Gorgon-Zola



When projected, this flick is uneasy
It's defective and sickly and queasy
The show that's depicted
Is boa-constricted
The effect doesn't click, 'cause it's cheesy.

The Gorgon (Terence Fisher; 1964) is an effective updating of the Greek myth as Hammer horror film, but the sfx are its weakest link. Prudence Hyman plays the Gorgon, though Barbara Shelley plays her human form.
