The Horror at 37,000 Feet (1973)

I love this movie so much

Just what I expected

Fantastic!

Don't listen to the negative reviews

I really was hoping for better with this cast and the idea behind this film but I found it somewhat disappointing - mainly some of the characters that ruined this movie. 3 female passengers that are witchy with a capital "B". Two that are "witchy" wives and one zealous religious nut - I really wanted to slap all 3 of them. There is also one really screwed up crazy woman, one irritating child and one freaking clownish cowboy. The rest of the characters are okay enough it's just the 6 I mentioned that got on my nerves. (Notice I said the characters NOT the actors themselves).The story is good enough for a film of this type but I wasn't crazy about the pea-soup coming out of the baby doll... that was just dumb.5/10

A familiar cast of TV veterans star in this entertaining, reasonably effective TV movie that stars Roy Thinnes("The Invaders") as an architect transporting an old Abbey altar on an airplane from London to L.A. that comes to demonic life, threatening all aboard, like William Shatner("Star Trek") as a former priest called back into action to defeat the evil, and Chuck Conners("The Rifleman") as the pilot. Buddy Ebsen("Barnaby Jones") and Russell Johnson("Gilligan's Island") costar.Interesting coincidences here: both Shatner and Johnson starred together on an excellent episode of "Thriller" called 'The Hungry Glass', and Shatner also memorably appeared on "The Twilight Zone" as a similarly tormented man('Nightmare At 20,000 Feet') Both Shatner and Conners would later costar in spoof "Airplane II: The Sequel" Just out on DVD, and worth a look.

you know it is going to be a really cheesy movie that is really bad, but at the same time it is also going to be fun to watch in the so bad it is good kind of way. I saw this movie a couple of times, but it has been a very long time since I last saw the movie so I only remember bits and pieces of this film, but what I do tend to remember is a rather bad movie, with a bad plot (a bit of brick is somehow haunted, bad acting (actors and actresses collecting a paycheck) and a very forgettable ending as I have no recollection of it at all. I do remember them trying to sacrifice a doll in a woman's stead, the plane somehow being stuck in the air as its fuel supply continued to dwindle and William Shatner being William Shatner. The rest of the movie is inconsequential as there are no scares to be had, but then what does one expect from a made for television movie that has a runtime of 73 minutes so they can take time off for commercials and such. If you can find it though it is good for some laughs.

A waspish couple are flying to America with an altar from a convent. Travelling with them is a typical cross section of the public; a lone little girl, a woman obsessed with her dog, a black doctor in a bowler hat, a millionaire, a flirty cowboy and a model. Best of all though there's a priest who has lost his faith (Shatner!) and what seems to be his girlfriend.Not long into the flight some moss gets loose from the hold, you see that altar was sealing up some kind of evil spirit thing that looks like bubbling blob moss.When things start going wrong the passengers take about 30 seconds to decide that they should probably just offer the kid as a sacrifice, can the power of Shatner help them or will he just sit getting drunk through the entire movie while making cryptic comments about God? Although this film is pure hokum and the effects are seriously quite awful it's got a certain charm. Much like the plane though you may encounter some serious drag in the last half an hour or so.
