"The Beasts Shall Inherit the Earth for the excellently made props in the form of creatures that appear in the film from time to time to drive out the populace and take over for themselves. Many times these props look genuinely alive" PSA Journal, Sept. 1966, 36.

"A rather thorough glimpse of the little town of Salzburg, Austria, is given to us in this well constructed little film. We find music, distinctive dress, churches, parks, and people. The narrator and the sound track go a long way towards amplifying the mood that is created by the visuals" PSA Journal, Sept. 1966, 36.
"The Wayward Mink. It is hard to believe, but the plot in this film is exactly the same as in The Boomerang, made by filmers in Montreal. Were it a simple, everyday plot, the coincidence would not be so remarkable, but these two filming groups are over 3000 miles apart. In the Mink as in the Boomerang, a wayward wife accepts a gift from her lover, only this time it is a mink stole instead of Boomerang's necklace. Again, the wife wonders how she can get her husband to "find" it and, she hopes, present it to her. And, to top it all off, what eventually happens to the wayward mink also happens to the necklace. Though the plots are identical, the treatments are entirely different" PSA Journal, Sept. 1966, 36.
"Stop the Projector, I Want To Get Off features James Weatherburn as the bumbling projectionist who is trying to learn how to run one of the fool contraptions. His attempts are not quite all-out comedy, yet his antics are amusing, and anyone who remembers the day he first tried to run one of these complicated machines will be amused at someone else's interpretation of what the sensation is like" PSA Journal, Sept. 1966, 35.
"Pioneers' Progess begins with the land rush into Oklahoma territory almost a century ago, then shows the result of this stampede and the progress that Oklahoma has enjoyed in the intervening years" PSA Journal, Sept. 1966, 35.

"Once a Gentleman. When businessman Jones starts home he notes a damsel in distress on the street and offers to fix her flat tire. After a few drinks-in-her apartment later, he receives a letter demanding $1000 or his wife will be told of what is going on. But the blackmailer didn't count on Jones' deductive powers to find out just what has been going on. The film also won the MPD Club Film Award" PSA Journal, Sept. 1966, 35.
"Narraburra is a slick piece of drama telling of the misfortune encountered by a prospector in the wilds of Australia who is thrown from his horse and breaks his leg. While his friends go for aid, a colony of meat ants find him and he knows that in a short while they will eat his flesh until he dies. How he keeps the ants from achieving their objective provides good cinema fare" PSA Journal, Sept. 1966, 35.
