It Conquered Hollywood! is a compelling dive into the world of American International Pictures, where you really get a feel for the hustle and energy of the 50s and 60s B-movie scene. Eamon Harrington does a solid job of weaving together interviews and archival footage, creating a nostalgic atmosphere that brings back that time when AIP was making waves with low-budget films. Arkoff and Nicholson’s journey is fascinating; they took risks that paid off, creating a unique blend of horror, sci-fi, and teen films. The pacing is brisk, keeping your interest without losing depth. Plus, it’s interesting to see how they used practical effects in ways that, frankly, sometimes outshine today’s CGI. A real treat for collectors who appreciate the art of indie filmmaking.
