Here are two I DVR'd Friday night

The Brain Eaters (1958)- Basically a Puppet Masters knock off, only these little furry critters are from down below.

A cone shaped ship appears at the edge of town and the mayor and other officials go missing for three days. When they return they are found to have these critters attached to the back of their necks and are obviously being controlled by them.

The bad news is the only way to kill the critters is to kill the host.

Pretty run of the mill drive-in fare, with one exception. Leonard Nimoy (billed as Leonard Nemoy) makes an appearance as a member of a long lost science team who is now acting a spokesman for the evil parasites who claim to be bringing order to the surface world.




The Robot vs. The Aztec Mummy (1958) - Doctor perform hypnotic regression on his wife only to find out she was an Aztec princess. So they take her to some ruins looking for a magical breast shield and bracelet. Problem is they were guarded by a mummy who wants them back.

Enter the evil mad scientists who wants the treasure for himself, only the mummy throws him in a snake pit and causes his head henchman to get burned with acid.

Five years later and mad boy's back and has built a "human robot"  to fight the Mummy for the artifacts.


Man this thing is terrible. It has one really bad dub job and one of the characters is constantly narrating.

I thought I was gonna fall asleep before the robot made his appearance. He is really human as the guy's face is clearly visible in the suit. Walking in that thing must've really been a b***h, there were no knee joints in those stovepipe legs. I could just imagine the beating his crotch took.  Well, I suppose it was all in the name of Art.

I believe this one has been MST3K'd.

I never saw brain eaters, is it worth trying to track it down?
But I have seen Robot vs. Aztec, You have my sypathies thats not an easy one to get through.

I do agree, The Robot vs. The Aztec Mummy is only for veteran badmovie watchers. But if you can, it's awesome (especially when drinking with a group of funny people).

I agree with you about The Brain Eaters, it was about as average as it gets.  Aztec Mummy looks entertaining though.  Heck, I managed to stay awake through Wrestling Women vs. the Aztec Mummy, I can't imagine The Robot being too much worse.

i love tcm showing these movies but i only wish they came on earlier
