GIANT FROM THE UNKNOWN (1958) - 1080p HD - Classic 50's Schlock - TOP QUALITY

[@IanBeresford-m9x]

I love watching classic movies like this one and many more like this one

[@RussellBauwens]

A fun, old movie to watch, pretty well-made and a good way to spend some time watching. Thank you for sharing..

[@61countdown]

Reminds me of the days spent in the mountains when I was younger. Watching this movie you can almost smell the pine needles on the ground roasting in the hot sun. Or get a whiff of the occasional fresh breeze coming through the trees. Memories of Banff and Jasper parks in Alberta and growing up on the west coast.

[@venetiaanortrup8514]

This was filmed at big bear Calif In the San berdino Forest

[@papa606]

It was enjoyable, 67 years old, and better than the junk they make today. Real actors 💖💖💖

[@MikeSchlesinger]

Buddy Baer for instance!

[@Del-Canada]

For this low-budget production, the make-up was created and applied to Buddy Baer by Jack P. Pierce. Pierce was one of Hollywood's legendary make-up artists. He had been the head of Universal's make-up department during the 1930s and 1940s and is best remembered for creating the special make-ups for Universal's classic horror productions.

[@JoanneSag]

I enjoyed this movie, thank you very much.

Sheriff Parker's car is a 1958 Plymouth.

Found this channel just in time for a great fri.nite to stay in cool from the heat.ty

[@marktomasko7863]

Its amazing the difference between this class of movies and the B-grade silly movies made today with actors who cant act worth a whit. Its entirely enjoyable to just sit back and watch a movie like this😊.

[@marcw6230]

No commercials every 5 min yet either.

[@rajendranramasamythevar1813]

Not easy to talk and not easy to act ok, all did very fine in acting.

[@antiquesconsultancy]

This movie belongs to C-grade. Much better thought then so many others,

Pretty good creature feature for a Saturday afternoon.

[@phil2u48]

Oliver Blake, the café owner, was a respected stage actor and acting coach. He’s very convincing in this silly movie.

You're right. I live there. The lodge hasn't been touched for years. I think it's beyond repair. And I hope it stays that way. As long as it keeps standing it's cool just the way it is.

[@heru-deshet359]

I love Horror/Sci Fi movies up until 1965. After that, the acting and scripts became nauseating.

HILARIOUS, The Monster/ CONQUESTIDOIR? seems to be in love. 500 hundred years of Cellibicy would make me look worse than him.

[@junbug4997]

I like when Ann saw the giant see ran into him and then stood there and just screamed.

[@rb2712]

Yes. Me too

[@isotopefeeney]

"Giant From The Unknown" I don't mind a giant now and then . . . but I at least wanna know where they're from!

[@mugwugthemagnificful]

So, if Vargus was in suspended animation until halfway through the movie, who was doing the livestock mutilations and murders in the beginning? Indian Joe, Bigfoot? The behavior fits sasquatch, and the name Devil's Crag sound eerily similar to place names like Skookum Valley, roughly strong or monster valley, a Bigfoot hotspot. Also, a taboo area.

[@robertstewart9658]

That bothered me too even at the tender age of eight.

[@spencerbarnett8618]

Sally played in two other SFI movie's ed played in a few morris played in a lot great movie and actor's

[@WarrenBridges-um5cg]

Ed was in "Earth vs The Spider" Morris has been in everything but a bath.

the guy and girl were husband and wife in Earth vs the Spider

[@charlottewhyte9804]

is that right?

[@mfmayes]

@@charlottewhyte9804 Yes , I watched it again, and it was them. the guy who played the school teacher is the same actor who plays Mister Brooks. the lady who played Janet is the same actress who played his wife in Earth VS the spider

[@kimpaff5443]

Another great movie too

[@mfmayes]

@@kimpaff5443 i love to see that movie here

And the Old Guy was her father (the General) who was taken by the hard hats with no hands.

[@whereisyourfaith1454]

Wait. He chopped off his handcuffs w/the hatchet, but then later asked the sheriff for the key? Did I miss something? Love this stuff. Was around back then when those cars were parked along the streets.

[@michaeldez]

Morris Ankrum is in this movie he was also in Invaders from Mars 1953, Rocketship X-M 1950, Earth vs the flying saucers 1956 and Half Human U.S. 1958 version which came out the same year as this movie. He is 60 or 59 or 58 in both of this films

[@carlozabbia1157]

And when he isn't fighting aliens and monsters, he's a judge on "Perry Mason."

[@gretchenhaas-bethell8873]

Don't forget Ankrum's appearance in "Destination Moon." What a great career he had!

[@61countdown]

Hah! I thought I recognized him! He was a great actor. 😊

[@UncleDavesKitchen]

I didn't realize how short Bob Steele was. Ed Kemmer from Space Patrol on TV

[@jacksugden8190]

It didn’t explain the cattle and other animal mutilations, before the giant rose from the earth.

[@rb2712]

Yes there werw several problems with the story line. At least several times I got a good laugh from the script.

[@jacksugden8190]

@@rb2712 Think I’ll watch it again, as amusing and stimulating, in many ways creative and thought provoking.

