Alrighty so the vote for which film I would live tweet ended in a deadlock between JAWS 3 and CREATURE FROM THE BLACK LAGOON. Coin flip time

And the winner is… CREATURE FROM THE BLACK LAGOON

What's your favourite Universal Horror flick? I got THE WOLF MAN #1, followed by DRACULA

— Tim @ Five Rad Films (@beer_movie) May 23, 2013

Woah, crazy cool start about the birth of the earth. Was not expecting that.

Some pretty dodgy paleontology practices taking place. Dr Alan Grant would not approve.

— Tim @ Five Rad Films (@beer_movie) May 23, 2013

Dialogue has that delightful Universal Horror clunkiness.

— Tim @ Five Rad Films (@beer_movie) May 23, 2013

These Universal Horror films always look bloody incredible. So sharply shot

Old mate about to go scuba diving in a place called the Black Lagoon, a place no one had ever returned from… 5 bucks says this goes badly

The underwater photography is pretty incredible for a film of this vintage #blacklagoon

— Tim @ Five Rad Films (@beer_movie) May 23, 2013

Of all Universal's incredible creature design, this creature may be the coolest of the lot. #blacklagoon

— Tim @ Five Rad Films (@beer_movie) May 23, 2013

Often the women characters in Universal Horror flicks are relatively strong characters. This one, not so much thus far. #blacklagoon

This man in the rubber suit is bringing back memories of the awesomeness that is @josswhedon's CABIN IN THE WOODS #blacklagoon

— Tim @ Five Rad Films (@beer_movie) May 23, 2013

None of the Universal are particularly fast paced, but this one seems slower than most. #blacklagoon

— Tim @ Five Rad Films (@beer_movie) May 23, 2013

Personal bickering between the scientists takes up a bit too much time.Would prefer some more rubber suit man mashings. #blacklagoon

— Tim @ Five Rad Films (@beer_movie) May 23, 2013

the creature design really is something else. Costume looks really great close up. #blacklagoon

— Tim @ Five Rad Films (@beer_movie) May 23, 2013

Those two scientist dudes finally punched on. Bit of a crappy fight though. Good guy via knockout in the first round #blacklagoon

— Tim @ Five Rad Films (@beer_movie) May 23, 2013

In contrast, this underwater fight scene is fantastic. Underwater fight scenes are hard to pull off. Just ask THUNDERBALL #blacklagoon

— Tim @ Five Rad Films (@beer_movie) May 23, 2013

Woah, I thought this film was about to end, but then rubber suit stole the girl. That would be a pretty dark ending #blacklagoon

— Tim @ Five Rad Films (@beer_movie) May 23, 2013

Pretty interesting finish actually #blacklagoon

— Tim @ Five Rad Films (@beer_movie) May 23, 2013

Overall, the film is rightfully iconic, even if it is a touch below the absolute best of the Universal's Horror output #blacklagoon

— Tim @ Five Rad Films (@beer_movie) May 23, 2013

Verdict: Stubby of Reschs #blacklagoon
