  • 29 mei 2014 · ... 1957 The Monolith Monsters. And it's really rather special. The story is the standard 50s alien invasion tale with an intriguing twist. A ...

  • When I was a child, the scariest place on earth was the desert region of the American Southwest. I'd never been there, at least not in person, but childhood fascination with American 50s science fiction films had convinced me that just about anything could be lying in wait for those foolish enough to wander off the dusty main road. Two films in particular haunted my formative years, Gordon Douglas's 1954 Them! and Jack Arnold's 1953 It Came From Outer Space. They left me in no doubt that the New Mexico deserts were home to monstrous ants, and that skulking away in the Arizona Badlands were slug-like, cycloptic blobs that could shape-shift into humans and replace my loved ones. Creepiest of all, these deserts had a noise, a kind of high-pitched, unearthly theremin whine. I loved them to bits. Being scared by such films remains one of the fondest memories I have of my childhood.
