Kicking off our next series "Mid-Century Macabre" - horror movies from the 1950s/60s is a film with a long-lasting legacy and surprising back story, "Creature from the Black Lagoon" (1954). This week is all about the creatures creator, Milicent Patrick, whose biography exists within the pages of the book "The Lady from the Black Lagoon" by Mallory O'Meara.
DIVE IN with me and we will look at the culture impact of the film, its relationship to other monster movies, and how the film came to be.
