In honor of the 1955 Universal horror classic Revenge of the Creature airing on Svengoolie tonight, I decided to resurrect my Fantastic Photos From Fantasy Films series and share some of my publicity photos from the film. I acquired these photographs from a movie memorabilia shop in Henderson, Nevada several years ago. Sadly, that shop is now out of business.
I don't know if any of these images have been published before? Generally movie studios print out numerous images to promote their movies, yet many of these photos never made it into theater lobbies, newspapers, magazines or books. That being said, this my be the first time that many fans will have seen these.
I plan to keep posting more images out of my movie photo collection in future weeks.
Determined men travel up the Amazon River to capture the legendary Creature from the Black Lagoon (1954). After dynamiting and stunning the fish-man, they transport him to Marineland in Florida to revive, exhibit, and study him. Strongly opposed to captivity and electric cattle prods, he escapes and abducts beautiful scientist Helen Dobson (Lori Nelson). This prompts authorities, led by Professor Clete Ferguson (John Agar), to pursue him. - IMDB
