Attack of the Giant Leeches (1959)



A backwoods game warden and a local doctor discover that giant leeches are responsible for disappearances and deaths in a local swamp, but the local police don't believe them.

Skid-row monster movie is pretty bad, but has some creepy atmosphere and the creatures are hilarious.

Halliwell: "The bottom of the Corman/AIP barrel, good only for a few unintentional laughs."

Maltin*1/2: "Ludicrous hybrid of white trash and monster genres..."

The Brain Eaters (1958)



A huge, seemingly alien structure has been found jutting out of the earth sending parasites from the center of the earth to infiltrate the town, taking control of the authorities and workers.

Hilariously bad Sci-fi shocker with a very limited entertainment value, even as a baddie; notable for offering an early Leonard Nimoy in a small role - and an extra point goes to the great movie poster.

Halliwell (no star): "Low-budget imitation of Invasion of The Body Snatchers, but with little evidence of intelligence in its making."

Maltin**: "Some mildly scary moments."
