Featured review
A Sam Katzman production too quickly shot
I was impressed by William Castle horror movies, but unfortunetely didn't see them with their unique gimmick screenings. However, I was puzzled when I read his autobiography « Step Right Up! I'm Gonna Scare the Pants Off America: Memoirs of a B-Movie Mogul » (don't miss the chapter on the production of "Rosemary's baby") , he was so imaginative (even if inspired by Hitchcock). That's why I love B movies, they can be so inventive, like Castle's "When strangers marry". But "Uranium Boom" is desperetly slow with lot of conversations, even the fights are badly choreographed. And even when Morgan, Talman and their Indian friend Charlie have their jeep saboted by dishonest competitors, while Charlie saboted their truck at the same time, there was no sequence showing how they repaired their jeep, and no sequence showing the angryness of the crooks when their truck gets out of order, only one general shot of the jeep repaired driving next to the truck, really shot quickly with no interest. Well, the only minor attraction is gorgeous Patricia Medina in profile, and as the trailer says, she is "the girl who set all the Geiger counters clicking". So a very chatty script, speaking about action without showing it. From William Castle from the 50's, I advise "Cave of outlaws".
