Matango (1963) trailer

Also know as "Island of the Mushroom People" or "Attack of the Mushroom People" this movie just absolutely fascinated me as a child. It was common fodder for a Saturday afternoon program called "Creature Double Feature" and I always considered myself lucky when I caught yet another airing of it.

Having just bought a new DVD/VCR combo unit I now know what I am going to christen it with once I locate a copy through inter-library-loan!

Ah, yes, the good old mushroom people! I think I saw this at least 50 times on Creature Double Feature. Say, what do children do on Saturday afternoons anymore?

Probably soemthing educational and closely monitered. They will never know the joy of discovering such fine cinema on their own!
