I can easily imagine the asparagus men being the inspiration for the Sandpeople/Jawas in Star wars...

The dead scarecrow aliens here must have been an inspiration for David Lynch and Twin Peaks....lol....

When I was young this was the "Star Wars" of the day. Little did I know at the time that George Lucas was also watching.
