Revenge of the Creature( Return of the Creature and Return of the Creature from the Black Lagoon) is the first of two Universal- International sequels to" Creature from the Black Lagoon". It was the only 3 D film released in 1955 and the only 3 D sequel to a 3 D film released during" the golden age of 3D". Produced by William Alland and directed by Jack Arnold( the director of the first Creature film), the film stars John Agar and Lori Nelson. It marked Clint Eastwood's film debut. " Revenge of the Creature" premiered in Denver on March 23, 1955 and a" flat", non-3 D sequel," The Creature Walks Among Us", followed in 1956. " Revenge" was released as a double feature with" Cult of the Cobra". <SEP> It is a short romantic silent movie, about a fisherman called Arend who leaves his beloved Marie to fish again in the North Sea for his work. The desperate Jan van der Velde( who secretly loves Marie) has sabotaged Arend's boat before he leaves. It sinks, and Marie never hears of him again.

His most notable films are" It Came from Outer Space"( 1953)," Creature from the Black Lagoon"( 1954)," Tarantula"( 1955), and" The Incredible Shrinking Man"( 1957). <SEP> The Creature was played by Ben Chapman on land and by Ricou Browning underwater. The film premiered in Detroit on February 12 and was released on a regional basis, opening on various dates. " Creature from the Black Lagoon" was filmed in 3D and originally projected by the polarized light method. The audience wore viewers with gray polarizing filters, similar to the viewers most commonly used today. Because the brief 1950s 3 D film fad had peaked in mid-1953 and was fading fast in early 1954, many audiences actually saw the film" flat", in 2D. Typically, the film was shown in 3D in large downtown theaters and flat in smaller neighborhood theaters. In 1975" Creature from the Black Lagoon" was re-released to theaters in the inferior red-and- blue- glasses anaglyph 3 D format, which was also used for a 1980 home video release on Beta and VHS videocassettes. For marketing reasons, a comedic appearance with Abbott and Costello on an episode of" The Colgate Comedy Hour" aired prior to the film's release. The appearance is commonly known as" Abbott and Costello Meet the Creature from the Black Lagoon". Creature from the Black Lagoon is a 1954 American black- and- white 3 D monster horror film from Universal- International, produced by William Alland, directed by Jack Arnold, that stars Richard Carlson, Julia Adams, Richard Denning, Antonio Moreno and Whit Bissell. Ben Chapman reprised his role as the Gill- Man for the program. " Creature from the Black Lagoon" generated two sequels:" Revenge of the Creature"( 1955), which was also filmed and released in 3D in hopes of reviving the format, and" The Creature Walks Among Us"( 1956), filmed in 2D. The Creature, also known as the Gill- Man, is usually counted among the classic Universal Monsters. <SEP> Theodorus Maurita Frenkel (14 July 1871 – 20 September 1956) was a Dutch film director, actor and screenwriter of the silent era. He worked in Britain under the name Theo Bouwmeester, using the surname of his renowned mother and uncle (both accomplished actors), before working in Germany in 1913 and 1914 and then returning to the Netherlands, a neutral country, before World War I. He directed 214 films between 1908 and 1928. He also appeared in 21 films between 1911 and 1948. His nephew Theo Frenkel Jr. (1893–1955) was a film actor. <SEP> The Creature Walks Among Us is a 1956 American monster horror film and the third and final installment of the" Creature from the Black Lagoon" series from Universal Pictures, following the previous year's" Revenge of the Creature". The film was directed by John Sherwood, the long- time Universal- International assistant director, in his directorial debut. Jack Arnold, who had directed the first two films in the series, had moved on to" A -list" films, and felt he had no more to contribute to the horror genre. He suggested that his assistant director, Sherwood, could move up to full director, which partly affected Universal's decision to allow him to direct the film. " The Creature Walks Among Us" starred Jeff Morrow, Rex Reason, and Leigh Snowden, and, like the original" Creature from the Black Lagoon", had music composed by Henry Mancini, who at the time was under contract with Universal.
