Teenagers From Outer Space
The last of the Friday Night Frights at the Manitou Springs Heritage Center featured "Teenagers From Outer Space". Have you ever seen it? What a hoot of an old B-movie. It was my nieces recommendation and the audience on Friday night laughed throughout. The movie included many memorable lines and images. My favorites were "You make me Angry" or "There is Grandpa trying to cross the street". And the monster - you'll never view cajun food the same way again. Watch it with friends. Watch it high. Just don't take it seriously!
I haven't seen that one, we've been watching some wonderful B's lately with Vincent Price!
ReplyDeleteSounds like a classic!
ReplyDeleteThe movie's basic story idea isn't that crazy.
ReplyDeleteAn exploration team is looking for planets to develop into agricultural worlds to support their empire. While running some suitability tests on one planet, one of the team kills a native life form. Another team member finds something that suggests to him that the creature was actually owned, which means the world is inhabited and they have to leave it alone. He goes off alone to find more information. Then the test results come in - the planet is perfect for development! The team leader reports the good news back to HQ, and is informed that the team member who went off exploring is Dear Leader's son... Now they have to find him and bring him back, before he can jeopardize their mission....
In good hands, one could do a lot with this....
And to boot they wanted to grow large crustaceans, a tasty food indeed.
