Mystery Photo 1-27

It is always nice to see a lot of correct answers come over when a classic ’50s photo is posted, especially when the creatures were created by Paul Blaisdell. The film is Invasion of the Saucer Men (1957), directed by Edward L. Cahn. Blaisdell went through hell to come up with a designed that appeased both AIP heads Sam Arkoff and James Nicholson, but what he finally did come up with definitely hit the mark because they are still being remembered today. Congrats to the following for sending in the correct answer: Hoby Abernathy, Gregory Avery, Todd Barwick, Christopher Dyer, Dave Fronto, Bob Hartman, Bryan Senn, and Michael Shields. Well done!

Now we’re going to go back with something a little more obscure. Trust me, I’m not making these hard to stump everyone as much as trying to bring attention to these rare and near lost films. So yes, there is method for my madness! Take a look and see if you recognize where this shot is from. As always, please do not post your answers here so that others can have a chance at guessing. Just send us your guess in an email (jon@kitleyskrypt.com). Good Luck!
