Wow, now wasn’t that an interesting movie and it was so awesome to have a black-and-white! I truly truly enjoyed this movie two thumbs up for the dog👍🏼👍🏼 he was a hero. Four stars for the movie.⭐⭐⭐⭐ It was a pretty awesome movie. And thank you for sharing and uploading PizzA flicks.💐👍🏼👍🏼🇨🇦
all these bad comments, dont like it dont watch it someone took the time to set this channel up and I for one thank you
I agree without these channels there is a lot of old movies that we would never get to see.
I wish could do this ! Thank's for ur efforts !
@JONATHAN SUTCLIFFE must be old person typing In capitals!!
I like this channel
Agreed
When I was young all we had were black and white movies like this one.... I enjoy seeing these oldies. Fun to watch.. Thank you for making available again
Color sets weren't really a part of the home until the
mid 60's. Until then it was those rather smallish metal and plastic sets with the rabbit-ear antennas.
We got 7 VHF channels if we were lucky - UHF if you were brave. And knobs galore ! Visits from your TV repair man, - open the back and it was a forest of tubes; tubes you could take to any grocery or drug store to test yourself (that is, - if any of them worked and you could figure-out just 'how' they were supposed to work !)
Those were the days, when station's signed-off and were never 24 hours.
📺 - they didn't even look like this yet !
It was cheaper, and cooler (no extra thousand watt extra bulbs to make the scene brighter), to film in black and white.
1968: NBC announces Living Color (it's sibling was Living Stereo for records).
I love these old films..Thank U for putting on here..Blessings 2 All
Especially when you watch them via one old school way: 16mm film projector at home!
When I bought my first film projector, the seller threw this in for free (he only had Reel 2).
This is actually a pretty good movie. Subtitles or dubbing are your only two choices with foreign films and the dubbing is just fine. Thank you for giving us some variety.
The child's voice was dubbed by a woman. Even Karloff's voice was dubbed.
I remember when I was just married arriving at that very same landing seeing that very same house and we stayed at that very same house in the background. Fortunately we came across no monster, unless my wife thought I was one.
Ha ha ...
Was there a monster in the movie?
Boris Karloff took care of it old boy.
That's cool.
did you do horizontal aerobics/oralextraction in thevhouse
Fantastic actor, Boris K. Great Mafia story with action and suspense ! Worth watching. 👍
Interesting - thank you for posting! I forget that Boris Karloff didn't just do horror movies - so a heads-up to anyone who thinks this might be that! In this, he's actually one of those seemingly minor characters that an entire plot turn hinges on ........
It's a nice look at Ischia in the 50's and any performance by Karloff is good.
I really did enjoy this movie 🎥 and any movie with Mr.K in it is really good
I agree totally.
One more great movie from genius Boris 😀💋💜❣💬💯💟too bad we don't have more like these today😀❣💏✌
Thanks for watching PizzaFLIX. May the Sauce be with you.
Love this channel.I would have rather lived in this time.Today:Everyone is a villain and hardly no one has a chance..Thank you Pizza Flix for this movie.
i am the lizard king i can do anything
Gravmper! DEd River tREE Threer?
I looked at your playlists, you’re a child. You are correct though, that, in this life you can do whatever you want to do. But, know this, that there will be consequences for our words, thoughts and deeds when we are judged on Judgement Day. Stop fooling around and get ready to meet your Creator. You can be saved, if you want to. I hope you choose Jesus Christ as your personal Savior and that you become obedient to Him.
appreciate you and the movie 🍿 have a spectacular night
Awesome movie 🎥.
Excellent!!!
I would of loved to watch this as a kid lol!! thank you!
I used to work with a guy how was from Ischia ! He told me it was a nice place, maybe I'll find out for myself one day!😎
these old films are great.popcorn and a cold beer!
Great movies
Bel film grazie per averlo caricato
"I must congratulate you again. A man like you must succeed, you can accomplish any scheme you work out, because you have absolutely no scruples at all".
Wow! Try to wrap your mind around that".
Thanks again Pizzafix.
Hey, you could say that to Trump!
You might also like this line from "Creature from the Haunted Sea" : "As an American gangster, and gambler, you're above suspicion !"
Although this might have played Italian language theaters in America, it was really only seen in this country when it was dubbed into English and sold to television. When interviewed by good ol' CASTLE OF FRANKENSTEIN magazine we got this exchange-
COF: In 1953 you made another film in Italy-IL MOSTRA DELL'ISOLA-[THE MONSTER OF THE ISLAND]...
BK: Oh, yes. Oh, God.
COF: Can you recall much about this one?
BK: No. I haven't the least idea what it was like. Incredible! Dreadful! No one in the outfit spoke English; I don't speak Italian. Just hopeless.I had a very good time, but that's beside the point.
What do you know an Italian Rin Tin Tin to the rescue! Never thought about it 😍
I didn't know the Italians had their own "Lassie"! That was one smart dog. He found the hideout of the drug syndicate and Fiorella sooner than all the people, though he was limited in what he could do about it.
Thanks for the spoiler comment
That's a very faithful dog!
