Came across this site last week hunting for films with my brother, this has a rich treasure trove of rare films. Certain films from the 1970s we couldn't get on YouTube or they were too old for streaming platforms like Netflix and Amazon. My brother found one of the classic Sam Peckinpah films, Bring me the head of Alfredo Garcia, which I think must've influenced the likes of Quentin Tarantino. Old war films like the Blue Max, other curiosities like the Brotherhood of the Bell.
I used it on Sunday night as I like my monster flicks so I managed to locate the 1962 film Gorgo, about a Godzilla type beast that appears near an Irish fictional island and is captured by these entrepreneurs / business men and brought to London, where the mother of said beast comes and destroys the Island and London to find its kid. More a laugh than anything looking at this dated curiosity, but could never find it on YouTube apart from trailers, so an interesting site if you are looking for movie curiosities.
