True...but isn't Patricia Laffan hot looking in that Martian bondage-rubber suit?

ASTOUNDING SHE MONSTER is absolutely positively one of the cheapest, nothing movies ever made. Tick it off in the so-bad-life-is-too-short-to-waste-on-this-goddamn-fucking-shit category. And this is coming from me who nourishes on the tit of these kinds of nutrients. The camp element evaporates within the first five minutes.
Yeah, this thing has no redeeming value whatsoever...but man, when I was a kid in the sixties growing up in Cleveland this thing seemed to always be on heavy rotation on Ghoulardi's (aka Ernie Anderson, father of director PT Anderson) Shock Theater (which, in turn, had an emminent influence on me and my taste for junk pop culture for ever more). I seem to recall, although it could've perhaps happened with some other schlock horror B movie, that Ghoulardi may have inserted himself into the movie on more than one ocassion following the She Monster around, something he often did with other movies...or suddenly insert a clip of some old guy licking his nose to the tune of The Rivingtons' Papa-Oom-Mow-Mow.
In any event,
Astounding She Monster fascinated me and scared the crap out of me as I recall. Maybe it was the image of this glowing babe in that outfit that appeared to be worn so tight she looked nude wandering in the woods in the middle of the night...I dunno. Total crap, but its somehow imprinted on my brain.
