This week's #Monsterdon movie is CREATURE WITH THE ATOM BRAIN (1955), by a goddamn landslide. It's about a Nazi creating atomic zombies to help a mobster regain power? That actually sounds kind of cool, I wonder how they'll flub it. Long talky scenes? Big slabs of silence? Misogyny? All this and more, I have no doubt.

It's free on Tubi and YouTube and there's a version on Archive.org for downloadin': https://archive.org/details/horror-films-of-the-1950s/1955-06-22+-+Creature+with+the+Atom+Brain+(1955).mp4

Once again it is an hour until , the weekly monster movie watch party. If you want to avoid a bunch of toots about a hokey sci fi flick, block the tag.

This week features STRANGER FROM VENUS (1954), in which a bug-eyed monster tries to get Earth to turn down the bass! No, I think it's about nuclear disarmament or somesuch.

We start at 9pm eastern, and you can find the movie on Tubi or YouTube. See you there!

watch thread:

Tonight, we're watching - this implies the existence of "guy we already know well from Venus" . As usual I know nothing at all about this going in, I'm expecting that strangers will become friends, lions will lie down with lambs, Lessons Will Be Learnt but who knows, let's take this journey together

@twaret Could we consider throwing Pacific Rim into the mix for next week? It's got monsters and action and a few good actors. It's actually a pretty good film.

We were promised a pretty sharp jacket/dickey combination and the film fell short.

Another is in the can!

Thanks to @Taweret for hosting!

Tonight's feature (aka ) from 1954 was full of information about Venusians in lieu of any plot. We learned,

  • Venusians don't like beer, but do like water
  • Venusians like turtlenecks
  • Venusians can heal wounds and limps
  • Venusians can only breath Earth atmosphere for 100 hours, or else!
  • Venusians speak all languages
  • Venusians like magnets
  • Venusians don't like to run

The Venusian ran so weird that he died. What an ending.

Our Venusian has a bit of an Austrian accent, if I'm hearing it right.

It's got a weird over-dub sounding to it though. I wonder if he's voiced by a different person.
