Old monster flicks didn't always show the monster out-right -- just something that hauled itself along the ground (usually through the bushes). Shadow and suspense were the key elements.
They really talk like that in those days???? Or is this, jazz, (I'm trying to get into the lingo,) is this jazz, like just hip for the movies. What a GAS MAN.
@thebearclawjones It really was a gas for that hip doll. That old weird cat was the one who dug the scene and he put more than holes in her head. That was a real trip!!!!
been trying to buy as many of these movies on DVD. The problem is. Buying a collection set. A person can buy 2 sets. With most of the movies being on both.
Lol! @ 0:07 sec. "Don't be a Drag! 'ya know how 'ya Flip Me!" Lol! gotta love that 50's Hip Teen Lingo! say that today, and your classmates would Disown you! ha-ha. my how times change huh?
The movie you're thinking of is The Cape Canaveral Monsters, with Katherine Victor and Jason Johnson. It has it's moments, despite a budget that would make the Corman movie at hand look like a James Cameron production.
Now I'm all mixed up. I saw this movie about thirty years ago and I could swear there waa scene in which a humaniod alien sabotages a rocket launch into space with the use of a small misslie launcher. The alien gets into a car crash and gets his arm ripped off. I'll never forget the sight of the arm hanging limply out of the car window. I always thought it was from Not of This Earth but now I'm wrong. Does anyone know what movie this is?
Like Dude, this is the kind of flick we used to take chicks to the drive-in because while they were getting wrapped up in the movie, we were copping feels.
this sequenze is to bright when the boy friend says i suppose its gettting late it looks like mid afternoon with the car by the side walk it rivals what ed wood did with continuity to night and day well eds was worse roger corman actually did very well teaming with vincent price doing three films based on edgar allan poe stories.
I saw this movie once as a kid early one Saturday morning way back in the 70s and never forgot the image of the dismembered arm hanging out of the car door. It had a weird outworldly atmosphere to it that I loved as a kid. Perhaps it was on Chlller Theater that I saw this movie. What I loved most about movies (especially horror movies ) of the 50s and 60s was that all the characters were adults. What could be more subversive than to see an adult in danger, attacked by some monster.
I have looked for years for this movie, as I remember watching this movie as a child and getting really scared! LOL I never thought to look it up on you tube. What a treat!! I always thought the main character was played by Ray Milland, and discovered I was wrong. I guess I thought this, because Paul Birch does look something like Ray Milland
This guy was the ORIGINAL "MAN in BLACK"!!

Despite its low budget and ocasionally cheesy acting, this was a rather neat and provocative little sci-fi gem that is way too underappreciated.
