The original is still surreal and disturbing, owing much to the fact that the actors in Corman's 1957 version ( all who were stage- trained) play it absolutely straight w/ no whiff of CAMP. The same can't be said for any of the NOT OF THIS EARTH remakes.
Pour cette séquence d'introduction, Jim Wynorski dut choisir entre deux options : soit un fond noir (ou champ d'étoiles) soit un pot-pourri des films de Corman. Il choisit la seconde opt pour mieux satisfaire son public tout en introduisant une atmosphère fantastique.
Basically, Wynorski had to choose between a black screen (or starfield), or a montage of Roger Corman's movies. He chose the second opt to please the audience and to put a "fantastic" atmosphere
Where did you acquire this? Wasn't this on double bill with Crab Monsters back in the day? I was under the impression that it never mad its way to DVD or video? Unless you were lucky enough to tape an old TV showing.
I remember watching one of her pornos back in the 80's at a bachelor party.........Traci was only 16 but she was sucking Peter North's cock like a pro! The girl was born with talent.......
Too bad she gave up on the porn biz........she had a killer natural body and a real knack for hot sex acts.

The original version of "Not Of This Earth" is so much better than any of the sequels that it almost defies description.

Also, the 1988 movie features two full scenes from Hollywood Boulevard (1976) and Humanoids from the Deep (1980).

Still the best version of all three versions, scared the piss out of me as a kid, Corman knew how to do a lot with a little.

What movies are the clips that start at 3:33 and 4:03 from?

I think Forbidden World and Galaxy of Terror. The worm rape is definitely Galaxy of Terror.

The best part of the 1988 movie is the opening credits.

Not of this Earth, un de mes films préférés. Le meilleur film de Corman, sûr.

Check out Sinister Cinema. They have this 1957 gem on both VHS and DVD. The best movie Roger Corman ever directed ;still effective today.