"We don't need that kind of trouble, at least not right now." When exactly is a good time to have that kind of trouble?
Same here we had three channels via a 30 ft pole and antenna our dad put up good memories
The great Karloff !!
Absolutely
👍
once at Monsterpalooza in Burbank my brother and his wife and I were waiting for a table and the waitress asked us 'Karloff, table for three?', as Carla his daughter was also waiting with two others as well, it was terribly thrilling
Good film 🎥
Yes, this is a badly dubbed movie, with even Karloff's voice being dubbed (despite that he spoke his lines in English while filming). From what I've read (forget where) that the only reason Karloff took this role was the filming location. Of course, the 'monster' in this film is Karloff's role as a drug lord.
stereoplayers, hahaha 😂
still a good movie
The first time I encountered this film, was my first 16mm film projector purchase. The seller had reel 2 of 2, and he threw it in for free.
I will add, too, that that is a faithful dog.
True love often & usually comes in fur, #stereoplayers
An excellent performance by Shirley wannabe Temple
An interesting if forgotten pic.
The dubbed dialog in English is unexpectedly good. I wonder how the Italian version was. Though the plot has some holes, it is enjoyable.
Not such a bad movie, considering the price.
I'd love to have a private cave boat dock like at 49:00 !
Thankfully her wings hadn’t developed yet 😂👍
1:20 - ha I did that too. I could taught that course!!!!
Hi, thanks for the many films. Would you be able to upload The Black Room 1935 and/or The Mask of Fu Manchu? I can't find these anywhere. TIA!
We don't have streaming rights at the moment for either of the Karloff films you are seeking. Thanks for watching... PFG
MST3K did 'The Castle of Fu Manchu'........ can download
WOW! I never watched this, but: nice erection cover up, bondage boris!
Thanks PizzaFlix
De mi plaser!!! ❣️😁
I've never seen this movie, and I'm not even two minutes into it...But I'm wondering about the shape of the heads in the two characters in the first scene...I don't remember hair ever looking like that, and yes I was living then...😕
EDIT my comment below. I MEANT TO SAY.
WOW, NOW THAT WAS AN INTERESTING MOVIE AND IT WAS SO AWESOME. DO I HAVE IT IN BLACK-AND-WHITE?💙💙💙
I want to see some Mafia gun play in this movie. It's calm as a scout camping trip.
...Tenderfoot, second class, first class, Star, Life Eagle
The DOG WAS THE HERO. There no greater loyalty than a Dog. !!!!!!
I can't stand dogs
@@carycoller3140 my sympathy for your emptiness
At 15:51 into this beauty, " Iceberg !! Dead ahead !! "
Italian women were singu-
larly beautiful. I've had a crush on them all since I was a small child.
My favorite is Sophia Loren 💕.
"Never date an Italian girl. They're all crazy, just like their mothers"
Boris Karloff didn't want to waste his time memorizing a script so he just moved his lips & they got a guy to dub the words in later. Karloff got a free trip to Italy & some money for this turkey and he made extra money making live performances as the Frankenstein monster with a plastic mask on doing his trademarked "Errrrhrrr" walking around like a stiff with his hands in front of him then choking some Italian extras.
Absolutely love B.K......
I enjoy bad movies and this was certainly that. I like Karloff, but the dog was far & away the best actor.
And, very faithful, too😁
the initial scene sounds like they are reading right off a page in a high school english class.
Dude goes undercover to capture smugglers and his clueless wife shows up with the annoying child and wonders why he has to go to work rather than go sightseeing! Who wrote this 🤣🤣🤣🤣?
Yeah, the Lt. didn't factor his domiineering wife's 'butting-in' with her short-stringed control tactics
You can't beat an old dubbed Italian film with Boris in. I will watch anything though. Still it was very enjoyable but a few disgruntled types might have a whinge because there was no monster. I don't know how you can moan about the qualities of an Italian b movie that is free on youtube. Thanks for the upload I would never have seen this if you hadn't posted it.
No monster? Glad I checked the comments half way through the film.
That little girl's voice makes my ears bleed! And Karloff! He must've wanted a free trip to Italy...
My thoughts exactly with the 'VOICE'. I had to open a bottle of wine while viewing.
Yvonne Russ Bell lol
@@yvonnerussbell9528 haha Yvonne that's gold!
Hmmmm a monster is afoot dear Watson 🧐🤔
That was downright HORRIBLE.
Was the dog shot at the end, cause he looked as if was limping off the boat.
Just hope I'm wrong cause it would be a sad 😥 ending.
The dog knew too much and the Genoa crew was worried he would flip and turn informant. They had to try to whack him. Badabing bada boom.
Cool movie Thank you but I can't stand thrillers with dogs and kids.
Didn't know Karloff spoke French .
OR that Kubrick made a black and white film. Or is it , filme ??
And this movie came up as a horror movie? Yeah right.
MONSTER? What monster. One of Karloff's worse.
Data of the movie wikipedia:

She looks like Lisa Raye.
I said the same thing!😆
OMG.....the voice dubbers at the beginning sound like they simply had the script in their hands reading for the first time as badly as it is rendered.
