Village of the Giants (1965)

Opening Statement: The H.G. Wells novel (which I read in high school) doesn't acknowledge several serious flaws in the concept of 40-foot human beings. We all now that the large man or animal gets, the more its body has to deal with the increased weight and the strain puts on the bones and organs.

X: The Man with the X-Ray Eyes (1963)

Opening Statement: The saving grace of this low-budget movie with unimpressive FX is the way Ray Milland gets this strange power . . . but can't turn it off!

Furthermore, it gets stronger and stronger until the wacky and unsatisfying ending — which, in the comic book version, is the suggestion that he suddenly sees God . . . somewhere out in space!

The Killer Shrews (1959)

Opening Statement: Well bless my soul, they actually made a sequel to this movie in 2012, called Return of the Killer Shrews!

The terrible CGI shrews are definitely not a plus, but the cast includes the stars of the original — James Best — along with his fellow stars from The Dukes of Hazzard, John Schneider (Bo Duke) and Rick Hurst (Deputy Cletus Hogg).
