DEVIL GIRL FROM MARS: An evil Martian female travels to Earth in search of human specimens to be used to repopulate the desolate red planet. Uncooperative men will be destroyed painfully, either as fuel for the ship or at the whim of a deadly robot. However, if the aliens are really as lovely as Head Martianess Hazel Court, who wouldn't cooperate? THE ASTOUNDING SHE MONSTER: Edward D. Wood, Jr., served as "consultant" to first time director Ronnie Ashcroft for this Atomic Age cult classic. In it, a geologist living in the woods with his dog has his house taken over first by kidnappers holding an heiress captive and then by a voluptuous blonde alien in nylons and heels whose flying saucer crashed nearby. It turns out this visitor has arrived to bring a message to the geologist, as well as to tempt him with her literally deadly body. A unique fusion of film noir and 1950s sci-fi cheese, THE ASTOUNDING SHE-MONSTER is an entertaining and frequently hilarious cult classic. MESA OF LOST WOMEN: A mad scientist (Jackie Coogan, "Uncle Fester" from TV's THE ADDAMS FAMILY) has hidden out in the desert known as Zarpa Mesa in Mexico. Here he develops giant spiders, deadly dwarves, and, through the use of a synthesized derivative of spider venom, a race of killer superwomen that cannot be stopped once they choose their sexual prey. This hugely enjoyable film was made by the legendary Ron Ormond, a director whose biggest claim to fame these days is his close association with Ed Wood. However, his movies demand to be seen in their own right, as Mr. Ormond's taste for the bizarre is enough to carry a film by itself. [More]
