The 50s (2 of 3) - Spacetime Sally's Beautiful Tomorrow, 1950s atompunk inspired sci-fi. This has that classic 50s feel and acts as a bridge between the vintage 20s/30s/40s inspired work to the more modern New Wave sci-fi of the 60s and 70s.

The Colossus of New York theatrical trailer

In The Unknown Terror, a millionaire (John Howard) leads a remote jungle expedition to find the legendary “Cave of the Dead” where his wife’s (Mala Powers) brother had disappeared long ago. Instead, they stumble upon a mad doctor who has created a horde of foam-spewing, fungus-covered monster-men. In The Colossus of New York, when a brilliant scientist (Ross Martin) is accidentally killed, his preserved brain is transferred to the body of a giant robot so that it can continue to serve mankind. But when it gains awareness of its own hideousness, this steel colossus embarks on a rampage of destruction. In Destination Inner Space, when an object of unknown origin is detected in the area of an underwater laboratory, scientists investigate and come face to face with the object—an extraterrestrial saucer! They board the craft and discover a mysterious cylinder, which they take back to the lab for closer inspection. It is then that events take a monstrous turn!

Bride of the Monster (1955)

Like most of the works of Ed Wood, a movie whose reputation for being a terrible movie is more than a little exaggerated. In reality, it's fairly average for a mid-50s sci-fi horror film. Honestly, some of the oddities, as well as a great performance from Bella Legosi, might put it a little bit above average in terms of enjoyability. Don't get me wrong, it's not a good film, just miles away from the worst.

3/10
