Sinks under the weight of its homage.

This lazy effort gets points only for truly loving -- perhaps to a fault -- the cheapo creature flicks of the 1950s.

rotten:
It's a satire without laughs, a parody without punch lines, a careful copy that replicates everything except the original's life.

It's comfy. It's kitschy. There are lovely enticements but also much that is simply put and beautifully, beguilingly silly.

While there's a lot to admire, it all feels like an engaging though needless academic exercise.
