Thanks for putting Davids video up Crow ! I found it on the HMA,a few weeks ago, and screen capped the hell out of it. This is without a doubt the best view of the mask without holding it in your own hands. David's copy has a lot more black around the...

According to the liner notes for the SWV release of MONSTERS CRASH THE PAJAMA PARTY, the mask was originally created for use in a spook show.

Those rivets on the band that connects the clear dome to the rest of his head are a nice touch.

<< I found out from the alien himself, that the man behind the mask is none other than our friend Bob Burns! << Now that you mention it, the resemblance becomes obvious! XOXO, Bob!!

I agree, I found this much more entertaining than its reputation. But then, I feel the same way about KING DINOSAUR too, so take that for what it's worth.

I might want to get myself audited then, based on your advice.

I saw SPACE MONSTER once... hopefully never again. This film is almost as enjoyable as an IRS audit.

If You have Amazon prime You can watch the 'cleanest' version of this one I have yet seen. I sure wish they had A download purchase option for this one. I can't help but smile each time I view this flick!

Yep, had to do the double-take to make sure it was "mammals"! There's also some very loopy confusion about the difference between "solar systems", "galaxies" and "universes", the screenwriter clearly didn't know better than "it's all outa space stuff! the...

Isn't it funny when someone coughs up a whopper like that. I can never believe my ears. "He didn't just say mammals did he? Nah, it musta been the first land animals were fish." That's a classic, I'll be listening carefully for that next time. And tryi...

Thanks for the heads-up Cucamonga - I must have seen parts of this at some point since I remembered the silly crabs. Anyway, this is pretty fun stuff - another one of those rare movies as others have noted that really seems out of step with when it ...

I just figured out today, that if you are an Amazon Prime customer, Space Probe Taurus is among the streaming movies included in the price. It is a sharp looking print, looks like about a 1.66:1 aspect ratio.

My dog, Oats, had never seen this so we watched it together in the back yard this morning. She liked the part where the alien space ship is making "meep, meep" noises. Curious noises often interest her. She also seemed interested when Dr. Andros is swimmi...

When we watched this movie when we were kids we always fancied that the alien had taken to interstellar space in search of Blistex, since he had obviously exhausted his own planet's supply.

Here's a fun behind the scenes shot if you will. The title alien was created by legendary mask maker Don Post Sr. The mask wasn't originaly created with any particular film in mind and Post's intention was to use it for hire as a rental of sorts. It ap...

I found a seller of a letterboxed, MOD quality DVD of this movie. I don't know the OAR but comparing screen grabs it is cropped top and bottom but not sure about added picture on the sides. Again, very sharp picture, must be from cable or Netflix. 8 bucks...
