DRIVE-IN SATURDAY
If youve, always wanted to see Ida Lupino get sucked by a giant earthworm, scarf up The Food Of The Gods. This screen adaptation of an H .G. Wells novel about nature gone berserk and overgrown, could have been a genuine choker; instead its pretty tough to swallow.

If youve, always wanted to see Ida Lupino get sucked by a giant earthworm, scarf up The Food Of The Gods. This screen adaptation of an H .G.
Wells novel about nature gone berserk and overgrown, could have been a genuine choker; instead its pretty tough to swallow. In fact, it eats it.
Those orally-fixated gags out of the way, lets talk about the movies good points. As directed by special effects veteran Bert I. Gordon, it has a nice sense of atmospheric isolation, the kind once found in 1950s B films set at the North Pole or at the bottom of the ocean. Gods takes place on a remote island in the Pacific Northwest where the chief entertainmennseems to be watching eight foot chickens bite peoples heads off. Frank Perdue is gonna lpve it. >
