Name That Movie!

[datsunaholic]

Yeah, not anything I've seen. So random guess time:




"IT Came from Outer Space"


(There's plenty of awful 50s Sci-Fi to choose from)

[MajGenl.Meade]

[Lord Jim]

Datsun and Meade are both wrong, but you could get the right answer by taking something from each of their guesses...

[datsunaholic]

But "Music For An Exotic Monster Beach Party in Outer Space" isn't a movie, it's a music album.

[Big RR]

finally, a movie I recognize, and I didn't even need Meade's clue. I'll wait my usual day or two.

[Lord Jim]

Some more quotes:

[Upon discovering the skeleton in Simpson's office]

Hilda: I'm not going to keep a job where this sort of thing goes on.

**********************************************

[Yes, I can see where that sort of thing could be rather off putting]

**************************************

Derek: You make me angry. But I like you very much.

*******************************
Betty Morgan: Derek, this is Alice.

Alice Woodward: Derek! Hey, I like that. Come on in! The water's fine!

They just don't write dialog like that any more...

A couple of more non-quote clues:

If you didn't see it on a local Chiller Theater-type show, you may have caught it on Mystery Science Theater 3000...(early 90s)

If you're going to fight the monster in this movie, be sure to bring plenty of lemons and drawn butter...

[Big RR]

And a big nutcracker.

[RayThom]

OK, one last try. My brainpan is starting to ache.



Not to be confused with "The Shape of Water."

[Long Run]

Not exactly The Wonderful Flight to the Mushroom Planet.

[Scooter]

The only guess that comes to mind that would fit the dialogue might be Earth Girls Are Easy, but that would have come out about 30 years too late.

[MajGenl.Meade]

[Earth Girls are Easy - terrific movie and Goddess in Progress best album, like almost ever]

If you're going to fight the monster in this movie, be sure to bring plenty of lemons and drawn butter...

All this movie needed was a few alien adolescents to give it credibility. I must have got it this time, LJ - right? Huh? Huh?

[datsunaholic]

OK, so we have lobsters, or we can try this one...



"Attack of the Crab Monsters".

[Lord Jim]

[Earth Girls are Easy - terrific movie and Goddess in Progress best album, like almost ever]

I agree about Earth Girls Are Easy (and Miss Brown's album) but while there is one plot element similarity (alien boy falls for female Terran) EGAE is Citizen Kane compared to this movie...

[RayThom]

"Crab Monster" That reminds me of a young lady who used to party with the guys at the local tappy.

Ah, but I digress.

[MajGenl.Meade]

Well, if it's not lobster.....

[datsunaholic]

"Teenagers from Outer Space"


(I really can't believe how many campy "sci fi" movies were made in the 50s.)

[Lord Jim]

[datsunaholic]

Oh, crab, that was a dart thrown against the wall. OK, now I have to find something...

0) Passport, please.

1) Y-Yes, sir. We're just passing through. We're on our way to France, sir. I have nothing to declare, sir. I throw myself at the mercy of the court!

2) We've only been two minutes and already he's embarrassing us.

[RayThom]

Praise the lord, I think I got one.
