Creature Feature: 50 Years of the Gill-Man (2004)
A great retrospective on the The Creature from the Black Lagoon.

This is the real deal, the definitive documentary on The Creature from the Black Lagoon. It spans the entire history of the film including the woman who originally designed the creature right up to todays fan's. Included are interviews with Ben Chapman himself as well as actor Dan Robuck and artist Frank Dietz among others. I enjoyed the part focusing on conventions as well as the super collectors. Overall it is well written, well edited and truly done by people who have a love for the subject and did extensive research. I saw it for the first time at a Classic Film Festival, the Monster Bash in June 2005 and it exceeded my expectations. Highly recommended.
