Movies about an arachnid, a bug woman, and a weird little man from a wandering planet.

I'll betcha 20 Space Force Bucks that you guys can think of fascinating replies for these threads! Here's my wager! (Hey, there's something strange about that serial number. Confused)

Tarantula (1955)

The Spike wrote:
Using a real spider inserted onto the screened landscape, and then having it crawling over smartly molded miniature sets, really adds to the creepy fun unfolding.

Ah-HA! So that's how they got the spider to look as if it was really walking around actual terrain! I didn't know that. Very Happy

Nice write-up, Colonel Spike. I like the way you presented all the fascinating facts and left the juicy stuff for me, All Sci-Fi's resident lecher. Wink

The juicy stuff is, of course, Miss Mara Corda — who is either the most intelligent hottie in history or the hottest smart person, with the possible exception of astronaut/actress Mae Jemison. (She was in an episode of TNG.)



Clearly Miss Corday is a woman I could love for her mind . . . and then work my way down. When she flirts, she makes a man feel like a star-struck Romeo and a drooling idiot, both at the same time.

I'm required by law to state that she was Playboy's Miss October 1958. Her interests are molecular biology, sunbathing in the nude, and fleeing in terror from giant arachnids. I could say she's a well-rounded woman, but that's too predictable . . .

Anyway, here's her Playboy picture and a few other snapshots from her family album.

The Wasp Woman (1959)

It's easy to make a good film sound good, and a bad film sound bad -- but a well-written review makes the reader appreciate what is good about a bad film while warning him about what's bad.

It also makes the reader want to watch the movie, because suddenly he's in the mood. If you're in the mood, folks, download it from YouTube —

_________

— and watch this aging executive —



— turn herself into this lovely lady —



— with a very fine pair of legs —



— and then into this creepy creature.



Ironically, the poster shows just the opposite of the movie: instead of a woman with a wasp's head, it shows a wasp with a woman's head!

The Man from Planet X (1951)

Shadowlandz100, that is one impressive model. I'm sure you have other creations to share with us in our Sci-Fi Models and Dioramas — which is currently empty, thanks to the demise of the old board! Sad

Help! Shocked

Now, about your model of the original X-Man! Very Happy The teeny-tiny light on his little-bitty face — love the shadows and highlights! Awesome . . .
