Question:
Which Creature actor do you like best?
Option 1: Ben Chapman
votes: 6
Option 2: Ricou Browning
votes: 3
If you're like me you love them both and they both add sooooooo! much to the character, but I thought it would be fun to see who people pick?
I know it's hard :o ??? :-[ But it could be fun :P
As people it has to be a tie-both men were/ are wonderful human beings. As for performance as the creature, I'd have to give it to Ricou-his swimming style was graceful and believable, making the Creature a real monster! Ben was forced to lumber a bit as the Creature out of his element on land. On the other hand, Ben got to whack around Whit Bissel a lot ;D (nothing against Whit, he was terrific too!)
I'm not real sure which was the taller, but the Creech needs to be a big fellow.
For many many years, I thought Rico Browning did all of the creature work, so I've always associated it with him.

I believe Mr. Chapman was around 6' 5".
I like Ben Chapman, but Ricou Browning was more skilled in the water.
This is one poll I have to skip, I Loved both their performances. Creature swiming under water, or Creature walking on land, while I'm watching the movie all I see is the Creature. Both actors performed exceptionally well, and pulled me into the movie and out of reality.
Well whoever played the Creature he was certainly a handsome fellow alright:

Me too!
i think so..
Many majority of few in the last yearses, I think that the British Rico poet did an owner work, consequently I always unite it with him.