[@cx3268]

Like tese oldies, at the time that can be scary. Today many things in such movies are sometimes funny.

[@charlottewhyte9804]

yeap

[@nassauguy48]

Actually, the slow and stealthy movements of the monsters or villains, coupled with the menacing sounding music, often inflict more fear than the fast moving and high tech effects of today's movies.

[@teejay3272]

I live where most of this was shot. 6,900 feet, one store, no giants and about 350 full time residents. And fighting any kind of growth as hard as possible. Places like Fawnskin need to exist.

[@simpleman5688]

Cheers 🍻

Guy rolls into town with his daughter . Stranger approaches and tells em police chief thinks he is a murderer . Sure you can take me and my daughter out for a steak dinner.

[@fwdixon04]

OK - riddle me this: since the giant wasn't awoken until half way thru the film, what was doing all the killing at the start?

[@mentalmodeled]

Climate Change.

[@moepanetta9028]

I wonder if Morris ankrum got around to those tent poles?

[@randyacuna5643]

And buddy bear jr. , the son played Jethro on the Beverly hillbillies.

[@yoelfischel6327]

Max Baer Jr played Jethro, Jacob Buddy Baer was his uncle and fighter, and Max Baer was heavyweight champion.

[@randyacuna5643]

@yoelfischel6327 thank you for the correction.

[@CoolMusicToMyEars]

Quick repair fence over the dam thats more interesting than a old giant 😅

[@AllanGonnella]

We first saw this little treasure at our local kiddie matinee at the Garmar Theater around 1960 when I was 10. We actually threw empty popcorn boxes at the screen to show how we felt about this crummy mess. I have a question. If Vargas, The Diablo Giant, didn't come to life during a freak lightening storm half way through the movie then who was responsible for the bloodthirsty killings of the townsfolks and cattle in the beginning of the move? Just asking! Richard Cunha made some really crummy B-Sci-Fi movies back then. Missile To The Moon, Frankenstein's Daughter and She Demons were pretty crummy but fun to watch. My favorite line in any 50's B-movies was from Frankenstein's Daughter: "Trudy! Do your know who I really am? I'm not just Oliver Frank! I'm really Oliver Frankenstein! OLIVER!!!!????

[@MichaelMcclary-h3l]

Alot of these actors rotate " B" movie to " B" movie. They didn't make much money either.

[@thenorthstars2210]

Turns out he wasn't some 500 year old giant. Just some homeless bum, that enjoyed sleeping in the dirt. True story!

[@WarrenBridges-um5cg]

...........and that was before they gave him the part in the movie.

[@adrinathegreat3095]

Back in the old days get arrested for murder 5 minutes later convince the law it wasn't you and then you end up leading the hunt for a giant that's not really a giant. Case solved except for the murders and mutilations that were happening before the giant came out of suspended animation. I wonder who the town folk were planning on lynching, because it didn't really seem to be the guy who was arrested.. Perhaps it was some coloured guy.. Very odd movie, worth watching just for seeing the hilarious shot of the giant that wasn't a giant falling into a dam

[@loringbush1455]

Did anyone notice that there was no water in those tin cups?

[@jamesmaultsby5588]

During the chase scene how does the sheriff's six shooter fire nine times without a reload?

[@allandavis8201]

I love these old B&W films, crazy storylines and poor special effects and you have a great film 🎥. @ 4:11 the Sheriff threatening “Indian Joe” (if he was indigenous)with another vagrancy charge is comical, the indigenous people threatened with vagrancy in THEIR OWN COUNTRY, filmmakers back then could easily get away with using the indigenous peoples as the fall guy, but in modern films I think there could be a considerable amount of backlash. For a rural community that has the base of its economy in hunting and fishing there isn’t one good shot amongst them, but it’s not as if the target was a mouse or anything, it’s a giant.

[@michaelbabbitt3837]

For one thing, it's a movie. Another thing: Indians didn't own land and had no country. They moved about and many waged war on other tribes. You are imposing your idea of ownership on people who used (exploited) lands but did not own them. They fought for control of an area. The idea of a nation-state, a country, was foreign to them. They. were people-nations but not a country with boundaries as we know them today. They would even set fires to forests to draw out animals, if my memory serves me correctly. You are using the wrong paradigm to defend them. Farmers and ranchers with greater technology and power, defeated nomadic tribes. That is the truth, and in many cases, a very sad truth.

[@allandavis8201]

@@michaelbabbitt3837 typical answer, just because the indigenous people didn’t lay “claim” to land or give it a name does not change the fact that the very people who claim to be civilised decided to claim it for themselves, not for everyone, not for the indigenous and colonisers but just for themselves, and the people who call themselves American. You think that laying claim to land meant that you owned it, you still do, and your argument is always the same, the louder you shout and tell people that you are right the more you think others will believe it, but your wrong, you took the land for yourselves, nothing else mattered and still doesn’t in your mind, America has a very long record of imposing its own will on the world, but only if you can get everyone else to do the hard work first, typical bullies and thieves, and you won’t ever admit you did anything wrong, that’s why you shout so much, it’s the only way to convince yourself that you are in the right, but your not, you are wrong.
