Yow! It’s been a while since the last thrilling chapter of Armageddon Creeped Out, hasn’t it? Well, I’m workin’ up to an update… there were some computer problems a while back, and then some of those ol’ Winter blahs set in… but don’t worry, the Chicken of Wrath will be back to set things to rights.

At least there’s a new Video Goodie! And it truly is a goodie: Not Of This Earth (1957), Roger Corman’s engaging tale of a guy in dark glasses running his own blood drive. No, he’s not a vampire… he’s not even from this planet. It’s featured down below the banners.

They lived dangerously in the 1950s; kidshow host Andy Devine and his fun-filled gang of puppets go on a magic plane ride… and they nosedive right into a nuclear weapon facility! Oh boy! You can read more about this happy comic over at Stupid Comics… and see lots more weird funnies while you’re there!

Wouldn’t it be great if there was a Fission Chicken animated feature? You can see a short ‘teaser’ for such by clicking the left thumbnail below! The right thumbnail will display the earlier “Squash” bit:

Wow… I hadn’t seen this one for many years! Not Of This Earth is Roger Corman’s 1957 classic about a dour gentleman from planet Davanna, here to check out the blood supply of the natives. He takes off his dark glasses to zap victims, and takes their blood with equipment he carries around in an aluminum case. (He also keeps a head-crunching umbrella-critter in there.) There have been a couple of remakes, but this is the first and the best! With Paul Birch, Beverly Garland, Morgan Jones, Jonathan Haze, Dick Miller. You can see it in six parts on YouTube!

Here’s the chilling trailer:
