The Beast with a Million Eyes (1955)



A dysfunctional family operating an isolated date farm in the California desert is threatened by the arrival of an extra-terrestrial.

Extremely low-budget sci-fi horror with some risible 'shock' moments and working mostly on creepy atmosphere takes way too long to give the audience a short glimpse of its truly ridiculous alien.

Halliwell (no star): "Semi-professional would-be horror story, on a level with the Corman horrors of the period."

Maltin**: "Imaginative though poorly executed sci-fi melodrama..."

Psychotronic/Michael Weldon: "...this is an effective little science-fiction movie... "
