The Devil's Rain (1975)

Today we return to revisit The Devil's Rain, a spectacular mess of a 70's movie - and one I enjoy seeing over and over. Ernest Borgnine chews the scenery like nobody's business and we also have William Shatner (Star Trek, Kingdom of the Spiders) and Tom Skerrit (Alien). If you look close you can see a cameo, early appearence by John Travolta (Carrie) before he was even a sweathog or disco king. The first three fourths of the film are all about build up and contains some interesting bits; however, the conclusion's melting rain is what you're waiting for. A fun movie.

So, thanks to My Flash Fetish and YouTube, here is the full movie ... The Devil's Rain

Trailer of the Day: The Devil's Rain (1975)

The Devil's Rain (1975)

Continuing our week of 70's horror and following yesterday's William Shatner opus, today we look at The Devil's Rain. Hah, this flick is pure fun and features an early cameo by John Travolta. Ernest Bornine chews up the scenery and Tom Skerritt tries to make sense of it all. It takes a long, long time to get to the title effect, the Devil's Rain; but, once it does, the effects are top notch for the time. Almost every actor gets to ooze and drip all over the place.

This is a gem. Check out the trailer.