You cannot dub Karloff's voice and get away with it. Sorry.
I know. Karloff voice is perfect for any movie. Just seeing him and hearing another voice is so very wrong. And the little girl sounds like she inhaled helium
The girl child's voice was dubbed by a woman.
Did anyone on the island think it odd that a civilian on vacation got a ride on the local naval craft? Or is that common practice? And this guy at the club suggests "White Horse" as an alternate whiskey? Can you be any more obvious! He's talking about heroin. But maybe in 1954 the "narcotic lingo" was not that well known as it is today.
I was born in 54 now I am 66 L o L god bless you all have a great night
I remember reading about your birth. I was in the sixth grade then. : )
30 minutes in and no monsters...
14:05 this is what saved Italian tourism in the decade after WW2 😉.
Red skeleton, Lawrence Welk. Cisco kid yeah
Hey back then they were telling where to cop the good drugs. Damn Hollywood!!
I’m used to seeing Fred & Ginger dance. That dance was 10 shades of LAME!! lol I guess back then the lady leg was enough to stun the crowd.
Spoiler alert: There is no monster in The Island Monster. The fifties version of clickbait.
The monster might be Boris Karloff since his character tried to kidnap that Fiorella kid.
Karloff plays a drug lord.
The x-rated version of this movie had a monster in it.
With maybe the exception of Karloff, fabulously bad acting, with aweful stiff poorly written brass with string theme music... but the band in the café wasn't too bad. Entirely predictable ending with the hero dog (who was even better then Karloff. Great fun !
Great Film - thank you. Again, a nosey stupid policeman's wife screws things up. When will they learn to keep their noses out?
Admittedly, without this, quite a lot of the plot would have been lost.
Stuart Forsyth Her child was kidnapped, what do you expect?
odd, she puts her skirt on over her head rather than stepping into it and pulling it up. at 27 minutes.
Habit.
@@GoldandAppel
Nun?
To dub Karloff voice? They should’ve hired him. Karloff without that voice of his is wrong. And the little girls dubbing sounds like someone inhaled too much helium. I’m not insulting the one that uploaded this movie, it made me laugh. This is on the ones who made the movie, who are most likely long gone.
The child's voice was dubbed by a woman.
The voice that they've used to dub the little girl is HORRIBLE!! Watch this scene.... 36:53 .
Boris Karloff made some really shity movies courses best movie was Frankenstein who played the monster I haven't seen him in anything that I like since then except that one with Peter Lorre and Vincent Price
you might try "Bed;am" (1946)
I'm not trying to be a jerk, I realize that English isn't your first language. You've written, "...made some really shity (shitty) movies courses best movie was Frankenstein..." It's not "courses best movie". It's, "Of course his best movie is..." I read your sentence and realized that it sounds quite similar.
is this a comedy? it's making me laugh like i'm stoned on weed. but i'm not sure it's supposed to do that.
😩 " ZZZZZZZ!..... What ' monster ' ? After the first 15 minutes, I lost interest. "
Where MEN R the island
Karloff musta been starving to agree to this garbage!
Was that kid dubbed by an adult actor? the voice actor was terrible.
The dubbed acting in this is so atrocious that it should be a cult classic for that alone. Even Boris Karloff's self-dubbed lines are bad. He sounds like he recorded all his dialogue in his study late one night, having to keep his voice low and nearly whispering so he didn't wake up the rest of the house. Of course his recorded dialogue doesn't line up with his lip movement in the movie. It's all so bad it's almost good.
In real life police officers do not have such stupid wives.
They don't?
@@guymorris6596 No, I've met them.
This has to be the worst Karloff movie I have ever seen. He doesn't even join the movie until 40 minutes in (except for a couple of minutes early on.) No 'monster' on Monster Island and what has to be the most annoying child voice ever recorded.
You haven't seen Voodoo Island then
Boris Karloff was in quite a bit of stinkers too: I was shocked at how bad Bedlam & Isle of the Dead were. Zzzzz! I don't know which was the most effective insomnia terminator. Usually, I can watch him but these two are the worst for me cos he's not even remotely cute in those. Not even "monster cute". That wig. The accent! The curly hair. The sullen attitude and long face in IOTD. I just couldn't. Sorry if you like those.
Correction, #GaryBoyd : he already has a 'fight bite' @38
Old classic science fiction movies
Let’s go Brandon
Boris Karloff must have wanted some extra cash for him to make this clunker. The amateurish acting, poor dubbing, overly dramatic film score, and ridiculous storyline certainly contributed. The only saving grace, Boris Karloff's appearance even though his voice was dubbed.
Debra Bolton, I agree because ever "BORIS" are stupid at all... Lol...
1:22:02
The end of the film. Thanks!
It is painful to watch that idiot fictitious character. The foolish woman had no business going there. What a terrible movie; very badly written.
Thanks your guys for all bad comments of this movie. So I am not will spend my time watching that... Thanks very much.... 👋 😘
You're missing out on an interesting flick.
The naked hotel maids are worth the price of the ticket.
really bad dubbing
Love the propaganda
bad script... bad actors...
Horrible.
