In order of merit:
1.Robinson Crusoe on Mars (1964) ***
2.The War of the Worlds (1953) ***
3.Treasure Island (1950) ***
4.The Naked Jungle (1954) ***
5.Action in the North Atlantic (1943) (uncredited) ***
6.Captain Sindbad (1963) **1/2
7.From the Earth to the Moon (1958) **
8.The Power (1968) **
I also have THE BOSS (1956) on VHS and, from the rest of his films, I wouldn't mind watching the following:
Conquest of Space (1955)
Long John Silver (1954)
His Majesty O'Keefe (1954)
I Walk Alone (1948)
Rookery Nook (1930) - a classic British comedy which is rarely, if ever, shown nowadays!
