Bally - 1993

          Creature from the Black Lagoon (CFTBL) is a classic Bally game from 1993, with a drive-in-movie theme based on the cult 50's movie of the same name.  The drive in theme is captured flawlessly using classic 50's tunes (including 'Rock Around The Clock').  Visit the snack bar for a hot dog or popcorn and try to sneak a kiss from your date.  The main feature at the drive in is the Creature from the Black Lagoon which the game plays some classic scenes from the film in 'dot-mation'.  Your goal if to find the Creature and Rescue the Girl in one of the most challenging multi-ball modes ever.  Once multi-ball begins,  the creature appears under the playfield in pinball's firsts, a moving hologram.

         The photos shown below are of a recent CFTBL we have recently restored and are typical of what your game will look like upon completion.  

Beautiful artwork on  back glass and speaker panel

 

Two huge main ramps create great flow

 

Most creature holograms tend to get blue from age but not this one

 

One of the best pins to play in the dark with its LED lit ramps

 

Can you find the Creature and save the girl during multi-ball?
