with some trends . as the chairman for the third mathrubhumi - medimix film awards 2001 jury , he sat through the top ten malayalam movies of last year as selected by the readers of the malayalam daily . and the end of it , mahendra was disappointed .
` ` it was absolutely easy to judge the best films , because there were hardly any quality movies . i remember the time when every year , at least ten movies used to compete for each award . i wonder where the quality movies have gone , ' ' he said . the other jury members , music director m . s . viswanathan , actress vidhubala , film critic sreevaraham balakrishnan and short story writer sreekumari ramachandran agree .
the malayalam film industry was adrift in a sea of debt , with almost all the big budget movies failing to set the cash register rolling . further , the soft - porn movies have begun to dominate the scene , the jury members said .
it would be another feather in the cap of playback singer chitra , while in the male singer category , jayachandran has bagged top honours . he was recently heard by tamil audiences in maniratnam ' s , ` ` kannathil muthamittal ' ' .
a talk show which brings two polarized sections of society on to a single .
cineulagam . com , launched in 2013 , is a leader in tamil cinema news websites industry that delivers up to minute , accurate and quality tamil cinema related news and updates . being the youngest website in the industry , cineulagam has overtaken the competitors in the field in a very short span of time , purely because we understand , care and deliver to the user’s expectations .
the 61st national film awards were announced yesterday and the suraj vanjaramoodu has obtained the best actor award , while north 24 katham has bagged the best malayalam movie award .
but the results were a big disappointment for jayaram . his film swapaanam has also been nominated for the awards . but the juries has rejected swapaanam in comparison to other movies .
suraj and rajkumar has been named as the best actors . eventhough this is a huge disappointment for jayaram , he didn ' t worried about it and congratulated the winners of the award winning suraj .
he has posted on his facebook page
congratz dear suraj for the national award . another proud moment for all malayalees . way more to go dear .
