Derrick Gibbons An old-fashioned movie made with new-fashioned finesse.

Sarita Rafferty There are moments that feel comical, some horrific, and some downright inspiring but the tonal shifts hardly matter as the end results come to a film that's perfect for this time.

skinner-c Uniquely unlike the first two Creature films, this one is set apart in its own gloom. While it seemed to have been the lowest graded version of the three, I find it in some ways the best. As the second and final "remake," it had to branch out somewhat, and I believe it did so with merit and credibility.Shadowed with the gloomy backdrop of Dr. Barton's troubled marriage, his paranoia about his wife's flirtation with the deck-hand while our scary title character stalks around unhappily as the post-op air-breathing humanoid, this final effort includes a psychological / philosophical leaning that sets it apartBeyond this, the plastic surgery component of the screenplay further differentiates it, as it morphs into a more modern-day Frankenstein take. Noteworthy as an ending is the death of Barton at the hands of his morphed creature, followed by "Blackie's" own suicide.Perhaps lost now without much notice, the film is still a gem. When you have forgotten hundreds of movies you saw after 1956, while remembering ones like this, perhaps that says something.

Uriah43 Intent upon capturing the Creature for research, "Dr. William Barton" (Jeff Morrow) leads an expedition to the Everglades where it had been last seen. With Dr. Barton is his wife, "Marcia Barton" (Leigh Snowden), "Dr. Thomas Morgan" (Rex Reason), "Jed Grant" (Gregg Palmer) along with several other doctors and crewmen. Although Dr. Morgan wants to conduct honest research on the creature, Jed Grant wants to kill it and wants Marcia as well. Meanwhile, Dr. Barton has his own personal agenda and also harbors a deep jealousy regarding anyone who comes near his wife. In any case, nobody in the expedition fully understands that the Creature might be more dangerous than they realize. Now, as far as this film is concerned I must say that it was slightly better than the second movie ("Revenge of the Creature"). Part of the reason for this was that there wasn't as much "dead time" in this one as there was in the second movie. Likewise, having an attractive actress like Leigh Snowden certainly didn't hurt. Be that as it may, I didn't think this film was quite as good as the first movie ("The Creature") of the trilogy and I have rated it accordingly. Average.

tamstrat This is the third & final rendering of the tale of the Gill Man. Seems a group of scientists head to the Florida Everglades to locate, capture and study the creature. He is captured and nearly killed when he catches on fire. He is left without gills but has lungs (who knew) and he is transported to San Francisco why there? Then he is penned up with animals and dressed in human clothing????? All the while the scientist played by Jeff Morrow, is losing his grip on reality due to jealousy over his young, sexy but faithful wife whom all the other male scientists are interested in. A murder occurs, sending the creature into a murderous rampage.This is a different theme than the previous two outings, but the acting is good and the plot kept my attention.

Hot 888 Mama It's pretty easy to see why there was not a 4th CREATURE movie in 1957 after watching this Edsel of a misfire from 1956. Lame-brained screenwriter Arthur Ross apparently thought that if having one or two scientific doctors spouting pseudojargon, as in the first couple of CREATURE installments, was grudgingly accepted by the movie audiences of the day, putting four docs in the same flick would have film-goers rolling gaga in the aisles, beside themselves. Unfortunately, from the first stand-up comedy team-like "Hello doctor," "Doctor," "Morning, Doctor, "Same to you, Doctor," endless round of introductions, this wordy sequel bogs down whenever a character opens their mouth. Apparently realizing that this doctor-doctor bit could take the film only so far, Ross fills the rest of the script with the psychobabble of the day. First Gill Man's psyche is analyzed ad nauseum, then Dr. Barton's. After going back and forth between these two sets of increasingly boring case studies, the final climactic portion of the film (set in California, for some implausible reason) tries to make a tortured analogy between Gill Man and Barton. Fearing that the movie-goers of his day were dumber than posts, Ross finally has Barton spell this out two or three times HIMSELF (actor Leigh Snowden barely keeps a straight face). The whole point of the subconscious is that you're not aware of it, but this is too subtle for Ross to grasp. Instead of being thrilled by the CREATURE wrecking more havoc, along the lines of the preceding films, we're left with a third-rate psychological yak-fest. Way to ruin a good thing, dude!
