They Came From Outer Space (1967)

THEY CAME FROM BEYOND SPACE (1967) - Well, I was hoping for somthing at least entertaining with the British B- atmosphere and accents, but it was boring. The title also gave me hope. The ray gun was the worst and after firing it they edited in a swirling whirlpool effect with out any image. Anyway aliens invade the earth through rocks from the sky like in DAY OF THE TRIFFIDS and when someone gets near the rocks the alien spirit possesses the human and takes it's body. In the end the lead character who has a metal plate in his head and is unaffected by the rocks saves the day with the help of acouple others. One of the funny parts is that they make a helmet for the friend that looks like a speghetti strainer. I gave you the spoiler one this one hoping that you don't waste your time purchasing it because it certainly won't be played on tv anytime in our lifetime. I could be wrong though.

Both NIGHT FRIGHT and THEY CAME FROM OUTER SPACE could definately be done by Mystery Science Theater.

I agree that this one is pretty bad.  I gave the DVD away because I knew I'd never watch it again.

Watch DAY OF THE TRIFFIDS or QUATERMASS 2 a.k.a. ENEMY FROM SPACE instead.

I like DAY OF THE TRIFFIDS. Good filmaking. The security guard getting killed while eating (guarding) in the greenhouse ! ! ! Saltwater destroys the alien plant creatures.
