4K UHD Review - Reptilicus
January 21, 2025
Kaiju fever reaches Denmark in 1961's "Reptilicus," with producer/co-director/co-writer Sidney Pink trying to participate in a moviemaking trend while giving the feature its own distinct location for mass destruction. It's science vs. military in the effort, with a creature caught in the ways of evolution revived by the curious, allowing it to rampage once again. And this citywide violence is fairly strange, combining puppetry, animation, and human chaos in a mostly conversational endeavor that's not attentive to a gripping pace. However, there's an enjoyable roughness to the picture, with the production working to deliver big monster mayhem on a small budget, pulling together all the resources it can find to sell large-scale disaster.
