yeah, the 71 minute jem about Tobanga the tree monster. thought it was a half-decent flick when I first saw it decades ago on nyc channel 5's saturday morning b movie slot.
sure the tree monster is silly but it still works for me. professionally made with some good sci-fi thrills.the native babes are hoddees

I remember reading a summary or review of this movie many years ago (I think it might have been in TV Guide). It said FROM HELL IT CAME: To hell with it.

I think it's sad that Master Monster Maker Paul Blaisdell, who actually wore most of the costumes he made- got p**sed on and dumped by AIP.  Bluesad

He made the monsters for-

.the BEAST WITH A MILLION EYES (1955)
.the DAY THE WORLD ENDED (1955) *
.IT CONQUERED THE WORLD (1956)*
.NOT OF THIS EARTH (1957)
.the SHE CREATURE (1956) *
.INVASION OF THE SAUCER MEN (1957)
.VOODOO WOMAN (1957)*
.FROM HELL IT CAME (1957)
.GHOST OF DRAG STRIP HOLLOW (1958) *

* He was in the monster suit too!

I really like the monsters actual design but seeing it in motion it's far less cool.

'motion' is a very relative term here.

    Earth is visited by a GIANT ANTIMATTER SPACE BUZZARD! Gawk at the amazingly bad bird puppet, or chuckle over the silly dialog. This is one of the greatest b-movies ever made.
